Feminism tries to "rip out" what is most beautiful in a woman: delicacy, subtlety, emotional sensitivity and great strength of spirit and body (this is a stereotype that a woman is the weaker sex; in fact, a woman's body is capable of more effort than just one-time effort, as it is with men). The features listed here naturally predispose a woman to the unique and extraordinary role of a mother.
This is mentioned by John Paul II, who in his Letter Mulieris Dignitatem devotes the entire sixth chapter to motherhood.
The Holy Father emphasizes the physiological and biological "improvements" of a woman's body to the role of a mother.
Nevertheless, he is opposed to reducing this function to the biological aspect only. Such a "reduced" image would go hand in hand with a materialistic understanding of man and the world, we read in the document.
Then, unfortunately, we would lose what is most essential: motherhood as a human fact and phenomenon is fully explained on the basis of the truth about the person.
Motherhood is related to the personal structure of femininity and to the personal dimension of the gift: "I have received a man from the Lord" (Genesis 4: 1). Parents are gifted with a child by the Creator. From the woman's point of view, this is particularly related to the "disinterested gift of self". Mary's words at the Annunciation, "Let it be done to me according to your word!", Signify a woman's readiness to give such a gift of herself and to accept a new life.
Pope Saint John Paul II.
