WOMEN RIGHTS IN COMBAT FROM THE FEMINIST POINT OF VIEW Donald R. Fox

As an older Christian gentleman I am shocked many times by the current views of the so-called Feminist Movement. Further, as a Christian gentleman, I esteem and respect womanhood. As in past generations gentlemen had an inner drive to protect women from harm. We were taught to use polite language when we addressed older people. Common sense has always taught right thinking men or women that equal pay; salary for the same work was right. Regardless of one's gender, a factory worker doing the same job deserves equal pay. A female medical doctor, etc. should be paid at an equal wage as a male M.D. I believe you can observe from this older gentleman, I believe that right is right and fair is fair.

Honest thinking folks want fairness. However, with the radical Feminist Movement in full swing, I would suggest that maybe they would want our girls to shave their heads like men. Pun intended. Years ago when I was a young man, and a soldier, I remember the saying, “God, Country, Apple Pie and Mom.” We understood these basic facts. Fast-forward to our timeline and the new normal . The bottom line is, women are not men and men are not women. No matter how hard the Feminist Movement tries, these basic facts will not change. To prove the insane direction some are demanding, note the following quote and refer to the full article. The judgment call is up to you. As for me, I will comply with the Word of God, the Bible.

WHAT IS THE BASIC TRUTH CONCERNING THE FEMINIST MOVEMENT? ANSWER: A REJECTION OF GOD ALMIGHTY AND HIS WORD, THE BIBLE. (Our National Heritage and Christian Ethics have always esteemed and honored womanhood as weaker vessel.)

“And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him. And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. (Genesis 2:20-25 KJV)

”Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.” (1 Peter 3:7 KJV)

As unto the weaker vessel ... ”Modern women resent such a view as this; but the unanimous opinion of all mankind for centuries confirms it as a fact. Plato said, "Lighter tasks are to be given to women than to men because of the weakness of their sex"; and as long as golf courses have one set of rules for men and another for women, every country club on earth bears continual witness to it. In those lands where women do not enjoy the chivalrous preference and honor, which Christianity has brought to them, their status is invariably one of progressive reduction and oppression. In turning away from Christianity and staking all of their hopes upon a newly won legal status, the great mass of womankind will eventually find that they have been woefully short-changed and cheated.” (Reference: Commentary on 1 Peter 3:7 concerning “weaker vessel” by James Burton Coffman)
