I grew up in a different religion, but still with the patriarchal emphasis. <br /><br />It took me a lot longer than you to go beyond disdain. I was in the "disdain" mode until I was in my twenties!Ambaahttp://www.patheos.com/blogs/whitehindunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819060966829014139.post-46862156887085464322011-06-30T14:57:32.607-05:002011-06-30T14:57:32.607-05:00I love it!

Also, I wrote about this feeling of being a foreigner in my own country, this cultural disconnection from my peers, here: http://lovejoyfeminism.blogspot.com/2011/06/cultural-disconnection.htmlLibby Annehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10562805251128821984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819060966829014139.post-42642084465622858102011-06-22T10:10:22.529-05:002011-06-22T10:10:22.529-05:00Someday I am going to write a letter to Rod and St...Someday I am going to write a letter to Rod and Staff about their tract they sent out regarding how to teach your children good values. They talked all about making sure your girls understood modesty and proper attitude, and not a word in the instructions to the boys about respecting women and girls and exercising self-control. Being married to a man who was sexually abused as a toddler and young child, I'm just dying to know what they see as the solution to that. Just how, exactly, did a four-year-old little boy "tempt" a grown man to be sexually attracted to him? And the obvious conclusion - one I doubt they will accept - is that sexual assault stems from the wickedness of the perpetrator and not from the promiscuity of the victim.Pippihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05598890631695015818noreply@blogger.com
