I had trouble closing my dresser drawers this afternoon. I pushed harder on the thick padding of shirts and pants. No movement. It was full - really, really full. I tossed the remaining pieces of clothing from the neatly folded laundry pile back onto my bed.
Now I must interject, it’s not that this dresser [...]

I liked your post Tim. It’s good to see guys that really value the Proverbs 31 woman. Especially in the midst of all the feminist ideas floating around - it’s really sad that she doesn’t seem to be valued very much anymore.

Well Agent Tim, my parents would never confine me to “the home,” because they recognize that talent, interests and ability are not defined by gender.
And the following is off-topic, but I am on a strict Saturday night time limit, and must make it short and encompassing.
I “am” another girl who can “actually write,” but my folks do not believe it is appropriate for me to have my own “blog” at my age.
They do believe that is critical that their daughters reach for their dreams and fulfill their potential. I have two sisters in pre-med, and I am going to be a vet. My younger sisters are also critter-crazy.
Not all homeschooling parents think that the wider world should be closed to their daughters.
And in terms of the marital relationship, my Dad says that “obedience” is for children and pets, not wives. My Mom just smiles knowingly.
I thought you should know that the homeschooling movement is made up of people from all walks of Christian life, and that the impression that homeschoolers are, among other issues, all about enforcing specific gender roles… harms the cause.
The homeschooling movement will always be mistrusted by the wider world if the plan is to limit us girls.
Just thought you should know.
