00:00:05.800
Well, like I said earlier, women have twice the stress-related diseases, heart disease,
00:00:12.660
We weren't created for the stress of the workforce.
00:00:20.200
Their marriages are, their divorce rate is higher.
00:00:28.400
I, for them to be in the workforce, just, we, we were created for the homes because
00:00:34.780
biblically we're supposed to be under our dad's authority until marriage.
00:00:39.320
And then under our husband's authority, God wants men, good men, protecting and providing
00:00:45.980
And even in first Timothy five, we're given instruction for widows.
00:00:50.640
The older women are supposed to be taken care of by their families.
00:00:56.360
And the older, the families are first supposed to provide for them.
00:01:00.920
If they don't have family, then relatives, if no relatives in the churches are to provide
00:01:04.980
And the younger women, he says, get married, get married, have children, guide the home.
00:01:10.420
He doesn't say, go out and get a job and support yourself.
00:01:12.820
And never in scripture does it, is, is there a command for women to go out and provide?
00:01:20.600
And it's, but now with women having the earning power that they have, and it's only because
00:01:25.780
of men and what they built for us and daycare, the birth control pill, public schools, women
00:01:32.400
could not have the careers that they have and do what they do without what men have invented
00:01:38.100
So it's all a kind of a fantasy, actually, because I watched this reality show years ago.
00:01:44.020
I wish I, I wrote a post about it, but this couple of modern day couple, she's very leftist.
00:01:50.940
An old couple, more traditional, went back to living like the 1800s for a month.
00:01:58.340
She's in the kitchen and the guys are doing a plow out in the field with a horse.
00:02:03.400
And she goes, I'm stuck in the kitchen because I can't do most of that stuff.
00:02:07.960
I, all, all I have to do is in the kitchen, you know, and, and taking care of the home.
00:02:12.400
It's like, yeah, that's how it was before men invented all these things that allowed women
00:02:18.120
to act like their men and leave their homes and go into the workforce and all the, all
00:02:24.620
you see, you, I don't know you, I drive by where they're up on telephone poles, electric
00:02:30.260
And it's always men and doing construction and rebuilding roads and buildings.
00:02:37.060
They're the ones that are on the oil rigs and doing the hard sustaining work of culture,
00:02:43.360
I'm waiting for the, there's a building being built next door.
00:02:47.160
I'm waiting for all the women, the feminists to line up and go build that building.
00:02:54.680
And that's when I realized I was like, women are fighting for equality, but we can't have
00:03:00.740
it because we literally cannot do the jobs that make society run.
00:03:05.340
So why are we being paid more now under 30 in major cities?
00:03:11.060
When I know, think if, think if all of a sudden men just disappeared, all men just were taken
00:03:24.360
You know, who knows how to go to the major electrical things or whatever, or plumbing or the sewer
00:03:33.840
How long would the men survive until they died off?
00:03:40.500
My advice to women is that they be godly because when they're godly, they're good.
00:03:48.100
When they definitely love the Lord and his ways, kind.
00:03:55.000
My husband, my dad, my sons, they're just, my son-in-laws, they're just good men.
00:04:01.780
They wouldn't think of actually harming a woman.
00:04:04.940
They protect, provide, they work hard, and then working hard.
00:04:13.900
You want a man who provides for you, and you must find one who wants you, doesn't expect
00:04:18.600
you to work and provide and do any of that, but wants you to be able to be home, have children,
00:04:28.400
If you can find a godly man, a true godly man, and a man who works hard, that's why I
00:04:45.360
My dad warned me about marrying him because I was always going to be poor.
00:04:56.400
He didn't want a different route, but, um, so, and we had zero money.
00:05:04.560
And I did want tall because I'm, I'm, I was five, eight, I'm five, seven now, but I, I
00:05:12.900
Um, he's six, one, but, and, and I, you know, I think you have to be attracted to them
00:05:19.800
I feel that when women are in their thirties though, and they've met a man who's really
00:05:25.480
good, godly man works really hard and she, they meet all of his qualifications, but they
00:05:32.820
It's like, well, you can become attraction because attraction comes and goes.
00:05:39.800
You don't have constant attraction for your husband when you're mad and angry with him
00:05:44.960
So, um, the good godly and working hard are far more than attraction.
00:05:51.140
But if you've really prayed about the spouse, you like my husband, I, we just connected when
00:06:04.200
And that's another thing is having the same goals in life, wanting the same things.
00:06:09.180
And we, I just wanted babies and be home and he wanted that too.
00:06:23.660
I don't know if you want that kind of guy there.
00:06:27.380
Um, and this is a Tim Tebow, godly man, but most of them had slept with a ton of women.
00:06:34.440
And I don't know, I, I think you just want it, a good man.
00:06:43.000
You want a man who's treasures, will treasure his wife, will treasure you.
00:06:48.480
You might not be able to find a virgin, you know, um, but God redeems and restores that.
00:06:54.720
And even women who aren't virgins have, can be great.
00:06:58.980
God's transforming power can be great wives and mothers, you know, he, anything we've
00:07:04.900
done in our past, God can, none of us are perfect.
00:07:09.980
We've all done things we regret, but you'll still never find a perfect man.
00:07:15.080
If you just find one that, um, you connect with, you have the same visions and goals,
00:07:20.840
a good man, you want a good man, make sure your dad.
00:07:25.220
You told me that make sure your dad, he can, your dad can ask him any questions he wants
00:07:30.800
and that your dad loves him and approves of him because you love your dad so much.
00:07:35.720
You definitely, absolutely want his approval for the man that you marry.
00:07:47.400
Um, have her read my stuff and, and if she doesn't like it, don't marry her.
00:07:55.740
Have her read my books and if she, or just one of my books, and if she is repulsed by
00:07:59.500
it, don't marry her, you don't want to marry a feminist.
00:08:05.720
Even in the Christian schools, my, one of my nephews just said, they're all feminists.
00:08:10.080
Well, they're in college to be career women, you know?
00:08:14.500
No, in the other thing that's tough is like women have so much more power in like from
00:08:20.960
a young age when it comes to like sexual options.
00:08:24.200
So I almost feel like sometimes young men in the church get taken advantage of by predatory
00:08:29.080
women because they don't know any better because, you know, she's been sleeping around since
00:08:33.960
she was like 15 because she can, but the average 15 year old, it's just not the same, you know?
00:08:39.540
And then, you know, 10 years later, whatever it is, he comes in and like, they kind of do
00:08:48.120
Not that I'm against like redemption, but I think sometimes like the church kind of tells
00:08:54.460
Like they don't warn them about predatory women as much as I think they should.
00:09:05.940
I did the whole purity culture thing and had them read books and went to a purity camp
00:09:11.060
and, and talk to you, you know, and I just said, you don't date a woman until you're ready
00:09:18.520
They're not, you're not to fool around with them.
00:09:21.860
Um, you know, and I, if they, so we were real, we weren't like they had to, we didn't
00:09:29.620
were, they didn't have to have a chaperone or anything, you know, but I don't think those
00:09:35.500
I don't think like what the, how the Duggars raised their children were bad because they
00:09:39.380
They did, they kissed the first time on their wedding date and they were, they were very
00:09:49.420
And, um, but I just taught my kids, they knew that beauty of sex in marriage and the destruction
00:09:57.800
of sex outside of marriage, how, what, how much it could cause.
00:10:05.080
They, they need teacher boys from the time they were little from the time, you know, they
00:10:10.420
And so they knew and they were thankful there, you know, none of them say we're, we were considered
00:10:16.220
the strict parents, but none of them say we were too strict.
00:10:20.200
They thank us for the boundaries that we set around them.
00:10:23.340
And even in high school, my boys had to be home.
00:10:26.700
I think at 10, you know, that was, I, I just wanted, I just knew nothing.
00:10:31.060
I, one of my cousins is a copy says nothing happens good after midnight, never, but so
00:10:35.920
special times I'd let them stay out later, but we just, we protect, we did everything
00:10:40.000
we could to protect our kids as long as they lived under our roof.
