In this episode of Relatable Monday, I discuss a growing trend within the conservative Christian right that I see in the media, social media, and in the culture at large. It's a movement that I think many of us have seen within conservative media and social media. In this episode, I talk about what I see happening within the Christian right, and why I think it needs to stop.
00:00:58.540hey guys welcome to relatable happy monday hope everyone had a wonderful weekend um so i spent a
00:01:11.220lot of time over the past couple days thinking about what i really want to discuss today how i
00:01:18.260want to approach this topic we are going to talk about tim keller the pastor the author who died
00:01:26.460I'm bad at putting timestamps guys so please excuse me and dress something that's going on
00:01:33.880online if you're not really online very much particularly if you're not on Twitter you might
00:01:38.160have no idea about what I'm about to discuss this trend this movement that I'm about to talk about
00:01:44.660or how any of it has to do with me in this podcast I don't want to make it about me I don't want to
00:01:49.920make it about me I want to make it about encouraging you encouraging Christians particularly Christian
00:01:55.400women. I've seen a movement both within the secular and the Christian right. I consider myself
00:02:03.820on the Christian right. I am a conservative. I'm on the right side of the political cultural
00:02:09.980spectrum. I am a Christian. I consider myself a conservative Christian because I believe that
00:02:16.940what is referred to as a conservative view of the Bible is actually just a biblical view of the Bible
00:02:22.640and faith um but the movement that i'm talking about within a segment of the christian right
00:02:29.840could maybe be called like the trad movement or in some cases and again you might not right now
00:02:37.220recognize where this trend is or it's like women we can't get to the point right1.00
00:02:42.200but i'm like a minute in i'm sorry where it's going and that's okay and i'll give you some
00:02:49.360examples i don't want to give too many specific examples because there's so many different
00:02:53.340caveats that i have to put like this person is kind of part of this movement this is not
00:02:56.960this is a tweet that kind of represents it yeah and i'll tell you why because again there's the
00:03:01.060core basic eyes trading notes it's not me all right i'm just a chick talking about this stuff
00:03:06.800and then people yeah yeah yeah but it doesn't but those of you who are in conservatism certainly
00:03:13.180conservative media or who just consume it you've probably seen the direction that all of this
00:03:18.620is going. And particularly if you're not on Twitter, you may not have seen it, but I'm
00:03:25.220going to try to explain it the best I can. And there are good chances that you at least have a
00:03:30.840feeling about what I'm talking about. So I'm like two minutes into this. Are we sorry? You'd think
00:03:35.880that the red pill, I'm sorry, I need to get timestamps. I'm sorry, guys. I'm sorry. I apologize.
00:03:40.400As I called it would just be kind of becoming a conservative. And maybe it was at one point
00:03:45.940realizing that the mainstream narratives about everything race gender economics is just wrong
00:03:51.940but it's actually now kind of morphed into a strange collection of perpetually online men
00:04:00.000who complain about women okay notice how she's already starting the shaming language this is1.00
00:04:05.160what i mean when i said when i say that christian women use the same shame insult guilt need to be1.00
00:04:14.220right as non-christian women it is the same i'm sorry i grew up around y'all y'all mostly catholics0.97
00:04:22.380but christians i have been in the hood in london arguably i don't see a difference
00:04:31.100i don't see a difference and equate masculinity to physical fitness and ultra self-sufficiency
00:04:37.580and what i mean by that is like in some of these circles it's looked down upon to be a monogamous
00:04:42.700in a monogamous relationship or in a marriage at all um in some they emphasize the importance of
00:04:49.500getting a trad service oriented submissive wife why is that wrong0.99
00:04:57.580a trad service or blessing isn't that what you're supposed to want
00:05:04.940now it's like we're shaming men for wanting what they want and uh these are often represented0.98
00:05:11.980damn it blessing get you a combative woman1.00
00:05:17.980go get you someone to argue with twitter accounts constantly posting tick tock videos of1.00
00:05:25.580girls saying stupid things or stories of girls betraying their boyfriends or girls at the gym0.98
00:05:30.540wearing scandalous clothing uh angry that guys are looking at them basically this group both of0.99
00:05:37.500those who are like no i'm non-monogamous and i think you know being a strong man is really just
00:05:44.060kind of sowing my wild oats everywhere and the side that's like oh no we need to get married to
00:05:49.020like the most submissive trad wife out there both of these groups it seems from kind of what they're1.00
00:05:55.420saying they view girls or depict girls women as dumb as promiscuous okay so again if women are1.00
00:06:02.380dumb and promiscuous it's the men depicting them as dumb and promiscuous we couldn't possibly1.00
00:06:10.940just do that behavior oh it's the men the men the men god you guys are killing me sometimes this1.00
00:06:18.700stop s-i-m-p-s-i-m-p-i-n-g stop simping sorry all as radical feminists they believe that feminism is0.99
00:06:31.020the cause of all of our problems they're really not that different than incels and voluntary0.92
00:06:35.180celibates who think the same thing girls women that's the they're the core of all of our problems1.00
00:06:41.660as a country and speaking as someone who knows and has talked about the modern female propensity
00:06:49.580to be overly self-focused and to be duped by any political narrative that plays upon
00:06:55.740our feelings to the detriment see again we are just duped you innocent
00:07:08.380i don't know blessing is it is it unbiblical to say it's a choice is that unbiblical your pastor
00:07:16.380i don't know they say i'm not i'm not a i'm not a real christian they say i'm not like enough so
00:07:21.980i don't know you may you're probably enough being a pastor is that unbiblical to say it's a choice
00:07:27.580no no no am i wrong is this no no you're not wrong no no just the men have choices but women
00:07:35.280don't we're just duped of our country um the first one was the basis of my first book the
00:07:42.760trendy narcissism that i talk about a lot the latter the over emphasis on feelings when it
00:07:48.300comes to political and cultural decisions is the focus of my second book coming out next year. So
00:07:53.540I'm no coddler of women. I'm no feminist. And yet I see and I'm concerned by the different flavors
00:08:00.560of woman hatred. I see. See, I'm no feminist, but I'm behaving in the same way that feminists do0.90
00:08:08.120because now she's going to the men are misogynists. Now they're just women haters. I'm going to tell
00:08:15.900men how to talk. Online discourse today. Yes, of course, from the left in the form of elevating men
00:08:26.140who pretend they're women, excoriating every discontent white woman as a Karen. Yet we know
00:08:32.540that progressives hate God's design. They hate true femininity and true masculinity. And so I
00:08:38.580am used to and expect a kind of a form of woman hatred from a lot of people on the left, but1.00
00:08:44.260also from the right uh some uh some of whom some people on the right um love to play the women are0.99
00:08:51.680dumb and have caused most of the societal problems that we have today i mean0.99
00:08:55.500is that true i mean is it is it is it am i wrong now i'm trying to stay youtube safe i'll just0.98
00:09:11.460keep that one to myself i'll keep that one trope they love to play on that trope and there's
00:09:18.000crossover between this and the that's the red pill and then the trad movement which is also
00:09:24.660just a weird part of conservatism which claims to be a push for traditional ways of life
00:09:30.220traditional marriage and of course i am a huge advocate the biggest advocate of traditional
00:09:34.980marriage and think we should elevate it but this online sect but not not the way that men
00:09:41.240want to just the way I want to. What I'm talking about that you've probably seen before isn't
00:09:46.140necessarily talking about biblical marriage or biblical gender roles. There is a strange
00:09:51.880overemphasis in this community, if you will, movement, trend, whatever. I think it's a grift,
00:09:58.460but a strange overemphasis on the need to subdue women and on creating this almost like 19th
00:10:05.080century aesthetic in your home and way of life. There's a lot of criticism from this crowd of
00:10:10.180women who, a criticism of women who work in any way that is not strictly domestic. And here's
00:10:19.240what I mean when I say that this group is not necessarily Christian, even though they're quote
00:10:23.420unquote trad. There was a young woman the other day who tagged me in her Instagram story. She0.91
00:10:27.800was very angry about something that I said. I don't even remember what. She's an influencer,
00:10:31.880I guess. I think I agree with her on this point. Small following. I didn't respond to anything that
00:10:36.880she said but she claims yeah yeah yeah she's she's with the she's with the the now she's
00:10:44.280going to talk about the the trads with the bikini pictures on instagram we'll agree there but you
00:10:49.380guys this is what i'm showing you men are sick of this they're sick of being told how to talk
00:10:54.440they're they're sick of being told to watch their tone they're they're and the more we do this
00:11:00.360the more it's just it it's just gonna not work you're gonna keep seeing young men leaving and
00:11:09.620then crying about that they're leaving and blaming pearl for it like i did this okay
00:11:14.780so that's the controlling wives archetype that i see in the church1.00
00:11:20.780okay so the next one we have the simps the controlling wives and the born again virgins1.00
00:11:28.520Now, the born-again virgins are the single mothers, ex-OF chicks, and women that maybe had a history of sex work and single motherhood.0.91
00:11:42.260These are women that have some sort of public scarlet letter, per se.1.00
