Pussy Hat Feminists

How can we get normal people to care about the effects of feminism?

On the weekend, I saw a really great 90-minute discussion about how feminism has affected relationships and marriage, featuring the famous Christian Zuby and Joker from Better Bachelor. Joker speaks for the standard, non-religious moderately conservative man (pro-life, opposed to LGBT activism). And Zuby is a traditional conservative who wants men to pursue women for marriage.

So, here is the video:

And Zuby even posted timestamps, so you can see what it is all about:

My Dad is currently visiting me in America, and we watched this on Saturday together and had a great discussion. I lean more towards Better Bachelor than Zuby, but Zuby did a good job of accepting the situation that men find themselves in. Most pro-marriage conservatives and Christians are extremely naive about how feminism has affected the dating market, and the value proposition of marriage for men. They can’t even put the situation facing men into words, because they are so committed to tricking young men into marriage despite the risks and costs. But not Zuby. He has an accurate view of the situation facing men. He was making great points, but so was Better Bachelor. I think that people watching will find that it was a close contest, with both sides landing some pretty good points.

I was going to post this on Monday night for Tuesday, which a better day for blog traffic, but I found another (shorter) video from Sargon of Akkad, the British commentator. Sargon seems to be secular, but he definitely leans right. Anyway, he is happily married, with a stay-at-home wife. And he’s noticed that something has gone wrong with modern women. They seem to think that going after higher education, careers, wealth, travel and fun makes them more attractive to men. Actually, everything that leftist women think is good for men is actually very, very, very bad for men. Watch the video below (shorter) and see what you think. What’s so funny is how many conservative Christian parents and pastors just let their daughters slide into feminism, and never warn them about how marriage-minded men never marry feminists.

Here’s the video:

That lady in the thumbnail is “Lisa” and she is looking for a man to marry her, now that she has reached 42 years old. She lives in San Francisco, and she loves wine and cats. Also, she’s a non-religious Democrat, and she expects her high value husband to share those values. Do non-religious Democrats have the character traits for lifelong married love?

New York Post has an article about her:

The Bay Area singleton, 42, is spending cold, hard cash to rent a dozen digital billboards along California’s famed Highway 101 — advertising her hand in marriage to any commuter that’s ready for commitment.

“I’m putting myself out there,” Catalano, a vintage clothes retailer, from San Mateo, Calif., told the Post with a laugh. “People would be shocked if they knew how much this is costing me.”

Catalano, who launched her ad campaign on September 2, chose not to disclose how much the exploit has cost her over the past month.

[…]She’s also taking out ad space atop taxicabs, further promoting herself to motorists around the region.

And her LinkedIn says that she hasn’t worked since October 2024.

Do you think that a man who believes that two men can “marry” and adopt children would be good at marriage? Do you think that a man who believes that murder is a good way to resolve reckless, hedonistic sex would be good at marriage? Lisa does. Lisa thinks that immoral men make GREAT husbands. Feminism teaches women to oppose traditional male character and roles, and just go for tall, hot and non-judgmental men.

Anyway, I realize that the first video is pretty long, but just watch it over two 45 minute workouts. The last one is shorter, but you can just listen to it while sweeping, vacuuming or mowing. I really enjoyed them, and I’m glad that we are getting more controlled, moderate voices to make the case about why Christians should be more opposed to feminism. You can either have feminism, or you can have marriage. You can’t have both.

  1. I wonder and write comments about this a lot, or it seems that way. The common answer is “money.” Pastors not wanting to offend for the sake of money. I don’t think that fits with the Reformed churches I’ve visited.

    My question is how did the Refuge Church in Odgen get so strong on fighting feminism in the church when they are the stereotype of a blue pill Christian because they have good marriages and are professionally successful.

  2. I watched a YouTube video this weekend in which Kentucky’s law mandating 50/50 default child custody has gone into effect since 2018. When 50/50 is the default, mother’s are usually not entitled to nearly as much child support since the father is regularly caring for and raising the child.

    Since this law went into effect, divorce has dropped 25%. According to feminists, the reason women initiate divorce the majority of times is because men are so awful, and it really has nothing to do with financial incentives. If this is true, why do divorce rates drop when the incentive goes away?

    1. I blogged in this story, and I sent it to Nancy Pearcey and Katy Faust to illustrate my point that changing men is much harder to do than changing incentives with better laws. Nancy seemed to understand my point that the right law can achieve the desired result. Mandatory paternity testing and repealing ni-fault divorce would help, too. But is it popular with women?
