What is a “Post Feminist”? She most likely thinks of herself as a ”New Woman”. She seems to be 20 – 40-ish, professional, aspiring to high ambition outside the home. These are women who have grown up in a different gender-culture from women of previous generations. They want to be fully in charge of their lives in every aspect. There appears to be no desire in them to settle into a permanent relationship with the opposite sex. Theirs is the right to make their own decisions. They are not the product of earlier feminism but are post-feminist. They have bought into the new individualism and competitiveness that prevails in today’s secular society.

 

What did God mean when He made woman?

 

How does He see them?

 

How does God view “new woman”?

 

How does “new woman” view herself?

 

How does Godly man see woman?

 

How does secular man see woman

 

How does man relate to “new woman”?

 

Our perspective is a Godly one. He ordained man to need woman, and woman to need man in a permanent relationship. Neither is complete without the other.

 

Modern society seems to encourage woman to believe she doesn’t need man and man appears to have reduced his need for her to sexual satisfaction. It would appear to us from what we have observed, all that “new woman” has done has made it easier than ever for men to see them as sex objects, and consequently they do! (See our Blog re “Only go out for sex”). Why is it that women in the workplace insist on being on a par with men, but won’t accept the consequences? Over and over we see cases in the media of a woman expecting preferential treatment “because I’m a woman”. She’ll dress or behave provocatively but run to the courts when he responds to the signals she is sending out. (See our blog Chivalry and Modesty).

 

The old design has not changed, and as always, it appears that it is the woman who pays the price for this new attitude. They still can get pregnant, man can still walk away.

 

Look at what we said in our book “Where are all the Men?

 

Is this new outlook working? Women: tell me what you think!
