    Very interesting perspectives. I. have to say that the subject of Feminism vs Being Feminine has been discussed a lot by my daughter and me over recent days. Our belief is that the feminine arts are less appreciated nowadays because of the Feminist Movement. The Feminist Movement has become the task master of turning women into men. Nothing about femininity is valued. Rather, it is abhorrent and disgusting to almost everyone these days. It’s very sad. More is expected of women and men aren’t appreciated at all. Everything seems to be turned on its head. This is not good, but if it is mentioned by a man, then he is called a sexist and worse. When a woman says it she is called lazy and weak, and a host of other nasty words. This is terribly disturbing, and just plain wrong. I’m glad I watched this video. It was very enlightening. Thanks.

    That final quote is so beautiful. Especially the part of the same note played on different strings/instruments. My husband and I have wrestled alot in this arena of balance. Admittedly, I've been fighting for acknowledgement and balance from the typical vantage point of masculinity. 😅 This has caused me to feel divided within myself. I think my husband values feminity but just wasn't taught or doesn't know how to express that in a way that helps me feel valued. 😅 Similarly, I wasn't necessarily taught to value femininity either. I was taught to compete and get an education, with little emphasis on preparation for a future motherhood. I married at 30 and had our last child 4 years ago at 42. I wouldn't recommend holding off motherhood to all you young adult women with a bucket list of life experiences to get through. No other roles have helped me feel more secure in my identity than becoming a wife and then mother in this life. It was a privilege for me to marry. My husband isn't a member of the Church. We've had our struggles and have been through some hard life circumstances together.
    Thank you Jacob for gifting me new glasses to see through. I think it's time to demonstrate to my husband what Gospel femininity should actually look, but more importantly, feel like. I feel resolved to dedicate myself more to that role now. My children could do with the ceasefire in our home. 😬
    I'm looking forward to turning over a new leaf and exploring that side of myself that I know exists but that's been kept hidden away in shame for too long. 🫠 (I worked for almost a decade in law enforcement - where I met my husband - so that masculine mindset has trickled down into my marriage and mothering style over the years). I think my children will be pleased with a newer, softer version of me. 😅 And I think it's important for my sons (and daughters) to see that healthy contrast in our home.

    This was a very insightful way of looking at the feminist movement.
    Here are some other ways I thought of about how our unique LDS view supports this framework:
    1. Exaltation, or perfection, is ONLY found within a celestial partnership of man and woman, in which they become one, and the joining of man and woman is the culminating ordinance. So the partnership and melding of the masculine and feminine is central to the entire plan of exaltation.
    2. We believe that Heavenly Father is also an exalted being, and thus we have a heavenly mother. Therefore God represents a balance of the masculine and feminine.
    3. We also tend to believe historically that the knowledge of the feminine has been removed from Christianity, which explains some of the shift/corruption in values towards the masculine and away from the feminine.
    4. We also believe that this life is the continuation of a spiritual war that began before this world was created, and that Satan is that opposing force. And one of the defining things about Satan is that he is a man, and he will never be able to marry. He therefore will always tend to skew towards masculine traits because he rejected a body and the ability to have a family.
    5. Celibacy of leaders has never been practiced in our faith, quite the opposite, in order to be a leader one must be married.

    I would urge a better study of 1st wave feminism. Yes they achieved some goals of equality. But the same goals of todays feminists were also the goals of the 1st wave feminists. Janice Fiamengo and several others demonstrate this bautifully but you can also simply go read the 1st wave feminists themselves. We should be careful not to equate the results with the totality or sum of their goals.

    This explains why the misogyny of the early 1900s was so high. It seems like it was a reaction from some men to being forced to compete with women for the first time in history rather than work with them. Now that the misogynists have been completely subdued, men no longer complain about having to compete with women. But it’s definitely been very detrimental to our birth rates and mental / physical health.
    I agree with the suggestion of this video, the answer is for society to begin valuing femininity in women again. Similarly, value masculinity in men too

    Much of feminism hinges on the denial of the complementary biological differences between men and women, especially evolutionary psychology. Gender roles have been proven to be the product of *choice* (e.g., careers in egalitarian countries as cited by Jordan Peterson). Woman being dependent on men for physical protection and necessities is not inherently bad. Patriarchy, defined as men righteously leading the family and other roles in society, is likewise optimal for human development. Women also have roles in leadership. Both men and women pursuing education and employment is fine as long as it does not supersede the family (e.g., men can focus too much on success rather than family relationships, women being separated from their children has measurable adverse effects on their development), and it contributes to greater flourishing and enrichment. The Industrial Revolution led to men being separated from their families, when previously they would teach skills to their children

    I would say the rise in depression comes from a confluence of factors, including the loss of men's roles in society. One of the biggest issues has been the rise of social media, which ironically isolates people more than it brings them together. This has only been further exacerbated by the lockdowns during Covid, so that people who weren't already isolated were forced to become so. With social media also comes the 24/7 news cycle injected directly into your feed, and we all know how rare it is that anything positive makes the news. Prior to Covid, the demographic most likely to embrace social media was young men, young men who, consciously or not, felt the impact of the loss of their traditional roles in society in the form of aimlessness and a lack of future prospects for employment, marriage, or even basic friendship. Men who, by and large, didn't fit the masculine archetype that well to begin with and couldn't keep up in a society that increasingly valued it to the exclusion of feminine values. Men who now only had connections with the rest of humanity through social media, which only shows manicured versions of other people and depressing news of societal collapse that they'd never notice if they went outside and touched grass. There's a reason the rise of hyper traditionalism and the alt-right coincides so strongly with the proliferation of social media. We also can't ignore the loss of church as an influence in people's lives. Like Redeemed Zoomer often says, the church, whichever version that happens to be for you, has historically been the town center and gathering place, the place where you'd meet friends and start a family. With more and more people leaving church and many churches (especially evangelical churches) turning into megachurches where personal relationships with other people or the pastor are nigh impossible and the entire thing is just a calculated stage performance with no intimacy or warmth, it's no wonder this avenue of social interaction has disappeared.

      I agree with your thoughts. I have also noticed a dramatic shift in television and movies and the power roles of men and women. I grew up in the 70s and 80s when the men were still portrayed as strong leaders in their homes and at work. What we have today is just the reverse where we see men reporting to women who have the power positions and women definitely act more masculine. If there were more men in media who acted strong and confident it could help balance out the issue.
      Young men in particular need strong male roles in their lives. Having raised 2 boys myself it was always a great motivation to me to try to set a proper balance of strength and compassion along with reason and love.
      Unfortunately, both television and movies tend to portray men as either clowns (not to be taken seriously), or in need of guidance by a woman who is beautiful, confident, and powerful (and always has the answers). This unbalanced view of men and women can cause impressionable young men to not see masculine rolls as something to embrace and follow. I guess I miss the old days of men portrayed in masculine rolls and women as nurturing and loving and the person who can wipe away your tears.

    On the podcast "Whatever" a guy (forgot his name) pointed out that women only have rights as a result of the benevolence of men. If all men decided that women do not have rights, there is nothing women could do about it. Not saying that should be the case of course, but pointing out that the fact that they do say a lot about men where women DO have rights. And to point out that we are inherently not equal.
    I love that it was a MAN that came up with the idea of Feminism. It makes sense as feminism sounds like it was made up by men. I often say it was created in 1950's by 5 frat boys after a night of partying and drinking in a frat house common room. They jokingly decided to make a feminist manifesto as a way to fool women into doing what men want w/o women knowing it is what men want. The pill, abortions, protesting nude, posing nude in movies to advance their careers, becoming the bread winners, not wanting children. The frat boys accidentally dropped the manifesto on campus and a female student picked it up thinking was legit.

      What's more accurate is that men heard they could have far less responsiblity if they went al9ng with feminism and it spoke to their carnal nature the way it does to a woman's carnal nature and that resulted in support from men.
