Might help also to describe what you think feminism is, since it’s one of those terms that is overloaded.

I once had a physical therapist tell me she wasn’t a feminist because she thought women couldn’t be as physically capable as men when serving as soldiers, and seemed to believe feminism requires treating women exactly like men.

I told her I was a feminist because I believe in equal rights for men and women, an idea she did not seem so opposed to.

    Yeah, from Proverbs 31:10 on this chapter is describing what the author considers a “worthy woman”.

    This is an odd passage. It seems to be encouraging the poor to drink to forget their poverty.

    6 Give strong drink to him who is ready to perish, and wine to the bitter in soul.
    7 Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.

      I would’ve used YLT, personally speaking. Otherwise, Proverbs 31 is the reason Neigsendoig and I choose not to be feminists.
