From Gregory B. Gonzalez at MadMikesAmerica:
Last week, a friend forwarded me an article about why so many Evangelical women supported Brett Kavanaugh, new appointee to the Supreme Court and alleged sexual predator. In it, the author explained that it has to do with Evangelical purity culture and how women are browbeaten into submerging their sexuality and making them feel responsible for any sexual assaults that happen to them.
To say it enraged me is putting it lightly. I loathe religion in general, but I loathe Evangelicals in particular. They’re hypocritical, pious, and judgmental. They’re everything antithetical to what a christian should be.
Young female Evangelicals are taught to dress ‘modestly’, made to feel ashamed for their sexuality, and are blamed for any sexual assaults done to them, as if Evangelical men bear no responsibility whatsoever. If an assault occurs, it’s usually because men were ‘tempted’ or that a woman doesn’t submit to her husband.
Well, you know what I have to say to that?
