The Lies I Used to Believe: Feminism Is Good for the World

In this video, Rosaria Butterfield shares how the gospel changed the way she thought about the uniqueness of men and women.
Rosaria Butterfield is an author, pastor’s wife, homeschool mom, and former professor of English and women’s studies at Syracuse University. She is the author of 'Five Lies of Our Anti-Christian Age'. In this powerful book, Rosaria Butterfield uses Scripture to confront 5 common lies about sexuality, faith, feminism, gender roles, and modesty often promoted in our secular culture today. Written in the style of a memoir, this book explores Butterfield’s personal battle with these lies-interwoven with cultural studies, literary criticism, and theology-to help readers see the beauty in biblical womanhood, marriage, and motherhood.

With all the views, I am surprised that there aren't any comments. Thank you for sharing this, I think it is a wonderful and non-adversarial way to discuss feminism versus patriarchy, and perhaps most importantly to keep us focused not on feminism or patriarchy at all, but I'm following the will of God. Nobody is good. Every human harbors evil within their heart,And it is only by following God that we can be free from that evil and free from the effect that that evil has on the world when it is unchecked

I watched every second of this video and I absolutely loved it but I have a few questions. I’m a teenager and still new to some ideas so I would appreciate constructive suggestions. 2:53 Feminism doesn’t mean Men and Women are interchangeable. That’s not possible. Doesn’t feminism just mean Women should be treated like humans just like men? 5:07 The biblical family is a crucial part of Christian feminism. As long as the woman is being treated like a human in the marriage, that’s all that matters. True Feminism tries to fight the evil patriarchy of male oppression, inequality and violence. To see women as the humans that we are. Of course, there are different types of feminism and we can’t group all types into one. Christian Feminism, Radical Feminism, conservative feminism and so on. Is it right to just conclude that Feminism isn’t good for the world without making the necessary distinctions?
