Liberty Exposed: The Attack on Femininity And Womanhood

Henrik Sorensen

At any point you find yourself browsing through social media, you will inevitably come across these new-age individuals explaining their social changes regarding masculinity and men. Individuals online have become synonymous with this current trend of new influencers. A lot of energy is spent in order to educate and help young men combat these decade-long trends that distort them as men. This is, in fact, justified.

There is no doubt that there have been many social changes that have negatively impacted young men, lowering their ambitions and even their physiological health. However, these seem to be more blatantly obvious than another, seemingly more dangerous erosion of Western culture, which is the attack on femininity and womanhood.

The attacks against women seem far more subtle and are not nearly as well described as the attacks on traditional masculinity. Leading far more to the destructive nature of current societies. The devastation is amplified by the lack of coverage or outright acknowledgement.

Lifestyle

These trends are most applicable in several ways, including the changing definitions of what makes a woman as well as the priorities women are taught to pursue.

The most modern wave of feminists has succeeded in thinking that the "male lifestyle" is responsible for the most joy. This includes promiscuity and obsession in the workforce. Often reinforced by major institutions and social media, Millennial and Gen Z women fall for worldly pleasures.

We naturally put a lot of emphasis on our jobs, as this is what we spend a huge portion of our lives involved in. While it can be a source of pride, it is only a small point in one's life and will not be its defining characteristic. Starting at a young age, girls are expected to prioritize their lives around a career. Modern polling has shown a record high: a majority of women value careers over homemaking.

Similar to marriages in general, they are postponed by most women in order to focus on other aspects of life, such as their careers and casual relationships. Currently, marriage rates are at their lowest point on record—less than 7 per 1,000 people in the United States. Instead, pursue a casual relationship with little regard for one's chastity.

This adjustment in lifestyle breaks from the traditional norms women partake in. When left to their own devices, women's decision-making emulates a completely different lifestyle than men's. Throughout all of the social advancement in society, women's general happiness has been declining. As women have been told to act in the primal nature of their male counterparts, their overall well-being has been decreasing while levels of stress and anxiety have skyrocketed.

This is corrupted tremendously by the use of the internet and social media, where these lifestyles are promoted. Disproportionately affecting women and girls. Spending 3 or more hours per day with an average age of 14, young girls are being filtered by harmful content that promotes poor life choices. Leading to greater instances of depression, low self-esteem, and irregular daily patterns.

For men and women alike, neither of these acts promotes long-term happiness, and it is a fallacy that men have adopted for women. As a man, the most important duty one could take up is that of fatherhood. Similarly, motherhood is one of the most admirable and life-filling responsibilities a woman has. Falling for the pure naturalist tendencies of one's sex will never lead to true happiness.

Transgenderism

Another source of the attacks against women is found in the very nature of transgenderism. The concept of changing genders trivializes the very nature of womanhood. If being a woman is simply based on things you buy off the shelf, then that devalues who you actually are as a person. This is highly insulting. The alteration of your hormones is trying to appease the simplest idea of the makeup of women. And yet, individuals in the transgender community would have one believe that this is the case.

This growing number of transgender individuals competing in women's athletics is an example of ignoring the voices of real women in order to appease this fad. Individuals such as Jaycee Cooper, Cece Telfer, Wren Pryle, and Lia Thomas are just a few of the biological males who have committed to female athletics and stolen major titles away from women.

Little has been done to fight back for fear of being labeled as hateful. Even among them, this affects them the most. If left unresolved, it will not be surprising if the entirety of female sports will be dominated by biological males, destroying countless opportunities for real women in the name of inclusivity.

Virtuous women are one of the most important characteristics of a healthy, thriving society. While many have attempted to discuss men and their various battles, little has been done to educate women on their situations, which I would argue come with greater consequences.

There is a silent war raging against traditional femininity. With essentially no coverage, this has allowed methodical erosion and amnesia about what a woman is. Disrupting where one's value stems from. Your individual virtues—the ability to bear children and have an emotional connection that men can never have—link to the magical nature inherent in most women.

Men and women, when left to their baseline natural urges, are inherently flawed. But when combined and accepted in their characteristics of masculine and feminine, they transcend into the most important asset to any civilization. The destruction of womanhood has decimated the culture of the Western world. With no one speaking out on its consequences, it will surely mean the fall of our civilization.
