We need to start listening to what male teachers and preachers are revealing about their own thought life. And we need to take seriously the implications of their words. Learn more on Bare Marriage: baremarriage.com/2024/04/fred-s…
Hot Take: What if Love & Respect is less about making sure men get respect-- and more about making sure men don't ever have to face accountability?

@SheilaMeagher @sheilagregoire But predators wouldn’t like that. Info makes them more resistant to predators, and there are far, far too many predators in positions of power, control or authority.
@sheilagregoire If their husbands are domineering macho patriarchs, as many Bible Belt preachers tell them to be, why would normal women desire them? A normal woman desires sex with a husband who respects her as an equal partner.
@sheilagregoire The biggest thing that helped me was when I accepted that I didn't have to. Before it was "u have to or he'll look elsewhere". But that isn't true. Once he said I never had to again it was super interesting. Who knew?
Holy SHIT. Read this. Seriously. You will never say, "Women just don't want sex," with a straight face, ever again.
Are we saying that wives don't have to have sex? In episode 231, Rebecca and I addressed one of the most constant complaints we tend to hear about our work: that without obligation, women are just never going to want to have sex with their husbands. A 🧵
@sheilagregoire Exactly my story is anticdotal but my first marriage was obligation based and for the majority of the 19 years I was married I struggled with low libido. After my divorce I started dating and my libido came roaring back! My current husband and I have a very active relationship.
We need to teach boys and men better!
4. Girls don't show a lot of difference in surveys of what they want sexually A few years ago we analyzed a survey question from Shaunti Feldhahn, from which she concluded that 82% of boys felt either little responsibility or little ability to stop in a make out situation
@sheilagregoire That’s hysterical. Of course we had a sex drive. 😂🤦🏻♀️
I was never a teen girl, but my experience with a few teen girlfriends, as a demisexual/autistic teen guy was that yes, teen girls could have a very high sex drive, and where unhappy when their dates didn't pick up on that quickly enough 😁
Do teen girls have a sex drive? I’m desperately hoping that you answer, “Of course!” Recently, I had a woman email me to tell me that a friend of hers learned from a seminary teacher that teenaged girls are not aware of their sexuality and don't need to learn about sex. 🧵
Growing up in 90s conservative Florida I thought there was something wrong w/ me bc I wanted to have sex w/ my longtime boyfriend so very much. Girls were supposed to make guys want them but never give in to them until they married you. No desire allowed for girls. Horrific.

“The women’s movement just erupted in the church,” when God created us equally in His image and again 2,000+ years ago when Jesus came and gave us the credibility and dignity (to learn and teach) some men still want to steal from us. John, go home, read your Bible, and be quiet.
“Women who pastor & preach in a church are a disgrace, and they openly reflect opposition to the clear command of the Word of God. This is flagrant disobedience. It has been acceptable in our culture, and now acceptable even in the evangelical world.” - John MacArthur
@sheilagregoire “Penis in vagina” isn’t the only component to human sexuality and is so male centric. When women menstruate, we are reminded that we are not pregnant. When we ovulate, our body signals to us that we should get pregnant. This is a biological sex drive. Why is it ignored?
@sheilagregoire Also, how disconnected from women’s bodies is this idea that teenage girls/young women aren’t aware of sex. Every 28 days, for most of these women, we are brought into bodily awareness of our reproductive organs.
@sheilagregoire Saying "teen girls have no sexual impulses" is the necessary follow-on to "women don't enjoy sex" and "you can't tell if a woman is aroused." Their world view requires them to establish that women never have sexual impulses at any age, that way. It absolves them of responsibility
Grateful to receive an award for excellence in scholarship from @Calvin_Uni tonight, and to celebrate the contributions of so many of my friends and colleagues.
@sheilagregoire When I was 10, my father gave me "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Sex but Were Too Afraid to Ask" to read. Then we sat down multiple times to discuss my questions. But that didn't stop me from falling into purity culture bc I believed the church over him. Bad mistake!
@sheilagregoire Oh my gosh. How, in the year 2024, are we still dealing with this nonsense? Of course teen girls have a sex drive. So do little girls. And how can teen girls simultaneously be unaware of their sex drive while causing men to lust? 🙄
Lots of women out here doing God's work. Take Your Hands Off Of Her! RT and tag the women you know. instagram.com/reel/C6GCeFxuj… @ErinMHarding @AEMarriott1 @BethMooreLPM @sheilagregoire @LChas22 @Sherileevs @KSPrior (I know there are men, too)
@ElizabethOstli1 @sheilagregoire 🎯 In so many of these situations, men are answerable to pastors & elders/deacons, not their wives/women. When women aren’t represented in church leadership, there’s a vacuum of voice, agency, & fairness. It’s a male-centric perspective & power protective of bad men.
