@eden-anderson I know XD but there are so many other books on my TBR list, and the LOTR books are so long, so they haven’t made it to the top yet. I want to read them by the end of this year though. And I loved Faramir too! Actually, his story made me cry this past time I was watching the film. :'( I don’t think it’s a bad thing either. I was just saying that it didn’t seem to me like he’d obtained the “truth” that Kate was referring to, at least not by the end of the second movie/film. I don’t blame him at all. My heart breaks for him </3 :((((
@msqueen8 aww, thank you!! <3 I appreciate it. I’m glad that not all wives feel oppressed. I know it’s not the case, but I’ve seen and heard of so many unhappy marriages that it can be really discouraging 🙁 hm, maybe I’ll try working in the nursery or at least the children’s church. The idea kind of terrifies me, but I guess they would probably help me help the kids. They wouldn’t be upset if I don’t know what to do, right? I’ve only held a baby once I think. Maybe once. I think. Maybe I’ve never held one. Idk.
I think some women are naturally more masculine and some men are naturally more effeminate, and that’s totally fine. It’s the way they were made. It doesn’t make them any less of a man or woman. You don’t have to do these certain behaviors to be a “man” or “woman.” For example, I am perfectly fine without my eventual husband being able to hunt or do anything like that. 😛 or if he wasn’t handy when it comes to fixing things or good with cars or anything like that. That doesn’t make him any less of a man. And a woman who can’t cook (like me) or doesn’t know how to act around children (like me) isn’t any less of a woman. Those are societal pressures and expectations, not requirements for femininity or masculinity. In my opinion, at least 🙂
