The Christian Patriarchy Movement has spawned the stay-at-home daughterhood movement. It's a branch of evangelical Christianity that takes beliefs about men as leaders and women as homemakers to anachronistic extremes. The Young Turks' Ana Kasparian explains why a lifestyle like this could survive in America.

  • I'm not a "right winger" and I bash feminism. What Ana is thinking is Feminism, is not modern Feminism. I think this christian group is nuts and wrong, but I'm not "right winger" for not agreeing with feminism.

  • Helper?Hardly! Mom is and always was the most important member of the family. You ask any kid that get regular doses of Mom's Real homemade cookies. Who the boss really is? Us men? Hardly. Some things really are more important than money.

  • @shirehorse91 no it doesn't.

  • Patriachy is important. When my parents split up I fell apart when it wasn't a patriachic system and my sister killed herself, if my dad and uncles were still there for me to look up to and go to for advice it would never have happened.

  • We live in a psychic matriarchy. Get it right you stupid bitches. THe only reason men set up what appears to be a patriarchy, is because women are subconciously attracted to symbols of power. And you think staying at home is some type of subordinate position? Give me a fucking break. Do me a favor don't attempt any type of objective rational thinking. Just stick to what youre good at like consuming at shopping malls and looking at yourselfes in the mere everyday for 3 hours.

  • Below the belt all men are brothers

  • People have the right to raise their children how ever they wish. People grow into adults and then can find their own way. Just like people have a right to raise their kids with Feminist ideas, these people should have the right to do what they want.

    Note: I am not condoning these attitudes, myself.

  • @rexxthunder If you do not support feminism that makes you against human rights, a right winger, and a repulsive puddle of primordial ooze.

  • @Saok19

    "Patriarchy" is a modern bullshit term, there is no such thing, just as "oppression of women for centuries".

    And when it all crashes down, well, there will be no more police protection, McDonalds, cheap electricity and other goods of civilisation - it will be a hard life of a survivalist!! And guess what, women are NOT survivors! Without men they will die of hunger, thirst and by the hands of looters.

    When "martial law" rules, there is no feminism.

  • Whats next? Are they going to cut the poor girls' clits off next? That stuff happens in this world, and as puritannical as the evangelicals I could see them saying a woman dont deserve to enjoy sex.

  • @mrgimp420 I got married because I wanted to be in a committed relationship with a person I love. I do not expect him to take care of me but we choose to take care of each other. Working full time, part time or making the choice to be at home is a personal one and choices both genders now have the choice to make.

  • @dubified89 I'm empowered and hardly never complain.
