In the mid-19th century secularists used the courts to begin to erode biblical gender roles and Christians retreated.
Then in the 20th century they removed prayer and creation teaching from schools and replaced it with teachings of evolution - and again Christians retreated.

In the 50s,60s and 70s, secularists used the court to get rid of fornication laws and gave women the right to murder their own unborn children in their wombs and in the 2000s the court made gay marriage and transgenderism rights – and again Christians retreated.
The Bible tells us in 1 Peter 2:14 that God has established civil government “for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well”. And how do we know what is evil and what is morally praiseworthy behavior? One answer. The Bible.

Psychology and psychiatry have appropriated concepts that used to belong to the purview of philosophy. 1/13
Love, alienation, anxiety, despair - all these and more have been transformed into psychological constructs, susceptible to pathologization and depoliticization. Here is an example from bell hooks' 'All About Love':...2/13

Canadians have the honour of owning the world’s biggest conveyor of woman-hating, the Montreal-based website Porn Hub. The website is free to access, with no age restrictions and no restrictions on the defilement of women. Rape and torture videos abound...
Porn Hub was visited 42 billion times in 2019. To put this number in perspective, there are 4 billion men on the planet.

This made me reflect on my personal definition of racism so here goes 🧵
2/ To me personally I think of #racism as discrimination whether *by thought and/or action* based on skin colour or geographical place or culture or religion or language or social attitudes that never operates in isolation, which brings us to the concept of #intersectionality
3/ Racism is always compounded or diluted by other systems of oppression or privilege like #patriarchy #classism #homophobia.

The brain can be convinced that voices are happening when they’re not, amputated limbs are present, physical impossibilities are real, and its all because of two trainable parts of our wiring: The subconscious and the logical processing center. 🧵

She defined brahmanical patriarchy as 'the need for effective sexual control over women to not only maintain patrilineal succession but also caste purity, the institution unique to Hindu society'.

On 21 September, Kenya's Chief Justice D.K. Maraga advised President Kenyatta to dissolve parliament due to its failure to implement a constitutional clause on gender representation. 2/22 kenyalaw.org/kenyalawblog/c…

The patriarchal gender bias in healthcare care practice and medicinal research has a negative impact on our well-being!
The impact is huge and diverse! People living with PCOS find it challenging to navigate through the bias that distorts research, diagnosis, and treatment. According to research, PCOS is fast becoming a modern epidemic, especially in Asia.
So what is it? PCOS is a common endocrine disorder that affects people with ovaries, with 20-25% womxn in India and around 1 in 10 womxn worldwide affected by it.
Oh did you want a long early morning rant #thread? Yes? No? Too late, here it is. Let’s talk about how the insistence on returning to college football not only a reflection of racism & capitalism, but also the deep failures of patriarchal culture. Ready? Let’s go.
Ok so yesterday I talked a bit about racism & capitalism in the organized sport industry particularly football. Here’s that thread. Note: I’m sure there are scholars who have written about this, this is just my Black feminist quick take.
So football relies heavily on the athletic performance of Black men for the entertainment & profit of predominantly white men. In the NFL when players protest, they’re told to shut up & play or that they make enough money so they shouldn’t care (racist capitalist perspective).
