Sometimes I want to go home and listen to conversations about what happened in the past, and especially about what never happened.

I HIT 1K!

Thank you all so much for helping me find a community I can belong to and feel safe in. When I made this blog I never could’ve imagined even getting 10 followers on here. I planned on this being my anonymous little escape from the modern world and didn’t expect to find so many likeminded and kind men and women.

Thank you and God bless you all! 💕

I see a ton of blogs dedicated to traditional femininity, and there’s a solid network of women who seem dedicated to helping each other live in a traditionally feminine way. It seems that there isn’t a counterpoint focus among men on exactly what a traditionally masculine life is (if there is and I’m not seeing it, I’m happy to be proven wrong), and I’ve noticed a decent number of men who claim to value traditional femininity, and who claim to want to have a spouse like that, but who are not proving themselves worthy of it. So, gents:

If you like it when she is well and traditionally and femininely dressed, and takes pride in her appearance, stop wearing ratty old jeans, t-shirts, and sneakers. Put on a collared shirt, take some pride in your own appearance as well.

If you wish for a spouse who is chaste, be chaste yourself. I love all these fashy blogs banging the drum of “tradition” but yet have photos of scantily clad women (some of whom are standing, stereotypically, in wheat fields) in them. Stop viewing pornography, and be chaste of heart and mind.

If you want a woman who lives her faith, then you need to live yours as well. Some of my supposedly traditionalist younger brethren complain that finding a good Catholic woman is hard, but half the Latin Mass chapels I step in, the single women well outnumber the single men. Seems to me like if they were living their faith and going to Mass, they would have found the devout potential spouses they were looking for.

Guys, when is the last time you put the video game controller down and read something; especially something truly intellectual?

Just as traditional femininity is a positive and enriches the family, we need to cultivate strong traditional masculinity. We need to be good fathers and husbands. We need to be involved in our communities and in our Parishes. We need to be strong protectors and providers. Find the ways in which modernity and the flaws of our generation have already invaded your life, the way you think and the way you act, and root them out and excise them. Live what you believe.

John 3:16

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Having a husband to make decisions is really a blessing for women ❤️ It takes such a huge burden off of our shoulders and is incredibly freeing! Making difficult choices can be stressful, whether or not the outcome will have much of an impact on anything, and having a man able to take care of it for you is such a relief 🥰❤️ Thank you men!!
