Female Chastity in Today’s World

By Lynda MargaretFemininity

Did the sexual revolution that rocked America in the 1960’s change forever the expectation that a lady live in chastity? Are women free to express their sexuality in public and still be respected as a lady? Does female chastity still have a place in today’s world? It is fatally easy for Western folk, who have discarded chastity as a value for themselves, to suppose that it can have no value for anyone else. At the same time as Californians try to re-invent celibacy, by which they seem to mean perverse restraint, the rest of us call societies which place a […]

What is a Casual Dress Code?

By Lynda MargaretDress

I find the topic of casual dress code to be a very interesting topic. There is a subjective element in its understanding. What one woman considers to be appropriate is rarely shared by women generally. While it is something personal to a woman’s taste and style, there are also other elements at play. “Casual Dress Code” is a trap that we can easily fall into. It doesn’t mean dress in casual clothes that you wear around the house. Generally, the safest way to navigate this minefield is to be a step above causal, and a step below semi-formal. Don’t worry, […]

Are Women the Weaker Sex?

By Lynda MargaretFemininity

The phrase “the weaker sex” is considered offensive to many people. I believe that the phrase is representative of acceptable oppression of women and should be considered obsolete in our modern language. Now, the ladies being together under these circumstances, it was extremely natural that the discourse should turn upon the propensity of mankind to tyrannize over the weaker sex, and the duty that developed upon the weaker sex to resist that tyranny and assert their rights and dignity. – Charles Dickens, The Old Curiosity Shop (1841) Why we received the title of ‘The Weaker Sex” Women were considered the […]

Is Women Swearing Acceptable?

By Lynda MargaretSpeech

I know that peer pressure encourages us to swear. Swearing is verbal communion, where we use keywords which represent various emotions and connect us as a group. I understand this need to be accepted in our community. However, as a lady, I seek to minimize offense that my ignorance might cause to other people. Just as there are groups who use profanity to connect, there are also groups who connect through the quality of their language. Therefore, this urge to connect with your peers also serves to disconnect you from those in the wider community. I can see no […]
