I watched a woman break down in regret, and it cut deep.
— A Gene Robinson (@AlBuffalo2nite) January 23, 2026
Years ago, a Christian man proposed to her. He told her she didn’t have to grind herself into the ground. She could build a home. Raise children. Be covered. Be protected. Be cherished. She was offended. Feminism told her… pic.twitter.com/ANwUjQGtf2

It takes good parents to help both sons and daughters navigate our fucked up world. There are NO GUARANTEES…except scarcity, pain, and death. If love and satisfaction comes your way, grab it with both hands and realize that keeping women employed is about tax revenues and NOT satisfaction of the wage slaves.
Heartbreaking. It is going to take generations to undo what has been done to our society. If we survive.
Roger that, HT. Sounded hopeless, very sad. Brought tears to this old geezers eyes.
All of us have made choices in our early years that hindsight now amplifies the risks we never imagined. So what exactly is her message and what does she hope to accomplish by sharing this? If I were the guy who had planned to marry her, I’d thank God for saving me from a huge mistake. She doesn’t mention missing a life with a devoted husband and the children she could have enjoyed. Her only regret appears that gee-whiz, she’ll have to support herself now. Well little girl, welcome to the real world where men have to work a minimum of 40 hours a week and possibly at a job they aren’t fond of just so they can support a stay-at-home wife and kids. She’s whining now instead of taking charge of her life; she wants someone to save her. Anyone want to bet she wouldn’t be whining to a husband who wasn’t providing enough to satisfy her expectations.
At least she saw her mistake. The question is what will she do moving forward?? Hopefully, she will find a church and make amends.
At 19 I married after graduating high school. I married a man 18 years old. When my sons started grade school, I was fortunate to find employment at their school to enhance our family’s income. Over time I learned computer skills and became a valuable employee with a good employment history at three different school district’s. My husband (aged 40) of 23 years divorced me to marry a gal 15 years younger. At that time alimony consisted of only 5 years of support and when I explored expanding that, his attorney threatened to have half my school pension turned over to my ex once I retired. So I ask you—where would I be now had I stayed home and not gained any employable skills? Maybe working at a quick mart? I believe the wife/mother should stay home for all the obvious reasons, but what happens when the wedding vows given before God are dismissed? Bottom line in my opinion: stay at home to raise your children and do your best to also gain some independence to fall back on if necessary.
Sound advice. I wonder what our culture would be if our people went to church and our churches preached the Word of God.
