Do you follow your wife in Communion line?
« on: December 26, 2025, 12:47:15 PM »
Frequently, I see that when husbands are closer to the aisle than their wives, they step back and let their wives go first when it's time to enqueue to receive Communion. Why? To keep an eye on them, or feminism (letting wives be the head/leader of the family, drive the car, etc.)?

I always saw that as a protective father and husband thing. But I’ve never thought about it more than that. When I was in the Novus Ordo I would always get annoyed by my father not moving back to his original spot, everyone would shift down one. 😂

"Ladies first" originated with Christendom, during which time not only was Our Lady honored, but all ladies. Boys were taught to open doors for women (including automobile doors), to pull out a lady's chair for her at the dining table, to carry a white handkerchief with them and to offer it to a lady if needed, and when walking with a woman to walk on the outside toward the road (to protect her from splashing of vehicles). My DH taught all of these to our sons.

The war on Chritendom aka Western Civilization is nearly complete, with many men and women ignorant of these traditions.

It’s called chivalry and being a gentlemen, something that was, for the most part, lost by the X generation and the generations that followed.
