    • women are made to understand, but it is a much weaker understanding than men.

    Which is why they are told to obey regardless. 

    A wise woman, and I know many, admits her weakness.

    Pride takes over when she tries to bypass that.

    Do you think that is going to stop me from expressing my thoughts?  I used to care and be effected by a comment like that.  It is not going to work anymore.  Nice try though.
    That's not a good thing.

    When you used to care and be affected by it, that was your opportunity, God's grace calling you, to deepen in your faith.

    You chose pride instead.

    That may be so, but if you tell her she is stupid for having what a man thinks is an illogical emotion, then she will not listen to you or trust you.  Men have seemed to forget that they are suppose to be strong through an emotional storm. They are not suppose to try and stop it.
    Women aren't stupid for having emotions.  They are stupid for thinking that their emotions matter.  This is why society is failing.  Over-reliance and over-emphasis on emotions.  

    Catholic theology teaches us that emotions can be dangerous.  We are tempted by emotions.  We are supposed to mistrust emotions.

    To get back to a catholic society, emotions need to be re-regulated to where they belong - in the home.  Not in society.  Not in world affairs.  These must be governed by reason, which is why men are supposed to govern.

    When society is governed by reason, then emotions can flourish and women can be safe because there are guardrails in place.  A feminized society has no guardrails because emotions run amok.

    This is feminizim in action.  The comment was to stop tone policing, which is a valid request, because tone policing is wrong and uncharitable.  Instead of recognizing this, you doubled-down and think that your self-expression is more important than your obligations to charity.  You've just elevated your emotions over your faith.  You put your own needs first.

    Faith > emotions
    Charity > emotions
    Your neighbor > emotions

    Feminism = emotions > (anything and everything).

    "Oh no these older established men want to get married and have children with my darling daughter, oh the depravity, oh the lustfully misogynistic old unattractive men, if only I raised my daughters better their mind's would be as mature as their bodies"

    Why do you assume this is about lust and not fertility and basic attraction?  Because men on here are upset with women not acknowledging their needs (concupiscence of the flesh).
    Why don't parents understand that their children will eventually need to leave the nest and get married?  We do know this, obviously, we are married ourselves.  We just don’t like the idea of men in their mid thirties looking over our 14 year old girls.
    Do you even realise that this problem will also effect your own sons as they grow and struggle to buy a house and provide for a family?  Trailer park homes and apartments are a ok with us.  
    What will you say then to them?  No dating until you have a job to support a wife and baby.  We don’t expect six figures, just the will to work and provide for their family.  God will help them.  We will help them as well if they need it.

    • Mainly the reason some mothers want their daughters marrying younger men is because they see a man more easy to manipulate.

    To the poster just above, it is about men caring about a superior and better marriage where the age difference  is greater.

    If you keep reducing it down to the flesh, I feel sorry for you.

    I see men are allowed to put their emotions first and women have to listen because of obedience.

    I can understand you as a man coming to this conclusion, but you are not correct here, at least about me.  I may be emotional about this, but I cannot get over the idea of a man in his mid thirties wanting to be with my teenage daughter.  My husband feels the same way.  Age gap after a girl is20 is fine, even if the man is 20 plus years older.  The men who are upset over this opinion are not helping me change my mind, that’s for sure.  There is a man though who disagrees with me that I would be more willing to discuss ideas with as he seems more even tempered and I would prefer my daughter marry him at age 18, even if he is in his low thirties.

    Women are the ones who started talking about 14 year olds.  The original discussion was 18 year old adults.

    • The men would do a whole lot better if they taught men how to lead.  Leading comes first then obedience, it doesn't work the other way around. I don't think any woman could obey a man into being a good leader.
