As for a woman never going out without a man, if that’s what you like, Iran and Afghanistan put women to death for that crime. I’m afraid I’d have perished long ago, shriveled up from dehydration.  I’ve always been single and if I need something done, need to go out of the house, it’s either do it myself or do without. I’ve never seen traditional Catholic men falling over themselves to escort me to my car when Mass or whatever lets out after dark. The chapel is in an unsafe area, especially at night. Ever heard of Defensive Driving? I practice Wide Awake Walking.


His Lordship knew that I myself went to his Masses by myself, not the best area either, and I don't drive. Many of us did so.

I also never found myself treated any differently in feminine apparel vs my peers who didn't. Compliments here and there, yes, but nothing out of ordinary. I'm really sorry for the incidents you had. I agree that many "trad" people can be really hypocritical. Anytime, any woman mentioning being harassed, it's NOT ok to suggest "Maybe you showed your ankle? Maybe you made eye contact? You smile?" etc. Men do so because they were behaving like beasts not because of how women dressed. And yes a lot of people live in a complete bubble and have absolutely no idea how modern world is like now, it can be good for their own sake, but make them terrible for giving advices to people who don't live in bubble like that.

All women are dependent. The problem is modern women are just dependent on their Jew masters in hidden corridors rather than their fathers or husbands.


I am noticing in your response that you not once mentioned any male relative. If you are truly on your own because of death or whatever, I'm very sorry about that. But that is not normal at all, and should rarely be talked about, as it creates the impression in women's minds that this situation is kind of an acceptable way for a woman to be. It is not. It is desperately lonely for them. And damaging. I say so as a man who loves the women in my life, and cares about whats best for them.
Well, yes, nobody really wants to be dependent. Yes, it's lonely and damaging. If it's acceptable? Well, guess what, a lot of us just have to live like this, accepting it or not. It's called reality.
As she also mentioned above, men's chivalry is also dead. I also never had any gentleman from Mass who voluntarily offer to escort me even for a 5 mins walk, sometimes even when they also needed to go the same direction! :laugh1:
I don't want to be independent. But real life teaches me I can only be dependent on God and my guardian angel in my day to day life. I simply don't believe majority of women have the luxury (even you call it necessity) of always having somebody going to places with them. Even when you're a married woman and a home maker, don't you need to go buy food etc.?

And we don't even live in Catholic Societies anymore.  We don't have Catholic neighbors.   We can't meet like minded women at the "watering hole". Women were never meant to be hermits and live with just their children.  When will some people wake up to the reality that we live in 2026, not 1526?
