Cultural Influences Pressuring Young Women to be Selfish, Single, and Childless

Bereans:

One of the most insidious battles taking place in our society today is the effort to undermine biblical femininity.  The "culture of death" not only strikes in the blatant forms of abortion, homosexuality, transgenderism, and euthanasia, but it also seeks to destroy God's plan for women.  The many forces behind this are demonically influenced, but they are motivated by greed, pride, self-centeredness, and hatred for God's created order.  They want to radically reinvent the roles of men and women in society because they hate God's design. (See Genesis 3:16b; 1 Timothy 2:8-15; 1 Peter 3:1-7.)

Matt Walsh, the creator, producer, and moderator of the film What Is A Woman?, in one of his podcasts this week exposes some of the messages young women are being bombarded with, particularly from so-called "influencers" on social media.  While Matt does not offer any biblical solutions, he nails it in describing the problem.  These shallow, narcissistic women are openly celebrating their divorces, childlessness, and freedom to do as they please without encumbrances such as husbands or children.  They openly encourage young followers to embrace their lifestyles.  Behind them are corporate interests who want young women in their work forces to make up for the lack of children brought about by abortion and homosexuality.  What you see and hear will make you both sad and mad.

One other aspect of this that is already having enormous ramifications is social and political.  Women who remain single overwhelmingly identify as liberal and vote over 70% with the Democrat party, which officially champions all lifestyles opposed to the family as God established it.  Studies are increasingly showing that girls who can be convinced before they are in their early twenties that marriage and childbearing are bad and that being aggressively independent is good will likely hold to those views for life, and will have a higher probability of identifying with sexually deviant lifestyles.  Apart from God's grace, they will be permanent "recruits" for liberal political and social causes and will use their money and activism to support those causes.

If you are a parent of young girls (and boys, too), arguably the most dangerous thing you can do at this time in history is allow them access to social media.  The overwhelming majority of these "influencers" are wicked, angry people who delight in making others miserable with them, and they have millions of followers.  (See Romans 1:28-32.)
