I can't believe I feel compelled to make this post. But there has been enough discussion going around that seems strongly misguided with anti-woman sentiment. There is already sufficient talk in the sidebar on this, but maybe a fresh bit of content will at least shut it up for a while.


Women will know more than you.

1 Samual 25 illustrates to us that not only can women have valuable input, but that they are also competent and capable of saving us from others from their own foolishness. Had Abigail not moved tactfully to appease David, her husband, and likely her entire livelihood would have been taken from her.

The question "should advice ever be taken from a woman" is... honestly I'm pretty taken aback by it. Listen, I'm not trying to say you always take it, but use your noggin'. Mimic the Bereans, solid advice from an established, balanced, and God-fearing person should always be taken into consideration, regardless of creed, sex, race, species, whatever.

You will always run into situations where a woman absolutely could have more knowledge then you.

Women Have Autonomy to do Right and Wrong

Women can choose to sin, or not. Just like you or I. Being Redpilled doesn't remove a woman of their ability to make good or bad choices. Even if everything you do is right in line with Christ's desires. That's kind of sin's shtick. Stop trying to figure out the secret recipe for forcing your wife's heart - you can't.

I am not making this point to tell you guys you can relax - you shouldn't. There are ways we can make our spouse less likely to sin by leading and being a man. Thing is though, you need to do these things for YOU. Don't be a better man because you don't want her to sin. Be a better man because Christ calls us to be. The benefit to her is just a side effect.

Understand this: you will not be on trial for her sins. She will be. You will be on trial for your own, and being a lukewarm milquetoast will be on that docket if you use this as an excuse to pass on your responsibility.

Women Have Utility

(This is more for you younger guys beginning to internalize RP content.)

Women were literally created to be help mates. If your wife is a financial wiz - and she very well might be - delegate to her! If my wife was capable of making 30% - 40% return on stocks you can bet you sweet booty I'd be having her take point on our finances. If your sister has some insight into the quality of person someone else is, obviously consider it. Being a good captain means utilizing your whole crew. You'd be stupid to have your #2 loaf around because you don't trust her (without reason) to complete sophisticated tasks.

Your mission should be bigger than the capabilities of a single man. To be dismissive of her skills would be a huge disservice to that. Additionally devaluing a fully capable woman to pedantic jobs could very easily lead her to sin - have expectations, women are NOT incompetent.
