The Whole Duty of A Woman


Books like this fascinate me. I think it's because femininity is a lost art and so often the word "submissive" is a swear word in our feminism influenced society. We no longer revere virginity or purity, but make fun of it. Chastity used to admirable, now it reviled as naive and out of touch.

Every indecent curiosity or impure Fancy is a deflowering of the mind…she that listens to wanton discourse has violated her ears.

Those words bring to mind II Corinthians 10:4-6, "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, 6 and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled."

Wise words if you ask me.
