Western Protestantism as been facing dangerous upheaval over the last two decades. I still believe Evangelicals are still fighting against the tide of secularism, but the waves strong and there are many.

However, I can also think of few who are more blue-pilled than the naive, devout Evangelical man. The pedestalizing of women I saw in my Baptist church growing up was overwhelming. The only thing expected from a wife was cooking. They were not to be exposed to anything difficult or strenuous.

These were men who professed to be the heads of their household, while their bathrooms were decorated in lavender and flowers, their bed frames white with lace skirts, they drive a minivan or feminine SUV with a stick family decal, their wives buy their clothes and select what they wear in public, determine his style of hair.

You might say this is nitpicking on frivolity and attribute it to the man's apathy concerning domestic affairs. Not true. A man's home is his castle isn't an axiom for nothing. We care and take pride in our surroundings. No single man's house could be mistaken for a woman's, yet married men allow their homes to be overrun with decorations they'd never choose. Same for clothing and hairstyle. A lot of these guys will say the don't care about their appearance, but they do. Their behavior is just indicative of their neutered life and their wive's disregard for her husband's preferences. I find it very telling.

Show me a man with a lavender bathroom and I'll show you a man who does not have the respect of his wife.
