I have three major views on the world. They dominate my thoughts and shape my opinions.
I am a Christian.
I am a feminist.
And I am right wing.
These three ideas are all fairly unpopular in Britain right now, not least of all with each other.
Many feminists accuse the bible and the church (often rightly) of being sexist. Many Christians dislike the apparent ‘feminisation’ of the UK church. And, well, it hasn’t been popular to publicly align yourself to the right in Britain since before Thatcher.
I want to write about why I believe in them, and why I feel they are completely compatible with one another. They are not exclusive viewpoints. I am proud to label myself as all three.
My posts will hopefully save any of my friends from having to listen to me continually mouth off about women, Christianity, or the left.
YAY! BLOG! Excited to see where this goes missus :)
ReplyDeleteI might need to ask you about things to do with blogs :) But thank you for encouraging me initially :D
DeleteYou definitely need to address these three things soon Nicki! I am intrigued by what you have to say, for example just how right wing and feminist are you? Are you a radical feminist who's likely to burn my house down and murder my dog just because I have the audacity to own male genitalia? Or are you just a very passionate version of what most right minded people are? Also as a conservative, what do you think of young children being allowed free milk?!
