Fetishization

The two worst things you can subject an idea to is to romanticize it or to fetishize it. Fetish in this definition is "something irrationally revered" (OED), which I will explain furthermore by saying that is it often put into action in order to gain more from it than what it has to offer. It is a projection of the flesh onto the spirit, it is a delusion, a perversion, and it usually leads to obsession. The most common association to fetish that humans face is the fetishism of food and sexuality.

Romanticization is "To make romantic or idealized in character; to make (something) seem better or more appealing than it really is; to describe, portray, or view in a romantic manner." (OED) Things that are romanticized are usually horrible and disturbing evils (and sometimes fetishes) in order to sidle through the human's natural gut-reactions to evil, tweak their moral compass and invade their mind. Common romanticizations that I've witnessed that are the most disturbing are Japanese anime collections called Loli, of small female children willingly open to be sexual with adult men. The romanticization of female children as whimsical, innocent and pure beings makes it all the more easy to create a pedophilic narrative in one's mind that seems harmless and caring instead of perverted and predatorial. Thug life is often romanticized as well, making it seem noble and honourable when it is clearly more like a forced engagement of evil, violence and ultimately rape and murder. 

Christian Oppression, it's always been, and it's ignored

This is a problem for all genders, but mainly addressed toward women. Women are the caretakers in our society, let's face it. There are far more single-mothers than there are single fathers. Single fathers, however, being a mother myself, I can say I have the utmost respect for, of course single-mothers as well. But what I wanted to say is that I stumbled on a highly Christian mothering website the other day. The woman who blogged wrote some very intense and clearly emotionally-driven things. Her main point is that there is a lot of pressure toward her because she has children and wants children and loves to use her reproductive system because it's get her closer to God. This is not a question of my opinion about all of this is, it's about the ridiculous amount of comments underneath this that have basically horror stories of women who have been ridiculed by childless women for the fact that they have a lot of children; who are being told that they are 'patriarchal' in not using chemical contraception; and that their marriage won't last because of the 'stress of parenting'. They also get asked if they will have abortions while heavily pregnant or after telling someone casually, stating: I'm pregnant.
