Influence of Femininity


The influence of applied femininity is, by any measure, incredibly determinative. In every culture, in every age, the power is awesome. And dangerous. As with any significant reservoir of power it may be used for good or ill. Its impact may be constructive or destructive. Like a mighty river, it is a force that may turn the turbines and generate power that will light up a community, a home, and a man’s whole life. But undisciplined and unchecked, it may devastate, demoralize, and utterly destroy.

Some women have no clue how much actual power they hold, and those are the women who destroy their husbands by default. Other women are acutely aware of their power and make a conscious decision to become high controllers. But still other women, keenly aware of the power God has vested in their femininity, make a deliberate choice to use that power only for good.

- Stu Weber, Four Pillars of a Man’s Heart, pages 258-259

    Hi Natalie! I found your website through a comment you left on a blog-the lady who lives in Morocco. I thought I’d check out your website because you said you went to Meknes and Rabat. Now I see from your profile that you went to MBI! So did I! I also went to Rabat for my internship-I was an Applied Linguistics major. Visit my blog and drop me a comment if you get the chance!

    I love this! I highly recommend Michelle Mckinney Hammond’s book “The Power of Femininity” as well. It sounds like it is feminist but far from it! It’s on the lines of what you shared. I may not agree with everything, but it has really opened my eyes to the gift of womanhood and how important it is to use it properly. Thank you for your post!
