A friend of mine’s church is celebrating its 300th anniversary and they plan to recreate a “typical Sunday service” from the time. They told me, “All the women will not be allowed to attend because they weren’t then.”
“I’m going to stop you right there- cosplaying historic oppression and misogyny do not have historic value in this context.”
“But the women are into it!”
No. You think this is a good in 2026 America? Just make everyone read The Witch of Blackbird Pond and move on.
