This is just getting more and more laughable. "I pondered whether or not this article would offend our readers;..."
Yeah right! It doesn't matter and you know it.
A. None of Pink Truth's "readers" will be offended by anything Pink Truth says.
B. Even if they were offended, they would never say anything about it, because
C. If you express a disagreement you get kicked to the curb so fast no one will even know you disagreed.
Additionally, this article is simply garbage. The relationship between a husband and a wife is extremely unique and deeply personal. There are husbands and wives that follow strictly the "man is the bread winner and woman is the housekeeper" tradition and are content and happy with it. There are others that completely flip that and the wife makes the money and the husband stays home with the kids and keeps the house running and they are content and happy with that. There are also a myriad of combinations between (and on either side of) these two.
For some, submission means that the husband makes all the decisions with little or no input from the wife while others have active and energetic conversations with the ultimate responsibility of the decision resting on the husband. Still others don't believe in or agree with the concept of one person being submitted to another.
Mary Kay is open to ALL of these people and they are ALL allowed to run Mary Kay the way they see fit. If someone's belief in the way their marriage operates is weak enough that someone can come along and convince them otherwise, than that someone (be it Mary Kay or someone/something else) will either cause their marriage to be stronger or destroy it.
Do some in Mary Kay 'preach' marriage principles that are different than what I believe? Yes. Does that mean that the whole company and the opportunity is a 'rattlesnake taking potshots at your wife's legs'? No.
Whether you are a husband or a wife dealing with Mary Kay and how it fits in your marriage, prioritize what is important to YOU and your spouse, see if Mary Kay can fit within that paradigm and make your decisions about Mary Kay based on that. Or, if Mary Kay is more important than your relationship (I hope not) than you will make your decisions based on Mary Kay and decide what to do with your relationship based on that. There have been women that have come out of abusive relationships as a result of the empowerment that Mary Kay offered. Submission and being abused are NOT the same thing.
Shame on you Pink Truth for seeing fit to preach at people while claiming to only present the truth. |
