I want my three daughters to grow up knowing the beauty and strength of femininity.
Tell me, which depiction of womanhood is the most graceful, valiant, and attractive?
On one hand, we have:
The faithfulness and humility of Mary, mother of Jesus:
The bravery and cunning of Queen Esther:
The fierce loyalty of Tolkien's Eowyn of Rohan:
The intelligence and poise of Austen's Elizabeth Bennet:
On the other hand, we have this:
Which depiction of femininity is real and powerful, and which one is a mockery straight from hell itself?
