The basic convo was: We were all perfect princesses until we married our TERRIBLE husbands, whom we knew were terrible but married anyway because of: church, patriarchy, culture BS? And now that we’re free, we’re PERFECT again! Tra-la-la. (Jane Capstitcher scribe, I love you!
Teeth too white but she looks damn good and like she knows how to have fun.

Really? Where? I've never seen her do this and I've followed her a long time. I remember her being pretty chummy with her ex after their divorce. And even in her book she didn't trash him or really spill any tea. (I admit I was disappointed.) If there is tea I've missed please point me to it!

This is why I can’t take Jen’s racial advocacy seriously. When you make a huge portion of your career about women and lifting up other women and the importance of female friendships above all but you don’t allow any women of color near your inner circle despite living in one of the most diverse parts of the country, it shows a lot about true values.

It has a whopping two entries on IG so I took a peek on FB. It has more traction there but not an astronomical response. She's asking for her fans to "nominate someone who is crushing this thing we call life."
One person on FB has nominated herself citing that she's "faithful while deconstructing Oregon mama" and I read it without my readers and thought it said "faithful WHITE deconstructing Oregon mama" LOL.
In other news around the internet, Tina Hatmaker's profile is now public.
These people, man. They are more entertaining than the Australian breakdancing zero score girl.

Jen never mentioned her and then out of the blue, this woman over a decade younger is their new bff. It seems like her husband bought her into the group with gifts like Vespas for everybody and trips away whereas that Other heavyset woman who is sometimes in their bff photos and sometimes not seems to have been passed over for a BFF promotion.
I’m sure Jen would love a dark-skinned friend to validate her posturing as an “ally” yet with these types of people and groups, you have to pay a hefty entrance fee to get in the door and if you’re a POC especially, I’m sure you have to pay a hefty price in self-worth to stay in the door.
Someone already said it that the kids didn’t have a choice to be adopted and the bf w/o any black friends either is obviously just in it for the promo.
Not saying Jen is racist but I agree it’s telling and way too common with sjw White feminism. Posting about anti-racism and diversity and MLK but putting up subtle barriers to keep POC at a distance.
Imagine what it could do for the self-esteem of child like R to see her mom embrace a black woman as she embraces white women, in a deep enduring, ride or die type of friendship.
I think, to a large degree, the entire progressive thing is largely about image rather than substance, about being seen striking the right poses and signaling for the right causes rather than actually living anything out. It's what the late writer Tom Wolfe referred to as "radical chic."
I was in a church full of these sorts of people for over a decade. A large contingent of the women were Glennon and Jen fans who advocated social justice causes and posted about racism on their Facebook pages, etc. Ironically, the most authentic members of our church, who ministered to all kinds of people in all kinds of low key, non-flashy ways, were the most theologically and politically conservative family in the church. The husband voted for Trump. He also mentored young black men in the Chicago public school system. He was there for me when I had a major mental health issue.
It reminds me of Jesus words: "for that which is highly esteemed among men is detestable in the sight of God."
Progressivism is fashionable in these circles. Feminism too. But a lot of it is just empty posing, as you said.
I work in media and by far the nastiest most back stabbing most anti-women managers and editors are the loudest public “feminists”.
This may be anecdotal, but I’m seeing a big shift in “real life”. I have several super progressive, white women in my family. Their social media accounts from 2016-2022’ish were NON-STOP liberal campaigns. The black squares, the Jan 6 pictures, the pink p*ssy hats, abortion is healthcare, all of it. My COUSIN literally said (via Instagram), that anyone not aligning with her political beliefs should “remove themselves” from her life. Lol. No one did, of course.
Now? Complete SILENCE. They’re still active on social media, but post NOTHING political. No Kamala ads, no “the boxer is a woman!” posts, not even a single mention of Palestine.
What happened???
Is anyone else seeing the same with their “real life” people?
Maybe slightly less. The "worst offenders" in my personal circle have been quieter but I think they're just starting to get amped up for the elections, LOL. I also think there has been some settling and maybe a small shift toward center for some of them. Might have something to do with the economy, might have something to do with the fact that women's spaces are being taken away from us, or might have something to do with feeling the alienation that resulted from posts like that. Who knows? I consider myself just right of center but over the past eight years, my more blue leaning friends have slid waaaayyyyy left and now I am "uber right wing" in their eyes, which is not how I see myself or view the world.
Out of all my black square pink cooter hat posting friends, I know two that actually give their time to the causes they believe in.
