While Gen Z girls have largely look up to The Kardashians and various Hip Hop artists rapping about private parts, Erika Kirk is on a mission.
Feminist trolls on the other side say there’s “no way” she can fill the shoes of her husband who spread “toxicity” (ahem-truth) to kids at college campuses. Other trolls take to sob stories written by leftist rags who dare call themselves “the paper of record” about how they got fired for their deranged rants on social media. These sub-humans in their derangement, did not once take into account the pain felt by another woman (Erika Kirk)-a wife and a mother before they drug her dead husband’s name through the dirt.
Erika Kirk promised to carry on the legacy of her late husband. But her brand may be slightly different than Charlie’s. As Charlie Kirk’s appearances on college campuses largely appealed to young, Conservative men, Erika Kirk’s appearances could possibly turn out young women.
This is a good thing considering the latest data indicates that young men actually put marriage and children higher on the list of living a fulfilling and successful life than their female counterparts who are sitting next to them in their lecture halls.
As mentioned before, I have talked to my son, who is on a university campus right now about finding love. I admit, I alternate between Don’t Mess With My Boy or I’ll Bust You Up Italian mother and an Upper-West-Side Yenta who wants him to find his perfect match and the love of his life at university. He is a smart, good-looking kid who is quite physically fit. I like to think he’s quite the catch. And he, luckily, talks very candidly about his experiences. After freshman year alone, he met girls who attached their pronouns to their names. He met one that was happy to “show him all the parties”. He met another who hinted (not so subtly) about her roommate being “gone all weekend”, and when he decided to keep the “date” outside of the dorm room, she was not at all interested. He had encountered a girl who dated a buddy of his, who called him “fine” in a chat and came on very strong. He did some of the math and saw this girl basically followed all of her exes’ male friends on Instagram 24 hours post break-up. He became embroiled in a revenge plot of sorts. Luckily, he stayed away and embraced “bro code”. Alas, the young woman ended up back in the arms of her ex (poor, dumb guy) on a fraternity away weekend, and she wove quite the tale. You guessed it. The guy bought it, hook, line and sinker, and he and my son are no longer friends. Then, there was the so-called “Conservative” girl who “loves Jesus” and country music (lots these types at Watershed). She was getting drunk at frat parties nightly and two-timing him with a guy in a neighboring town, while playing some serious gaslighting mind games.
By the end of freshman year, he was done with the dating pool. He called it “incredibly toxic”. He does not want a girl who just wants to hook up. He does not want a girl whose life is frat parties. He doesn’t want someone who lacks focus. He is convinced that he will not meet her at any of the Greek houses, or at a football game. (He is not at a campus church yet but we pray God works on his heart there.) Right now, he does not want a girl to ruin his trajectory for a grad school program. He wants to date to marry but some of these young women are not currently equipped or ready for that. They are being told they don’t need that to be fulfilled. The climate on campuses is mostly Girl Boss/Party Chick vibes all around, thrown out with an occasional “But I do love me some Jesus”. Confusing? Frustrating? You bet. Best to just steer clear.
Be virtuous. From AI:
…to be virtuous means to behave in a morally excellent and upright way, conforming to principles of right and wrong, and showing high moral standards. A virtuous person demonstrates qualities like honesty, kindness, and righteousness in their actions and character. The term can also have an older, less common meaning of being chaste or sexually pure, especially when referring to women.
Libby Emmons wrote for The New York Post recently about her experience at Charlie Kirk’s memorial:
What so many Millennial and Gen X women didn’t learn until it was almost too late — and what some never learned at all — is that motherhood is not the life-ending scourge we had been taught it was, and career is not the greatest love of all.
There is immense strength in being a mother and wife, and it does not demean women to say so; it lifts us up.
They’ve learned that men are their playthings, that sex bears no consequence either emotionally or physically, and that family is a burden that short-circuits a carefree life.
And they’ve grown into miserable adults, steeped in a victimhood mentality, using prescription drugs, endless therapy sessions and massive workloads to ease their suffering.
It hasn’t worked.
Maybe American women are ready for a new message, one of hope, one that asks them to look beyond their own impulses for fulfillment.”-Libby Emmons, New York Post
Dear God, let it be so! Erika Kirk has the potential to be a true game-changer here and, like I’ve said before, I am all for this shift.
Our strength is found in God’s design for our role. We are the guardians. We are the encouragers. We are the preservers.
Guard your heart. Everything you do flows from it.”-Erika Kirk
Ain’t that the truth! It seems as if the roles have reversed here with some of our young men. My young man IS guarding his heart. I do pray Erika Kirk sets foot on college campuses to change some minds. I do believe all of our young people will be better for it.
P.S. If anyone knows any cute, Conservative young women, I know just the guy…(wink, wink)…
