On this point something I've been thinking about is the mainstream culture narrative on sexual objectification and what they refer to as "slut shaming". In practice, this means that only faults in men are pointed out whereby they will be referred to as "sexists objectifying women/blaming women for their lusts". However, this often lacks self reflection on this: are these women holding themselves to a high moral standard too, which surely one must to demand it in others? Or, is it a case of demanding that women must be allowed to do whatever whenever without "oppressive" restraints, whereas men are blamed for all? It seems to trend towards the latter.

Therefore, I think that if we women expect high standards in men then we must also be held to account and strive to better ourselves and admit our sins before we can complain about them in others. When I see people outraged at the suggestion that women should reflect on whether they are behaving as well as we could before 'casting stones' so to speak, what I see is a refusal of self awareness and repentance (misandry too). Likewise, I think young women especially now need to hear the reality that if we present ourselves in a certain way, we can't be surprised that it attracts the worst in men. Unfortunately the mainstream narrative denies this and therefore causes confusion and frustration, which is why many double down deeper into the rabbit hole of third wave or radical feminism or gender theories. On the positive side, when you can see the inverted nature of society, this is why Christianity makes complete sense and there seems to be some people at least getting drawn back to it.
