Ah, yes. I remember when I was a young 19-year old fundie. Oh, I was a preacher boy’s dream. I behaved just like a proper potential preacher’s wife, and I didn’t lack for preacher boys to ask me out on dates. I was groomed and perfect for the part.
Thank God that He had other plans, and didn’t let me marry one of those guys. Seriously, something kept me from getting in a serious relationship with one. Later, I would discover the truth about the IFB movement, and start to truly live life out of legalism.
I must say, though, that now that I’m out of the IFB movement and am married to someone who also left the IFB movement, the word “submissive” has taken on a whole new meaning.
A wonderful, new meaning.
This ‘ad’ is a joke, right? Or something dug out of an archive from 50 years ago???
I nominate you to call one, and find out!
I think one of the things most amazing to people outside of Fundieism is that so much of the stuff they just KNOW has to be parody isn’t.
Is it bad that I want to get a bumper sticker (one of those sarcastic ones) which says “Jezebel and PROUD of it”?
Not in the least. Out of curiosity, do you want to get a coffee some time? 😀

A silly blog dedicated to Independent Fundamental Baptists, their standards, their beliefs, and their craziness.
