Jen Hatmaker's Analysis
Christian author Jen Hatmaker’s affirmation of the LGBT lifestyle is dangerous, according to former lesbian and book author Rosaria Butterfield.
In a column written for The Gospel Coalition, Butterfield said she would have welcomed Hatmaker’s pro-LGBT views if only it were 1999, the year that she became a Christian and left her lesbian lifestyle. Butterfield, who wrote “The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert,” said Hatmaker’s words were meant to encourage but they would also have “put a millstone” around her neck.
Last month, Hatmaker told Religion News in an interview that she supports gay marriage from both civil and spiritual perspectives. For her, members of the LGBT community should have access to the same legal protection that the

    The part that standouts to me the most was when Barbara says, “...I rejected the idea, even after all my upper middle-class friends had, guilty and as covertly as possible, hired help for themselves, because this is just not the kind of relationship I want to have with another human being…” (pg. 91). The author disagrees with the idea of having a maid to clean her house and not wanting to have this sorta connection with other human being. I would remember this because Ehrenreich has viewed the maid as human not a slave. Ehrenreich has understand the mind of a maid and knows how stressful it could be. A maid's body would rot quickly and consequences on health can be later shown as she grows older. Most maid’s have gone to work on upper class…

    This semester, the readings were a bit challenging, but overall I enjoyed the readings. It has always been very difficult for me to understand Donna Haraway, but by discussing her in class and giving examples, I was able to have a better understanding of her topics. Throughout her work Modest_Witness@Second_Millennium. FemaleMan©_Meets_OncoMouse: Feminism and Technoscience, Haraway explains that cyborgs are constructed as the postmodern icon in today’s society, because of science. Haraway explains that, “Biology was interesting not because it transcended historical practice in some positivist epistemological liftoff from Earth but because natural science was part of the lively action on the ground” (Haraway 1997, 104). Biology not only determines…

    Poteat are Christian preachers in Haw River, North Carolina and Mrs. Poteat states “as a minister, im gonna tell them what the word of God says..”. In the bible Leviticus 20:13, says “If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads”. So their attitudes or mindsets are to completely reject the actions their daughter’s sexual preference. Tonia and Brenda’s mother and daughter relationship was very close and resembled a strong bond of best friends but in efforts to strengthen their bond Tonia coming out realized it was “remarkably unsuccessful”. This means when Tonia came out to her mother, she wasn’t fully accepted with open arms. Brenda’s stereotyped feelings toward gay men and lesbians are that they feel as if they are playing heterosexual roles. The stereotype often thinks that men want to be the women in the relationship, but they just want to be themselves. She says a talk show that made her realize that all she thought about was how her daughter was having sex and didn’t think of her as a person. Also the In Living Color, small skit allows individuals to think that when you hear the term homosexual, you think of the girly man or the butch…

    ‘Psychoanalysis and Women’s Experiences of “Coming Out”’ is an essay by M. Magee and D. Miller; it is part of a collection devoted to homosexuality as seen from psychoanalytic perspective. In their essay, the authors explore historical and cultural dimensions of female homosexuality and experiences of its revelation in society. They step back in history to 1920 when Freud wrote his vision of the issue in “The Psychogenesis of a Case of Homosexuality in a Woman”. Using Freud’s opinion as a background, the authors claim the controversy and importance of the coming-out stage in terms of its impact on a social and private identity. The article states the idea of repression, which is both a barrier and a resource in coming out. Although threatening with failure as a social object, it is claimed that coming out is a healing process for a homosexual person. The point about it is that it gives a stressful resource for acting out the situation of conflict that has been kept inside for a long time (Magee, 1995, p. 98). The article deals with the challenges and uncertainties that a lesbian woman faces in her daily social interactions. The authors refute some critic’s statement about provocative and unnecessary character of coming out. Instead, they focus on coming out not as a public act but as a whole series of small choices and strategies that…

As late as 1983 Lucy Frost could talk of “her unusually low level of critical awareness” (65) and claim that she “relies … on instinct … In order to write well she needs to write honestly out of intuitive understanding. … As art it makes for failure” (65). For a long time reading the implicit in…

    Throughout the speech, Kern demonstrates reasons to why she is against homosexuals. “I honestly think it’s the biggest threat even, that our nation has, even more so than terrorism or Islam, which I think is a big threat. OK?” Homosexuals are not a threat to our nation. The comparison between terrorism and homosexuals just cannot be made. Homosexuals do not cause a danger to our country or our universe, for that matter. There have been no Americans killed by LGBT citizens, if at all, there are more Americans killing LGBT citizens, not directly, but through suicidal acts. Terrorists have killed thousands of people, posing a threat to our country, which are…
