In "Women Alone: Feminist's False Promise and the Decline of Dignity" we'll discuss how an entire generation of women have been betrayed by the feminists who claim to represent them. In a culture focused on female empowerment, women have become ever more objectified. Being a feminist today means rejecting an ideal of feminine virtue ... and endorsing abortion as a sacred rite and a fundamental building block of the feminine sisterhood. And yet, four decades after the heyday of "women's liberation" rather than seeing women empowered, we are seeing the growth of an international business that has profited on destroying the dignity of women. We are marrying later, divorce more, and wrestling with infertility and childlessness. Today, the soul of womanhood is at stake. The feminist movement presented itself as the answer to "what women want" -- but they have corupted young people with a distorted vision of liberty. They have constructed a faulty intellectual edifice that is rooted in abortion as the basis of female empowerment, and radical equality with men as the source of "reproductive justice." The result has been a loss of a cultural narrative for feminity that works for young modern women -- leaving a legacy of bewilderment, loneliness, and sorrow . . . leaving women, alone.
