Women's Dignity

For years now, media images in advertising as well as in women's magazines have shown an unrealistic concept of what women should be. I am sure these images, especially for girls/women who were raised with traditional Christian family values, will send a confusing message that women are not good enough as God made them but that they need to be like the images they see in media.

Fortunately, a group of men have taken up the defense of women's dignity with a web site called Demand Your Dignity! It provides resources in the way of helpful videos and articles that will show women they do not need to look like the pictures in the magazines to be loved. There are a couple of Catholic Answers staffers who have contributed to this web site as well.

WARNING: The web site is definitely for older teens and adults due to some of the subject matter so browse with care. To view, click here.
