Thialand’s Pink Punishment & Gender Roles
I’ve been appreciating the new gender blog put out by the Council On Biblical Manhood & Womanhood. I’d encourage you to check out their post today regarding the new "pink punishment" for police officers in Thialand and how this punishment points to the equal yet different way in which God has created men and women. It’s sad to know that, for many men, this pink punishment wouldn’t serve as a deterrent here in the Bay Area.
this is wild! my thought is if paris hilton or one of those girls caught on to this..it could end up being a fashion trend here!? Yes! kind of like the “pet rock” or “mood rings”
This kind of punishment sends the message that association with femininity is shameful and humiliating–a message that is inherently degrading and disrespectful to women as co-inheritors to God’s kingdom, equal in value and dignity to men. Associating feminintiy with humiliation and punishment is surely not a message that complementarians want to latch on to, no? I’m thinking that this is something towards which both and radical feminists (of which I am one) and complementarians should be united in opposition.
