🧵Did Obergefell produce the benefits that advocates predicted?
In 2015, Americans were told redefining marriage would provide greater stability for same-sex couples, encourage marriage over cohabitation, and improve the well-being of sexual minorities.
Eleven years later, we have data—not predictions.

Children have a right to a childhood that isn't a battleground for adult ideologies. Boys are boys, girls are girls, and both deserve media that tells them the truth, gently and at their own pace.
Parents, you're not overreacting. It's hard to keep up with everything on every screen. But you know your child best, and it's okay to say no to shows that overstimulate them or confuse them about who they are. Guarding childhood is part of the job.
It’s undeniable that the quality of children’s media has taken a serious nosedive, oftentimes being purposefully overstimulating and engineered to hijack their attention spans, or written to impart radical narratives
Stay vigilant and PICKY about what your child is exposed to!

When men can't provide, fewer marriages form. When fewer marriages form, fewer children are born, and more grow up without their dads. Men's work isn't a side issue for family policy. #MenMatter
Working-age men have LOST jobs, while women have captured virtually 100% of the net new jobs.
Men not working translates into men not marrying, which translates into population rapidly falling and American power declining.
Are we in a man-cession?

The gap is in the pews, not the label: 79% of churchgoing Catholics and 74% of churchgoing Protestants say they're very happy in marriage, vs. 66% of Nones. Nominal affiliation barely moves the needle. Faith practiced together strengthens families. Thanks for this, @FamStudies.
Catholic and Protestant churchgoers are more likely than every other group to be happily married, including religious “Nones” —a pattern that holds even after accounting for education, race, age, and sex.
Neither nominal Catholics nor nominal Protestants enjoy a significant happiness advantage over Nones, implying that it is active church participation, not merely affiliation, that produces happier marriages.

There's something beautiful about a changing season. The trees begin to let go. The days grow shorter. The air becomes crisp. What was green and familiar slowly gives way to something new.
And yet, we sometimes resist change in our own lives.
We want to hold onto seasons that were comfortable. We wish we could go back to moments that felt simpler. We may even wonder why God is allowing something to change when we were perfectly content with the way things were.
But seasons are meant to change.
Sometimes God asks us to release something simply because He is leading us somewhere new. Sometimes the new season doesn’t look anything like we expected.
If you’re standing at the edge of a changing season right now, you don’t have to know exactly what comes next. You can simply trust that God is there in the letting go, in the waiting, and in whatever comes after.
Change can be bittersweet, but it can also be an invitation to trust.
The leaves remind us that letting go isn’t always the end of something beautiful. Sometimes it’s how we make room for what comes next.

We call career planning prudent and marriage planning desperate, yet the data shows marriage matters more for happiness than a job or a high income. A spouse deserves at least as much intentionality as a job search.
To every single person who's been told the problem is you: it may not be. Wanting marriage isn't desperate. Taking real steps to find a spouse, even moving, just means you're taking the most important relationship of your life seriously.
Thank you for making the case, @BradWilcoxIFS.
"Moving somewhere with better career prospects is ambitious and a smart decision, but moving somewhere with better marriage prospects seems like madness, a desperate gamble. Is finding a spouse not as important, if not more important, than our careers?
As Brad Wilcox reports in his book Get Married, marriage is a stronger predictor of happiness than having a job and even of having an above-average income. Employment raises the odds of happiness by about 50 percent, a high income by about 88 percent, and marriage by about 151 percent. Why, then, do we gather data on everything that could possibly affect our careers, but not our marriages?"

Many adult children are being told that cutting off a parent is self-care. But a flawed parent isn't the same as a dangerous one.

Children don't need a "childcare provider." They need their mother. The work of the home is real work, and it deserves real respect. We pay strangers to do each of these jobs, and nobody questions their value. Combine them all in one woman who does it out of love, and suddenly it's "What does she do all day?" The answer: she's raising the next generation.
Childcare is work. Teaching children is work. Cooking is work. Cleaning is work. Driving people around is work. Managing schedules is work. Taking care of babies is work. Managing a household is work.
But somehow, and for some reason if we combine all of these things into just one woman, if we combine all of these jobs to one woman, to just one house, with children who live there and call her Mom, then people suddenly start asking, “What does she even do all day?”
You’d never ask this of any of those professions. It is only mothers at home that have this extra burden of proof, that somehow we need to justify extra hard that we indeed are productive members of society, that we indeed work hard, that we indeed do things all day long.
The only difference in all of this is that women at home do this work for the people they love, instead of for people who pay her, and that should make the work more valuable, not less.

Transgender ideology is driven by a hatred of women and their biology. It treats the female body as a problem to be solved: menstruation, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and motherhood are rewritten in "gender-neutral" language until the word "woman" disappears.

"Marry whoever you want" was never going to stop at two. Seattle just voted unanimously to recognize polyamory in city code.
The new ordinance extends protections to "consensual relationships involving multiple partners" in housing, employment, and public accommodations, and it strips "male or female" from the city's definition of sexual orientation.👇

New research in the Journal of Family Issues: people whose only sexual partner was their spouse had the lowest odds of divorce. 1–8 other partners: ~1.6× higher. 9+: roughly triple. The link held even after controlling for religiosity, attitudes, and SES.
The sexual revolution promised freedom without consequences. The data tells a different story.
Practice isn’t always perfect.
People whose only sexual partner was their spouse have the lowest divorce odds.
✔️1–8 other partners: ~1.6× higher odds
✔️9+: ~3× higher odds
Extra partners linked to greater divorce risk, even after religiosity, attitudes, SES controlled.
Bottom line: Experience can be a teacher. But it can also be habit building.

Nothing "sudden" about it. We've been saying it for years: a child is not a contract deliverable. Surrogacy asks women to hand over the baby they carried and asks children to lose the first person they ever knew. That's not pro-woman or pro-child.
Children aren’t products. Their relationship to their mother matters, their origins matter, and their rights matter.
Centering the child isn’t anti-woman.
It’s pro-child.

Are people born gay? The largest genetic study ever conducted found no "gay gene." Identical twins often differ in orientation. Even the @APA says there's no consensus on the cause.
"Born this way" is a slogan, not a scientific finding.
Some LGBT-identifying researchers now say it's time to retire it. @DrJrobackmorse walks through the evidence and explains why the science moved on long before the story did.👇

Normalize liking your husband.
We live in a culture where a wife publicly trashing her husband is “relatable,” but Taylor Swift enthusiastically cheering for hers is somehow cringe.
That’s completely backwards.
The constant “my husband is an incompetent idiot” shtick isn’t funny, it’s corrosive.
Normalize actually liking your husband.
Cheer for him. Brag about him. Be embarrassingly proud of him.
Marriage could use a lot more of that.
