That which exists as a slogan in the West is primarily the freedom of women. Unfortunately, what’s inferred from freedom in the Western world is freedom in an incorrect and harmful sense – that is, freedom from the ties of a family, absolute freedom from the influence of men, and freedom from even the constraints of marriage, the formation of a family, and raising children. A temporary, lustful goal has been put in place of these and not freedom in its true sense.
