When I have more time I'll write a post on my thoughts about this.

My first thought is, "Wow, what a depressing article." I think he has some good points, but I don't think it's true for everyone. There are still great wives out there, and I know a lot of girls who picture their wedding day as the start of something new and not just the pinnacle of princessly achievement. I'm so glad that even though I see depressing/discouraging things going on, I feel like I'm part of the movement to change that, to hold on to the traditional values that ultimately will save the world.
I have to admit, though, I will never think of Snow White and Cinderella quite the same. Very striking examples; I'd never thought about them that way.
Hey, bro. Check out my blog. I tagged you in a game.
He does definitely paint a bleak picture about the decline of wifery. The funny thing is he acknowledges that wives are still raised in Christian cultures, but then he dismisses them as off limits. I do agree with him though. Girls these days, even LDS girls, aren't near as prepared to be wives as they should be. But, this goes both ways. Boys these days aren't prepared to be husbands either.
