I was lucky enough to grow up in the church, but after I left home at 18, 90% of the people around me were atheist leftists, so it was difficult not to be influenced. The culture around me insisted that true freedom meant being free from religion, free from tradition, and free from marriage. It taught me that I’d been sold a lie and that conservatism was boring and stereotypical gender roles were archaic, and for a woman to be truly happy, she should live independently, free from the constraints of being a mother.
