The Wild Man by Timothy B. Husband5/29/2023 This is not to dismiss Gordon’s own voice–which is most certainly hers, and a strong one. Stephanie Gordon asserts that “When a woman speaks, she ought to direct her listeners to the wisdom of her husband,” (9) thus, the “wisdom” at the heart of this guide for women comes from a man, Timothy Gordon, who is well-known in the reactionary Catholic media sphere as a podcaster and author of The Case for Patriarchy, which was published by Crisis Publications (a division of Sophia Institute Press) in Fall 2021. We learn both the genesis of this version of wifely submission–from the highest possible authorities in the author’s life–and the intended audience–women who are seeking something radically different from contemporary ideas about women and marriage. (35)Įverything one needs to know about Stephanie Gordon’s new book, Ask Your Husband: A Catholic Guide to Femininity, published by TAN Books, can be found in this passage. It turns out that much of what he taught me (and in some cases, that which we learned together), I may hereby pass onto women who may be craving-and lacking-what I myself was formerly missing. As you will see, everything I have learned about being a submissive wife first came from answered prayers to God and then from asking my husband.
