    It’s like Guardini said (emphasis added): ‘The world to come will be filled with animosity and danger, but it will be a world open and clean.’

    As distressing as this really is, it does at least present the possibility of scoring beaucoup Beatitudes points.

    Father John Hardon calls such version of the female gender “worldy women” (vs. feminists) – and their male counterparts “worldly men” (instead of men who are pretending to be feminists in order to get laid).

    (More here on that: http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/04/27/the-adulterous-sins-of-our-father-figures/)

    But I like that term. “Worldly women.”

    It reminds me of this:

    “Experience, though noon auctoritee
    Were in this world, is right ynogh for me
    To speke of wo that is in mariage;
    For, lordynges, sith I twelve yeer was of age,
    Thonked be God that is eterne on lyve,
    Housbondes at chirche dore I have had fyve, —
    If I so ofte myghte have ywedded bee, —
    And alle were worthy men in hir degree….”
    Etc.
