    My recent struggle with gender

    OK, so I've posted about feeling abnormal as a Christian man here before, but the other day, something happened that made my insecurities worse. See, for the time being, I live with my grandmother and great-aunt. Two days ago, my grandmother was driving me home from work, and it recently snowed...

    Is it unbliblical for a Christian man to be attracted to androgynous women?

    So apparently, my year has started with me learning I have problems with my mouth (cursing and disrespect), and God helping me get dental coverage--which I prayed for on the same day...and me basically tearing my hair out over my romantic preferences again. Ugh! I'm sorry, but I spend way more...

    I got baptized this morning. Where to go from here?

    OK, so you read the title. You know that as a Christian, I got baptized this morning at my church; Beginning of the 1st Sunday service. I've been going to this non-denominational church since September 2024 (so for 3 months). Before I begin, here's the church's doctrine. The Bible is God's...

    A man being attracted to heroism in women: Godly, or ungodly?

    "Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends." -John 15:13, New International Version This verse is more or less the subject of my inquiry, and from complementarians and egalitarians alike, I'd like some counsel. Recently, I've realized that before I am ready to...

    (Soul Searching) Realizing what I look for in a Godly woman

    OK, I've posted here before venting about what I look for in an SO. I'm on Twitter--not X--a lot, and the kind of woman I see being hyped up in Christian circles a lot is feminine, soft, delicate (physically), wants lots of kids, is a good cook, and complementarian. But what my heart craves, as...

    How to deal with (romantic) loneliness as a Christian?

    OK, so I've posted here about finding a church to go to, and struggling with being a Christian man who isn't that crazy about femininity. In a previous post, (So, I finally found a church. How it's going so far), I vented that one of the sins I struggle the most with is lust. And that lust is...

    Pursuing Godly marriage and relationships as an egalitarian? (VENT)

    OK, so I found a church that I'll be attending now. What's important to know is that this church is egalitarian, like me. Thankfully, it's theologically conservative; I wouldn't grow spiritually if it was one of these "Progressive Christian" churches. I do want to grow spiritually, and ideally...

    So, I finally found a church. How it's going so far

    OK, so after years of being a nonbeliever and more years of being lukewarm, I found a church in my state to attend. See, before July 2024, I didn't own a Bible, I had no Christian friends, and while I did watch some Christian content, I did not attend a church. Even now, I struggle with sins...

    "The Parisian Beauty" (Has some Christian theming)

    Ok, so months ago, I wrote this love poem, and I wanted to know your thoughts. While not the main focus, it does have some Christian themes, and the narrator is essentially a self-insert of me. I'd like to know what my fellow Christians think. I have an unfinished poem that's essentially a...

    Being an "effeminate" Christman man, and wanting a masculine Christian woman--Is this normal or right?

    This is basically a "part 2" to my first post here. (shout-out to @Sif and @bèlla ) https://www.christianforums.com/threads/i-want-to-date-and-marry-but-im-an-effeminate-christian-man-what-do-i-do.8301612/#post-77709742 To summarize, I felt abnormal as a Christian man because I find...

    Being a Christian man, but finding femininity unattractive? Help?

    This is basically a "part 2" to my first post here. https://www.christianforums.com/threads/i-want-to-date-and-marry-but-im-an-effeminate-christian-man-what-do-i-do.8301612/#post-77709742 To summarize, I felt abnormal as a Christian man because I find masculinity in women attractive, while...

    Complementarians who used to be egalitarian, and egalitarians who used to be complementarian, what made you go in this direction?

    For me personally, I was always staunchly egalitarian. Meaning that I do not believe that traditional gender roles (men being the leader of the household and the church in particular) are a mandate for a Christian life. Complementarians are those who do believe in traditional gender roles. So...

    I want to date and marry, but I'm an "effeminate" Christian man. What do I do?

    I'm an egalitarian Christian. Non-denominational, although I may join Grace Communion International. And as the title of the post implies, I'm the kind of Christian man that complementarian pastors on Twitter (I refuse to call that site X) complain about--unmasculine. No, I don't have long hair...
