In this episode, KT and Mary are joined by Murieann Lynch at Load bearing assumptions to discuss her recent piece “Why are so many Catholic feminists converts?”
We discuss why online Catholic feminism doesn’t work for Lynch (and us) as a cradle Catholic and discomfort with overemphasis in Catholic circles on motherhood as the ‘feminine genius.’ Other topics include consecrated virgins, the all-male priesthood, and seeing faith as something we’re working out in real time.
