Here's a quick listing of frequently used terms found on the No Longer Quivering blog and forums ~ and what these words commonly mean.
Quiverfull ~ the ideal of "allowing the Lord to plan our family" ~ this generally means, no birth control.
The Patriarchy ~ (a.k.a. "capital-P Partiarchy) the social order in which authority, power and favor is vested primarily in males. As used here at NLQ, "the patriarchy" refers not only to the external social construct, but also to the mindset which ~ whether overtly or subconsciously~ assumes and accepts male dominance and privilege.
Patriarchy ~ the family structured around the belief that the husband/father is the "head of the household" and the wife/children are to be in submission to him "as unto the Lord."
Little-p patriarchy ~ subtle ways in which male privilege and dominance is practiced and perpetuated ~ for instance: "My husband allows me to be my own person and make my own choices."
QF/P ~ abbreviation for "Quiverfull/Patriarchy"
Quivering ~ living according to the principles of the Quiverfull/Patriarchal worldview.
Q.D. ~ abbreviation for "Quivering Days" ~ meaning back when we believed and lived out the QF/P worldview.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well ... that's as much as I've come up with so far ~ I'm sure there are plenty more ~ I just am not really thinking very hard today. LOL
Please submit your suggestions for any words or terms commonly used here on the Forums which may not be readily understood by outsiders or new people. Thanks!
