How to be a decent woman?

[KimmySchmit]

Deepen Your Faith: Make daily or weekly Mass a priority and go to adoration. Pray the rosary daily.

Cultivate Virtues: Work on patience, gentleness, and humility. Practice the faith in your daily interactions by being joyful and forgiving.

Embrace Your Vocation: Whether called to marriage, religious life, or consecrated singlehood, view your life as a calling to serve God's kingdom.

Live Purely: Practice modesty and chastity, guarding your heart and body as a temple of the Holy Spirit.

Serve Others: Use your skills to care for others, such as volunteering at church, helping your family, or mentoring the youth.

Grow in Knowledge: Read the Bible, the Catechism, and books about the lives of the saints.

Surrender to God: Focus on trusting God during difficult times (resilience) and seeking his will above your own desires.

Being a decent Catholic wife involves prioritizing a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, which fuels your ability to love your husband and family. Key aspects include fostering a virtuous, prayerful home life, practicing humility, offering respect and support for your husband's role, and being open to life and God's grace.

Prioritize Personal Holiness: Actively pursue your own spiritual life through prayer, Mass, and Confession, allowing Jesus to be your strength. A devout wife serves her family better when she is nourished by grace.

Respect and Support: Offer respect by trusting your husband's good intentions, speaking well of him, and encouraging his spiritual leadership.

Build a Virtuous Home: Cultivate a home environment that is peaceful, welcoming, and generous, often echoing the traits of the Proverbs 31:10-31 woman, such as being strong, wise, and kind.

Communicate and Connect: Make time to talk, play, pray together, and use affectionate actions like hugging or holding hands to reinforce your bond.

Be Open to Life: Embrace the "fruitful" aspect of Catholic marriage, staying open to children and nurturing their spiritual life.

Accept Help and Rest: Avoid burnout by practicing humility, asking for help, and relying on the support of family, friends, and community.

In Personality

(1.) Kindness. Treat everyone with respect and dignity until given a reason not to. You never know what someone else is going through in their lives.

(2.) Humility-try to understand things from other people's perspectives and don't be too afraid or too caught up in your ego to apologize or admit you're wrong, or you made a mistake or don't know something.

(3.) Polite and Courteous-Limited swearing or shouting. Good listening and speaking skills. Good manners. Includes social and table etiquette.

In appearance

(1.) Hygiene-have clean hair, clean, short nails and do skin care (moisturize) twice daily. Obviously washing once a day, washing your hair and brushing your teeth.

(2.) Have hair neatly trimmed, clean and brushed.

(3.) Dress in appropriate attire. If you want to look more polished? Wear blouses in one deep colour and trousers, or tight black yoga pants with a trench coat over the top. Go for one colour for your t shirt, one for your trousers and one for your jacket. Usually deeper colours or whites, greys and tans.

By being raised by caring parents.

That's all it takes, it's very simple, it will make you automatically decent, effortlessly, plus it works for both men and women.

If you didn't get the right parents at the lottery, well, you're among the unprivileged, sorry. Life is definitely much harder then, that's the dark side. The bright side is that you're faaaar from being alone. The dark side of the bright side is that the lack of decency of you and your peers makes the world a rather unsafe place to live in. For both the privileged and the unprivileged. At least, that's more egalitarian this way lol

Same as what makes a decent man. Care and brutal honesty. And occult knowledge.

If you have to deliberately try to be feminine then you might have chemicals in your water. ㅤ

Being a decent woman isn’t about fitting a mould, shrinking yourself, or living up to someone else’s idea of what a woman “should” be. It’s about becoming grounded, self‑aware, and emotionally intelligent. Be yourself and not what someone else thinks you should be.

Be considerate of others and of yourself. That's all. Have no partner, one partner, or multiple partners. It's all fine as long as everyone is informed.

I just want to stay updated on this thread. I'd like to know the answer myself.

If you aren't already inherently this, it's probably already a lost cause. You're either already one through upbringing and just don't realize it. Or you are not and are already a lost cause most likely.

From a man's point of view? Keep lines of communication open, no silent treatment. Treat him the way you want to be treated. Be honest, and don't be duplicitous. Tell him how you're actually feeling, and what you actually want.
