In this special episode, Patti and Sarah talk about the man-made rules and strict roles enforced by the church and school, including women only wearing dresses or culottes, boys not being allowed to have hair touching their collars, no going to movie theaters or listening to secular music, and more. They also discuss the culture of male dominance and how it affected decision-making in the home.
After Patti wrote two articles about her experience, several women came forward to share their own stories of physical and sexual abuse. Sarah was one of them.
