Should Christian women be ‘soft girls’?

‘The soft girl lifestyle has been trending on social media platforms for the last decade, but does it do a disservice to how far the world has come for gender equality in the workplace, and is it the right solution for the pressure working Christian women face?’ asks Becky Hunter Kelm.

In Sweden, women are pushing back against the drivenness of the previous global ’boss-bitch’ era by slowing down or even quitting work altogether.

Vilma Larsson, 25, told the BBC she quit her multiple jobs to stay at home and is much happier for it. Supported financially by her boyfriend, she lives at a slower pace, enjoying her days cooking, exercising, going out for coffee, and spending the winter in warmer climates abroad. She says: ‘“My life is softer. I am not struggling. I am not very stressed.’
