They've never been that common, otherwise Prov 31:10 wouldn't say "Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies."

If you found one, you are one lucky man, and better do right by her.

That is a very pessimistic attitude toward women. When I was a child there were plenty of godly women. Then the 1960’s came along and everything went downhill rapidly. With the sexual revolution and the drug culture, women were ridculed if they were virgins. Still are. I feel very sorry for parents of daughters today.

We have few prominent examples of women of virtue, and when they are around, the liberal media kills them with slander. The image of Sarah Palin comes to mind. Michele Bachmann too.

By-the-way, we also need virtuous young men. I have several young grand-nephews who appear to me to be growing up with sensible ideas and respect for women. I know so, because they are very cautious when looking for a girl friend. They do not want a promiscuous young woman as they know she would be a disastrous wife.

However, I feel we do have a strong cadre of virtuous young people who are coming to adulthood and are fighting against this rotten culture. If it was not so, we would not be seeing the evangelical and the conservative wing of the Catholic church surging [while the main stream leftist churches seem to be dying on the vine].

My husband has told me often that I am. This past summer, when I had heart surgery to remove a myxoma tumor, he took care of me. For weeks he had to cook and clean, and, he took care of our small children as well.

He truly took to heart the “in sickness and in health” part of his marriage vows.

If a woman wants a man who will stand up when the going gets tough, she better be a stand up girl herself.
