Interesting.
I was perusing the list of initial signatories to count familiar names and faces, and this struck me. You will notice that the names on the list are overwhelmingly male—pastors of churches, seminary presidents and professors and the like. The very scarce number of female signatories include some odd descriptions such as:
Donna Thoennes
Adjunct Professor & Homeschool Mom, Biola University
Charlotte Akin
Homemaker, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
Joy White
Homemaker & Assistant Professor of Women's Studies, Cedarville University
Rhonda Kelley
President's Wife, Adjunct Faculty, New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary
Incidentally virtually none of the male signatories is advertising himself as "House husband" or "Homeschool dad."
*EDIT* I just counted and the result is pretty jarring: 153 initial signatories, and only
16 women.
