I thought it was a joke but they are real: https://cbmw.org/about/board-of-directors/

In 1987, CBMW was established primarily to help the church defend against the accommodation of secular feminism.

Of course it's real.

Christianity is a religion of dudes.

Bouncing off of this I think it's necessary to point out that it is, "The Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood." You can still bash on them for not having a single woman on the board, but in my eyes, phrasing DOES matter when it comes to something like this. The title would have you believe something different than what the organization is actually called and stands for.

The mission of The Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood is to set forth the teachings of the Bible about the complementary differences between men and women, created equally in the image of God, because these teachings are essential for obedience to Scripture and for the health of the family and the church.

I'm not sure what your point is.

These are the people who created The Danvers Statement, which is an odious screed explaining how women are meant to be married, barefoot, and pregnant. Their idea of the man's role is to be lovingly in charge of their women, and run the world.

My point is that although the subject is a disgrace, the title is misleading and spotlighting a portion of the truth instead of the whole thing. If someone is going to report, it should be the full story, not just the bad half.
