Girl Defined started out as a Christian blog between two sheltered sisters named Bethany and Kristen, and slowly devolved into a way for the sisters to promote merchandise, courses and conferences. Eventually, Bethany began to produce even more courses for her audience… even asking them to buy her gifts off her baby registry. Kristen would post about being unsatisfied in her own life as well. The sisters were spiraling downwards, but the question this video truly tries to answer through it all is- is the sisters’ greed and unhappiness a consequence of their own doing, or the making of a matriarchal figure lurking in the shadows, controlling the girl defined platform, as a sibling of their family has allegedly claimed?

    As always, please be respectful of everyone involved in the comments even if you may disagree with their views. The allegations made in this video are all alleged, and I am just reporting on what has been made publicly available. Please be respectful and understanding to the victims and family members as they have boldly shared their trauma online.

      Can we get a flash warning that’s longer than 2-3 seconds? I think it’d also really help if you said it aloud, in case people miss the text

      Rachel Oates videos introduced me to Girl Defined. I feel like this was more about Brittany’s own happiness of marriage instead of Brittany and David working together in the marriage. That’s how i see it

      Sorry, but no. I am not going to show any respect to extreme right wing fundies who idolize white nationalists, and train their daughters to give up on having any aspirations or identity of their own in order to become property of men.

    Has to be a form of child abused to prevent your child from going to college on a full ride scholarship doing something they love. All because of “gods plan”

    32:09 but they have died hair and wear a shit ton of makeup to get on camera and post on social media – so are they seductively telling people that being seductive is a sin?

    Yes! I’m also a huge Rachel Oats fan and because she spoke so highly of you, I’m here now and I’m subscribed. Oh! Swoop speaks very highly of you as well.
    Great video presentation by the way, love it ❤😊

    21:50 In 2011, they were in their early 20s. Legally adults but still functionally children if mama and dada were calling the shots. 🤦‍♀️ That is NOT healthy. It’s not virtuous, either. If you’re 24 and still need an adult to tell you what your values are, you’ve been taught rank obedience, not morality or values.
