"Girls Gone Bible": Spicy Christian podcast sells young women on MAGA. Will scandal hurt or help?
April 4, 2025
"Halili and Reitsma look nothing like stereotypical church ladies, to put it mildly. They look like sexy young actresses on the outer fringes of Hollywood, which is what they are: According to IMDB, their movie roles include the horror movie victim in 'Spin the Bottle' and the 'slutty girl' in 'Rock of Ages.' This incongruity between cosmopolitan appearance and fundamentalist message is central to their popularity.
"Whether or not this is entirely strategic, 'Girls Gone Bible' and other female-centric, Christian-themed podcasts can be understood as parallel to the better-known '#manfluencer' content of Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson and others. Although their content manifests first and foremost as lifestyle advice on dating, working out and fashion, for example, those influencers are perceived as driving younger men into the #misogynistic far right and the #MAGA movement, and may have been a decisive factor in the 2024 presidential election. Halili and Reitsma are offering a sense of community and religious fellowship to younger women who want to be seen as feminine, fashionable and sexually attractive. But the political and cultural ramifications of their messaging, which includes urging young women to accept a 'submissive' role in marriage and overt support for the Trump agenda, are impossible to miss."
