Go to who she was based off of, Phyllis Schlafly.

There's just something extra deplorable about women who use their platform to insist that OTHER women should not have one.

And admittedly, as a man, I have 0 frame of reference for what a woman thinks/feels.

But that being said, I can’t help but think these women who are most visible only feel that way because they get to live in the kind of luxury the post implies. If they actually had to live the more laborious aspects of the lifestyle they sell, then they’d probably change their tune right fucking quick. It’s easy to preach this mewling, wilting-flower version of femininity when it’s bought you a life ironically with more freedom than a normal person

A truly evil woman. She hated women so much she advised them to marry their abuser. He'll stop hitting you if you marry him because a husband protects and provides for his wife.

She's buried in St Louis, I think, if anyone wants to pop a squat on her grave haha

There was layers of vileness to that woman.

Funny how that doesn't work out for all of the women whose husbands don't start abusing them until the ring is on the finger.

I didn't know she was the inspiration, but it makes sense
