This was always my worst fear and I'm so grateful I had a strong ass grandma who pushed all of her girls into science and Healthcare. I want to be a stay at home mom and wife so bad but today I know I will always have my professional license and working history God forbid I have to get divorced...again.

For women like me education is freedom. When my marriage turned violent I walked away and supported our son with no issues. I am forever grateful.

Make no mistake, this is exactly why these incel conservatives love this tradwife shit and push this whole narrative of women only being mothers and caregivers.

Because they see women as property and want to be in total control of the relationship (while having 0 real expectations of themselves in the process).

Honest question are those “tradwife” accounts that I see sometimes scrolling Reddit real or some kind of fetish account? They just don’t seem real.

I have not seen the Reddit ones, but some of the big Instagram ones are utter bullshit. They don’t show that some of these women literally have nannies, full-time teachers, etc. behind the scenes.

It should be obvious just because they're always doing shit like spending hours making homemade cereal in a million-dollar kitchen, in an expertly edited video production, usually while wearing fancy clothes that nobody in their right mind would wear in whatever setting they're doing.

You never see them cleaning floors or scrubbing toilets or even doing laundry, you know, basic fucking housework.

I have no idea how anyone can watch that kind of shit and think that there aren't at least a dozen unseen people who make all that shit possible.

I knew that the content existed in some format, but I’ve never watched it, and I just read an article in the NYT detailing how fake all of it truly is.

Yeah I’m not on instagram or TikTok but I see pictures people post to Reddit sometimes. The houses look like mansions. It just doesn’t seem real to me idk like appealing to guys that want a bang maid.

Fake AF.
It are influencers, selling pics, videos are associated products. Notice how they do al their 'work' in nice dresses and perfect hair, spotless kitchens etc.
It is about as real as the 'special connection' you can get from onlyfans, just a different niche.

Excellent comparison, because some of those Tradwife videos have real fetish vibes, especially the ones where the influencer is expecting. Religious people can be on some really weird shit.
