I'm a trad wife without the husband. I have a ranch, a farm, grow and prep my own food and I do it without a man in my life.

I love trade wife shit as a hobby. Make my food from scratch, always put together, BUT I got my degrees and I got MY money. I got ME.

If being a trad wife was good for women…men would never let them do it. That, my friend, is the test

You warn them. They don’t listen. They live it. They age. They understand. Then they try to warn the next generation.
And the cycle begins again.

I was groomed for this in highschool. Then my mom (an ex tradwife) was abandoned, leaving her to take care of four kids by herself with no career. Anyways, now I’m married to a feminist man and I’m working on my PHD.

The “trad values” are all the women, not the men being held to the same standard of kindness & responsibility.

did they find out that an uneven balance of power would leave you vulnerable to the person who has the power?

It’s like “I’m just gonna put all my trust in a man and see what happens.” I can tell you exactly what will happen: He will disappoint you. 100% of the time.

Kate | Politely Declined :
The part about the trad wife social media woman I never understood was, the fact they got to have an online voice and make income (often being the top earner) is the total opposite of what they were pushing.

it’s annoying that trad wives have monopolized the concept of slow living, like growing your own food, cooking from scratch etc those are basic skills that all humans should have 😭
