There's a Growing 'Trad-Wife' Trend That's
Making Feminists Furious

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 3/14/2023 10:14:16 PM

It started with young women half-joking about being angry with the feminist movement for “liberating” women so they now have to get up to go to work to pay their own bills. The BBC made a skit off the back of this complaint that, while meant as a joke, ended up being a perfect way that described how many women felt about their “liberation.” They say the left can’t meme, but this skit proves they can do so ironically. [Video] Then a trend on TikTok began emerging that gained traction very quickly. It was women simply posting their daily lives as traditional housewives.

What AREN'T the fem-nazis furious about these days?? My mom wasxa traditional housewife until her chicks all started high school. Then she worked part time. As far as I know,, she didn't feel deprived of her choices at all.

I've had one of those for over 40 years. They are great until the kids are gone.

I was very lucky that my husband was a very successful engineer. So when I got pregnant the first time, until my kids were all in high school, I was able to stay home and be a homemaker and mommy. I loved every second of it!!!

My observation of this is that this is another TikTok fad that has nothing to do with reality or “a movement”.

#3 - Dear friend, don't be so quick to dismiss this behavioral shift just because of it may have hit Tik Tok. I believe there is a natural swing of the pendulum happening with the young women of today. They are the granddaughters of the first wave feminists, and are longing for the world their grandmothers so thoughtlessly threw away. The Nags from NOW (thank you, Rush) promised empowerment to women who entered the workforce. They would have time to fulfill themselves, extra money, and an exciting life. Today's young women are the third generation to experience working mothers, day-care from birth, widespread divorce and "blended" families. They have lived first-hand the consequences resulting from the false promises of the "Women's Movement". They saw their grandmothers and mothers become slaves to their day books and smart phones, the extra money they earned had to spent on a professional wardrobe and day care, and the exciting life was picking up take-out for dinner. While they may have been empowered in the board room, it often cost them their marriage. Compared to this experience, the images from old movies and TV shows of the traditional marriage between a bread winner and a homemaker have to very appealing. Despite the Leftist trope of the arrangement being a male dominated trap, the reality is far different in a healthy marriage between a mature man and woman. The roles of breadwinner and homemaker are complimentary and unite the couple in the commonality of a life truly shared. Their relationship builds the foundation that bring forth healthy children, forming families that build our country. We should welcome this trend and nourish it. Tik Tok may be the Devil's playground, but that doesn't mean we can't rumble. St. Michael the Archangel defend us in battle...

Love it. This shoots the narrative "you can have it all" right in the ass. My wife was a stay at home mom for over 20 years, did the bulk of homeschooling, while I was working 2 jobs. Our kids are successful, independent thinking, living adults. The most important job is a mom at home, caring for the kids. Maybe this will be the start of the traditional, man & woman two parent family.

The secondary effect of "working women/mothers" was to increase the costs of homes, making it nearly impossible to buy a home on one salary. Therefore, off we went to work. I find it ironic that NOW has gone totally silent on issues like trans-men in sports and genital mutilation. NOW was just another organization in the long list of those designed to destroy the nuclear family. It had nothing to do with "women's empowerment"!

Have you noticed how much the Feds take out of your paycheck? In the 'good old days' during the baby boom, the Feds let you keep your paycheck. Now with inflation and taxation, the pay check doesn't go very far and we all need two incomes. Blame the government with their taxes and inflation. All government creations.

The problem with being a traditional wife these days is that attitudes and divorce laws were changed in the 60s and made divorce much less painful. A 40-year old housewife today can be replaced by her husband's 25-year old hard-body coworker. When that happens, the housewife ends up having to start a career at 40+ years old. It happened to several of my mom's friends when I was growing up and made me decide that whatever the cost, I would have a career and my own money.

Two nieces don't work, take care of the kids and home, hubby works and pays the bills. One is a USMC officer the other is a USArmy officer. Another niece has a few months old now, is a USAF officer. I hope she decides to quit and stay home in the next few months. She'll be a great mom.

From the article: "At the end of the day, the choice to be a traditional housewife or a working woman is up to the individual." That false dichotomy makes my blood boil. A traditional housewife and mother works harder and works more hours than any employed person.

Politics has a way of driving people into delusion. That’s because even laughably bad candidates can still find themselves in the limelight and aboard private jets, at least for a time. Kamala Harris’ disastrous presidential run is proof enough of that, though she managed to parlay her epic failure and intersectionality into a vice presidential position because failing up is a Democratic Party gold standard. But while Harris at least had enough initial support to justify a run, there are others who deserve to be heckled for even entertaining the idea of running for president. Chris Christie is one of those people.

Harry Potter author JK Rowling is likely one of the most hated individuals by the transgender activist movement but she’s consistently been the one famous person they couldn’t cancel. In fact, the last time they tried to punish her success, the Harry Potter world-based game “Hogwarts Legacy” became one of the best-selling video games of all time and immediately triggered the creation of a sequel and live-action television show.

Some electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers are scrapping the AM radio from their cars, claiming safety concerns. Although conservative talk radio dominates AM radio ratings, it is also considered a critical safety tool, as it is one of the primary ways that federal, state, and local officials communicate with the public during natural disasters and other emergencies. Automakers such as Ford and Tesla have ditched the AM radio from their newer EV models, arguing that the motors on EVs interfere with AM frequencies, creating buzzing and signal fading, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal.

Silicon Valley Bank’s collapse is almost entirely self-imposed, but they’re getting an almost-bailout anyway. President Biden has said the taxpayers will bear the brunt of guaranteeing all SVB deposits. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) already insures deposits up to $250,000, a pittance compared to the collapse of this billion-dollar bank. Many in the financial punditry class believe the move is necessary to prevent a chain reaction that could take down other big investment banks. There is plenty to be debated about the merits of that action,

As RedState’s Bonchie reported last week, Ron DeSantis expertly trolled media outlets by actually showing videos of books found in Florida public school libraries that contained sex and pornography. The news stations had to quickly kill their live feeds because you can’t show that stuff on television. The obvious question: if it’s too saucy for an adult audience—why is it in our kids’ schools? Tuesday afternoon, the Florida Governor’s response team—the Twitter account @DeSantisWarRoom—was it at again, taking footage of President Joe Biden lambasting the state for its policies on transgender surgeries and putting in a split-screen with videos showing some of the more benign steps of “gender-affirming surgery.”

San Francisco residents lined up at a city board meeting last night to share their full-throated support of a wide-eyed reparations plan that would award every black resident $5million, wipe their personal debt, guarantee $97,000 incomes for 250 years and $1 homes. But no one at the emotional meeting - where residents burst into song and begged to be made 'whole' - asked how the struggling, debt-addled city might pay for it. Reparations are being considered in various Democratic cities around America as a means of providing compensation to the descendants of enslaved African-Americans.

After months of near-silence and innuendo, Florida Gov. and GOP presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis decided to speak about Ukraine, removing all doubt about his position. While his statement on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show makes a handful of valid points, it is ridden with a fundamental misunderstanding of the war and US geopolitical interests. First, the good. DeSantis is correct to criticize the Biden administration’s lack of clear objectives in its support for “as long as it takes,” which is a recipe for a long and intractable conflict — which Americans would be right to reject.

It was in keeping with similar measures approved in recent years in cities around the country to defund the police, reduce cash bail, and eliminate penalties for minor crimes like shoplifting and drug possession. Congress rightly overruled the measure under the city's home rule charter, but it was a sign of what's to come from D.C. city government.

Both Austin and Milley committed to continue flying and operating wherever international law allows, calling upon Russian leaders to operate their military aircraft in a safe, professional, and nonaggressive manner. The incident Tuesday involved a Russian Su-27 aircraft striking the propeller of a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone, which U.S. officials said was on a routine mission in international airspace when two Russian jets attempted to intercept it.

This was despite the fact that, as they admitted, a Hoover Institution estimate found it could cost San Franciscans of other races (and presumably those in poverty) $600,000 in new taxes.

And wartime, he noted at the end of the segment, leads to extraordinary suppression of political dissent.
