Sometimes I long for the life of a tradwife. Then I remember it’s a reactionary fantasy; The reality is so much darker (“anti-vaxxing, decrying contraception and woke liberal modernity”)

This chick(?) is more full of shiite than a Christmas goose.

‘Trad wife’ ... traditional wife ... the polar opposite of today’s frothing-at-the-mouth feminists. “I am woman hear me roar, I can row the boat with only one oar” ... with the predictable outcome.

IMHO the Feminazis get hung up on the term ‘submit’. They see it as subjugation not the blending of each partner’s input on how to live and plan together. Their lives lack this harmony. They see themselves dying alone among their cats and empty wine boxes.

Right. Like I said, we need to change our laws.

This person is delusional. In the entire time span of human history it is not men who defined the roles of men and women, it is women. Marriage is for women. It is a way to legally make the man responsible for any children and responsible for providing for the woman and the children. In exchange for that the woman would raise the children and maintain the home (and all that entails).

Over a hundred years ago some women decided they did not like the role they had and decided they wanted to mans role and from RIGHT TO VOTE movement we got to where we are today, modern women who were told they do not need a man discovering that the only winners in the women’s movement are men.

Men do not need women to take care of them. They can go where they want, do what they want and with the right app on their phone find willing sex partners with no strings attached.

Search “hitting the wall” on youtube and you will find thousands of women who made it to 30 discover they are no longer the cute young thing and men do not even want to hook up with them, let alone marry them. I have not looked but I doubt there are youtube posting of men in there 30s complaining about not getting married.

So women, you have won. You got what you wanted. You are not a slave to a man or children. You are free to live your life alone, and to die alone. Congratulation.

They're more likely to post videos on YouTube about hunting, fishing or other hobbies.

Funny. I imagined you saying that with the voice of Rod Serling, the narrator on The Twilight Zone. This is the dystopian future we're living in.

although I know several young men successful and in their late twenties and early thirties who want children and have found it rough going with the lack of women of any sort of good character out there.

I have been tempted to tell them them to do what the gay men do and hire it out.

Being a trad wife isn’t about allowing your hubby to knock you around, cheat on you, demand a certain number of offspring, is it. That’s a caricature that’s been put to good use by people out to destroy nuclear families.

I’m a trad wife, but it wasn’t my plan.

I’m a trad wife because when faced with the choices I had to make, being a trad wife was the best choice for me and my family.

To me that’s the essence of being a trad wife.

It’s not about where you do it, or how many kids, or who does the housework.

Leftist hags will always mock godly and submissive women. This country is in desperate need of revival, even though we don’t deserve it.

Proverbs 31. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs+31&version=ESV

10 An excellent wife who can find?
She is far more precious than jewels.
11 The heart of her husband trusts in her,
and he will have no lack of gain.
12 She does him good, and not harm,
all the days of her life.
13 She seeks wool and flax,
and works with willing hands.
14 She is like the ships of the merchant;
she brings her food from afar.
15 She rises while it is yet night
and provides food for her household
and portions for her maidens.
16 She considers a field and buys it;
with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard.
17 She dresses herself with strength
and makes her arms strong.
18 She perceives that her merchandise is profitable.
Her lamp does not go out at night.
19 She puts her hands to the distaff,
and her hands hold the spindle.
20 She opens her hand to the poor
and reaches out her hands to the needy.
21 She is not afraid of snow for her household,
for all her household are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes bed coverings for herself;
her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is known in the gates
when he sits among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them;
she delivers sashes to the merchant.
25 Strength and dignity are her clothing,
and she laughs at the time to come.
26 She opens her mouth with wisdom,
and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
27 She looks well to the ways of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children rise up and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women have done excellently,
but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands,
and let her works praise her in the gates.

And don’t forget, we trad wives can shoot well and wield a chainsaw as well.

The sad part is that by the time these masculines and feminines get done with drugs and surgeries, they are all neuter.

Over the course of my career, I have been an Executive Director, Vice President, General Manager, Editor, and Producer.

I have substantially grown every company I’ve ever worked for.

Over the last decade, I have outpaced my husband in earnings. In the last two years, my bonuses alone are on par with most people’s regular paycheck. My base pay without bonus is just under $100K.

Someone should clue this bigoted creature in on the fact that highly educated, successful career women can also be tradwives. We know that a happy husband and happy, healthy, ethical children are our legacy and we put them first.

I willingly submit to the authority of my husband and he loves me like Christ loves the church. I am an empowered female. I trusted my choice in spouse and trust him to lead.

Only miserable women or those married to weak men are afraid of being a tradwife.

The rest of us are happy.

If white Christians are a problem and she doesn’t like the way they live their lives, she’s welcome to investigate the, “tradwives” in Muslim and Hindu cultures to see how they compare.

If given a mandatory choice, she’d go Judeo-Christian any time as opposed to those two.

I would love to stay at home while my husband worked, but as it is, we need multiple incomes to survive. We’re barely scraping the bottom of the barrel, and I’m making the most money I’ve EVER made...

And it’s about $30k annually. He makes less than I do.

My wife has been fighting hard for supremacy over our 12 urchins and me (w/o ritalin, adderall or jabs).

She doesn't give a tinkers damn about "white supremacy", "ginger supremacy" (she is one), or any other sumpremacy but Jesus (He's Jewish) Supremacy.

Well observed.

"Das unfruchtbare Volk." Fits. Sadly.

"Be fruitful and multiply" is far more apt, with the replacement rate demographics screaming in our ears of consequences.

“nearly 70 percent of divorces are initiated by women.”

Maybe ‘cause they’re sick of walking on eggshells, watching temper tantrums due to low impulse control, constant denigration, being the recipient of flying objects, verbal abuse ... I could go on.

I guess some men believe wives should live like that and be happy.
