What do they mean with “trad” anyway. Women used to work. Even noble women worked. They learned to defend their homes, hunt and do the accounts. They didn’t just sit on their backsides and embroidered.
Embroidery is work, too
Personally, I’d prefer living alone to having a tradwife. It sounds so empty and unfulfilling for everyone involved
Preach it lady! Each can find a path in life that fits them. If you have to be pushed in a role by someone else who then tells you that is the only way for someone like you, you’re not your own person, you’re someone elses property.
Be free!
Sometimes when people are given a choice, large numbers of people do choose something that isn’t good for them. For example, look at diet and exercise. If being healthy is so awesome and natural, why is the obesity rate now so high and still increasing?
I’m not saying that’s also true about modern women’s lifestyles, but the logic of the OP isn’t universally sound.
huh? food companies put addictive sugar/fat/salt combinations in everything now. our brains didn’t evolve for this - like nobody thinks that a cup of granola + milk is like half your daily calorie intake - that’s why people are obese - not because they can’t “choose” to be healthy…
This is a gross comment. Posting “people don’t always choose what’s good for them” under a post about women arguing that the trad wife lifestyle shouldn’t be forced on them, reads as though you’re defending forcing that lifestyle onto women if it’s “good for them.”
Eta: the fact that the person I’m replying to has been active on the fediverse since my reply but chosen not to refute my point makes me think I was right about the point they were trying to make.
Pretend we’re talking about slavery and see if you’d still feel the same response is valid criticism.
They said “when people are given a choice” and you thought slavery is a good comparison??? Ok Kanye
