“ if the ultimate culture-war figure women love to hate is the tradwife, her second cousin might be the clean-eating health nut who goes to Burning Man and votes for Republicans.”

Huh… I had no idea I was possibly the most disliked. Oh well… back to living my life.

I have been married to a tradwife for 46 years. We are Christians who go to church every week, often twice on Sunday . I find her lovely after all these years. We married young and had children quickly in succession. We will live together as husband and wife until we die and afterwards live as brother and sister forever in eternity with King Jesus. My wife only worked for six months after she had our first child at my insistence. She preferred staying home and raising her children rather than have a dull job and little time for her family. Now they are all grown and on their own. We have several grandchildren. They all love and bless their Mom and their Nana. She has many hobbies and is very active in our church. We travel a lot including overseas. We have health issues now and take care of each other.

I have no understanding of why any man would wish to marry a feminist. They often seem bitter, and lonely, without joy. There is nothing better for a real man than a tradwife.

And vice-versa! A trad wife should have a good man! We all deserve a dedicated and engaged partner.

You and she sound blessed.

Ok, we don’t use any social media apps. They seem toxic to us.

“Yesteryear is “parasocial hate porn for millennial feminists,” Kat writes, a book aimed at “women who can’t stand tradwives, and also can’t stop watching their every move.” My reaction to this intro is to not read the piece, and be further convinced that the online world is almost completely fake and making us not only angry but stupid. Yes, and yet here I am. I guess it’s human nature making me watch a train wreck.

Not just the internet is making everyone angry and stupid, but Ai too. More and more students are using Ai for their entire course work and getting amazing grades (see articles on the collegiate grading boom). But while grades are up, comprehension of the material is way down. Imagine that, you use a computer to generate your homework than you don’t understand the lesson.

Honest question... how did they come for ¨girl bosses¨?

"Specifically, what happens when you trap a small group of them together in an extreme environment with nowhere to go?"

I think it was yesterday that I saw BlueSky described just like that. They also likened it to a daily prison riot.

What is BlueSky?

It is like Twitter/X for Democrats. I believed it formed or became popular when Elon Musk bought Twitter.

Why don’t we ever talk about tradhusbands? My wife of 44 years, a graduate of the Kennedy School at Harvard University, and a expert in public policy and infrastructure finance, is still going strong in her late seventies, providing sage advice to clients, co-managing a boutique consultancy, and being a great Mom to 3 daughters and an amazing grandmother to 7 assorted grandkids, 3 of whom are in college. And in many ways, she is still a traditional mom (although I am the better cook…) Yes, friends, being a tradwife/tradmom, or being a contributor to the greater society, is not a bianary choice. Applause to those millions of moms and wives who do it all, with grace, empathy, care and a giving heart and soul.

You sound like a confident and collaborative husband who helped foster a great life

I don’t understand why some people are so upset about how someone else chooses to live. What does it matter to you if your neighbor chooses to stay home with her kids and cook fancy meals, with or without seed oils? It’s really none of your business. Live and let live.

I suspect fewer care than one would think from reading this Front Page.

You got it. Its called freedom ( or is it fweedom). Life liberty pursuit of happiness. No input from others needed or wanted

Years ago, when I was 'young' and fighting the good fight for women's' equal rights, "Feminism" stood for fighting to be EQUAL, and for women to have "CHOICE". Choice to stay at home, choice to go to school, choice to participate in the workforce, choice to live a life we CHOOSE.

Somehow, that got hijacked.

Read “The End of Woman.” Your leaders never, ever intended for there to be a choice.

Thank you for sharing.

ChatGPT summary

“ The book argues that modern feminism, especially its more radical forms since the 1960s, has not ultimately benefited women but instead has undermined traditional ideas of femininity, motherhood, family, and even the definition of “woman” itself. ”

'My Leaders'

That's the biggest joke I've heard for a while. I want absolutely nothing to do with democrats.

It's not the Republicans trying to eliminate Title IX.

It's not the Republicans trying to shove men into *every* area of womens lives.
