Who's we? Because if "we" is all women...then no, I'd hate that. If "we" is awfls...then it's entirely possible the benefits would outweigh the costs and it would be ignorance NOT to take it into consideration. So just democrats, lol. Well, cultee, I figure you're voting like a moron, again, but I have the sense to know it's your right to do so. Call it reparations. The DNC IS the party of slavery, after all. No different than tearing down a confederate statue, as far as you're concerned.

In the western world every woman who calls herself a tradwife chose to be one. Therefore, why does anyone have a problem with it? If you can't let a grown woman choose to pursue the life she wants, you're by definition not a feminist. Nothing, but husbands today want their wife to have a job too. If you're honest, you would probably like to see your daughters become professionals in some field. It is more likely they will become tradwives though. That's pretty much all girls want to be when they reach a certain age. My aunt wanted to be a stay-at-home wife and mother, but her husband wanted her to work. That's the only reason she got a job.

now this is my 2 cents, a woman can work and be a decent homemaker as long as everyone works as a team. wife: wakes up at 6:30, gets the kids lunches ready, makes sure they're up, makes sure they have their laptops and homework packed. when she's not working late at the office, she makes home cooked meals (no pre packages stuff) using fresh ingredients and all that. she does the dishes when she can and sweeps the kitchen. me: i get up at 7:45, i drive the kids to school as needed, i take care of the trash, i kill bugs, i replace the home filters, i coordinate the lawn people and i pick up the kids from school as needed. i also do the laundry washing (wife hates doing the laundry).
wife and me: we make sure the kids homework is done, help them study as needed for tests, talk to them about any issues they may have as teens.
son: he vacuums the house, he does the dishes when my wife cannot get to them (i hate doing dishes). daughter: she cleans up all the trashcans, she dries the clothes. using the handvac she does the edges and corners. the kids: they do their own bed sheets after i wash em. they also fold their own clothes. they keep the family room messy so they also do the cleaning there. once a month we do have a cleaning crew for one hour - they sweep and mop the kitchen floors and clean all the bathrooms. i mean team effort is really the best when both parents are working with a little outside help AS NEEDED. right?

Kind of. A lot of influencers on TikTok or Instagram like making videos about how great their tradwife lifestyle is. Except they turned making videos into their full time jobs while hiring caregivers to do the stuff you normally think of housewives doing. And then the guys that are into the whole tradwife thing tend to be far right incels who don't have anything useful to offer.If the husband is a doctor or lawyer or the couple just lives in a really low cost are it can work but most of the online stuff you see is selling a fake and sanitized version. Is this true or is this your politics peeking through?
If it's just women who like being a homemaker and caretaker, I have no issue with that at all. And fuck anyone who gives them shit for it. But if there's some kind of "submissive" belief involved, that's creepy.
It's absolutely about the whole submissive thing for a lot of them.

Yeah, but you make the point while missing the point. A football team, since you use the analogy for a team, does not field 2 quarterbacks at the same time. The person throwing the ball can't also be the one catching. It's that simple. So a man and woman get together and wonder, who should throw and who should catch? If they both agree they think they'd like doing it how it always used to be done ...I now pronounce you trad husband and wife. You can arrange you family team in any way that works for you. Trad wives enjoy the stability of knowing what they and everyone else is on the team to do...and that's trending up at the moment because people like to know they have a purpose at some point in their life. 65 year old spinsters still telling themselves they can be anything they want to be in life after not actually committing to being much of anything doesn't sound good to a lot of young hetero couples in their 20's-30's so trad marriages are a way not to become that.

Feminist fictions. And it will always be feminist propaganda. It was the hot debate topic of who James Tiptree Jr. was. Some debated on how male he was. It's sci-fi There are aliens in the story

This woman apparently says she is submissive to her husband:
That's slightly concerning.
That's the gist. Yeah that's a little....

Wife's job - stay fit, keep his stomach full, his balls empty, and his house clean. Other than that, do whatever you want professionally.
Husband's job - don't be a fat slob, don't be a drunk, don't slap her around, be faithful, keep the bank accounts and retirement funds popping, and shower her with compliments and presents as well as regular date nights

Right. Everyone pulls together. You make adjustments as needed - one parent is working overtime, one child is sick, etc. - but balance the workload as evenly and appropriately as possible. The kids learn life skills.

It's sci-fi There are aliens in the story Figures. All this shit gets in the way of men and women cooperating and applying the best of each one's individual strengths. Feminists are really fucking themselves over telling their daughters they can be queens without being princesses first...then blame innocent men when they find out they aren't being worshipped. Go ask AI to draw pictures of fish on bicycles. Leave civilization to people NOT hung up on that "what kind of man/woman does society want me to be" crap. How about someone of good character and be whatever you want to be with everything else? Do you know how many women I've met in my career who DON'T have any interest in engineering that feel they are letting women down by NOT pursuing a career in engineering? Way too many. For every great woman engineer I know there's 5 who hate it every minute but do it for "society". It's outrageous and for what? That's no way to live and no way to respect America's women.

If you can't let a grown woman choose to pursue the life she wants, you're by definition not a feminist. Sure. A woman can choose to be a tradwife. A woman can also choose to wear a burqa. Or choose to refuse to date men who make less than six figures annually. Or choose what to do with their body, especially after sex. if you respect a woman's choice in one matter, you should also respect them in others. But usually it's right-wingers who have a problem with women making the choices I outlined. I wonder why...
