I'm pretty sure actual traditional wives did not record a staged and idealized version of their toils to post content for engagement and sponsorships.
The more traditional wives I know just do it that way because that's what makes sense in their particular family circumstances, often with no political framing at all. When the entire household needs care all day every day, there's no time to make a show of it.
People doing it because it's trendy with influencers are missing the deeper point, and the influencers themselves are LARPing at best.
- ryandrake 2y agoExactly. There are actual people's wives out there with varying levels of "traditional-ness" just living their lives as homemakers, stay-at-home moms, having kids, going to church, and so on with no social media or political angle; and then there are the alt-right political-performative TradWives™ LARPing on social media. They're two totally different groups.
