"I also have seen anyone outraged by this. I’ve seen people claim ‘people are outraged!’ But never actually heard from the outraged people " I'm at the extreme-ish end of feminism and my response is, if it makes her happy more power to her. | |||

"Lots of views on Holly Willoughby interview with a tradwife happy to stay at home to look after the kids and get a family allowance. I respect her choice although many vocal on this one" Absolutely, each to their own. What does ring alarm bells is her saying a wife's role is to submit to her husband. Now I am sexually submissive to my husband, so that's not what concerns me. I'm concerned about labelling financial and domestic submission as traditional values. Many women have been trapped in unhappy or abusive relationships this way, and continue to be. Describing this as "traditional" puts a rosy glow on something which can deprive women of their freedom.

"I chose to stay at home and look after my children and the house. I was very happy and lucky that my husband earned enough to enable me to do this. He always had freshly ironed shirts and a home cooked meal. I felt that was my job. " very lucky man x | |||

"I'm sure more women would stay at home if they could survive on one wage. " Yes. I know plenty of people with children who would prefer to work less or for one partner to stay home, but they can't afford it. Mrs TMN x | |||

"A lot of tradwives on Twitter usually start talking about “racial purity” and other such shit..." What is racial purity ? Never heard the term. Is it people who are against dating/marrying those from other races etc? | |||

"A lot of tradwives on Twitter usually start talking about “racial purity” and other such shit... What is racial purity ? Never heard the term. Is it people who are against dating/marrying those from other races etc?" Yes pretty much. Trad wife has been used by some as a cover to slip in some nasty, bigoted agendas. | |||

"A lot of tradwives on Twitter usually start talking about “racial purity” and other such shit... What? I just thought it was a new term for a housewife, is there something I'm missing? " Well, trad wives first started to rise to prominence on Twitter and a lot of them were linked to extreme right wing movements. They use the fairly cosy and harmless-sounding yearning for a traditional life...like it was in the 30s and 40s...you know....when there were less of “them”. Now they’re trying to normalise it as it becomes more well known but its roots still lie in the extreme right wing and it’s a subtle way to influence people. It’s a similar technique to the white power/OK hand gesture. A while ago right wingers said “let’s use the ‘ok’ hand gesture as a symbol of white power and if anyone asks we’ll act innocent and just say it means ok”. So now racists and extreme right wingers can go around openly making the symbol and then saying “what? Are you crazy? It just means ok”. | |||
