https://nypost.com/2026/07/07/lifestyle/ex-tradwives-over-35-deatil-dark-side-of-the-viral-lifestyle/You guys were trying to trick women into terrible lives of manipulation and regret this whole time?
>>539044399How hard could the trad life be for a woman? Machines do all the hard work. Literally all you have to do to be a good trad wife is load the washer and stay off social media.
>>539044399I never had this particular fetish
>>539044399"Trad" is a costume. Pretending to be a caricature of some 1950s housewife. The women who participate don't magically lose their feminism though, it's all about attaining a lower degree of responsibility and living a pampered life for them. Actual "traditional" women would defer 100% to the leadership of their husbands. Their duties include having babies, raising them, and doing whatever kind of work he requires of her. It is a life centered around duties and responsibilities, not a self centered pampered materialistic perpetual domestic vacation. 99% of women who depict themselves as "trad", and especially any women who put on that costume and then decide to bitch and complain when they still don't get what they want are and were always just run of the mill mind virus feminists at heart.
>>539044510Because you'd be married to a man that really hates women to the point of seeking out some caricature.
I feel like theres a specific school of "faggot new york" style photography thats being taught somewhere. They've taken carbon copies of this photo for articles for the past 20 years. NY post, NY times, whatever. Always this gay pensive face and looking up slightly
>>539044510If she's actually engaged in being a mother and running the household then there are plenty of responsibilities, it's far easier than it was in the past but it's not a vacation or party. The women who go into it thinking it will be are retards. In the article there isn't and specific failing of their husbands mentioned, aside from one women vaguely insinuating she thought her husband was cheating on her which of you think that can happen in traditional relationships I've got bad news for her about non traditional ones. The other women just cite that "I wanted to have XYZ" or "I wanted to be XYZ" or implying that motherhood wasn't reaching their full potential, or longing for "more" but not knowing what. There's one retarded woman in there who says she left her husband because after being a wife and mother and turning 36 she thought "is this all it is?" What, you mean raising the next generation of your family and then having grandchildren? Yeah oh man what a fucking burden, all that time could have been spent doing worthless office work for Mr. Shekelberg! That one woman pretended she was oppressed by her controlling husband, yet she talked him into letting her get a job and he said sure. Then she used that as a springboard to stash away money and leave him. Why? So-called self fulfillment. These women were never traditional, only "trad". They thought the wife and mother costume would be life on easy mode and that's not actually true so they defaulted to "I wanna be muh empowered woman!" only now they're also spinning this yarn as if all marriages where the man leads and the woman follows is some depressing nightmare.
IT'S A MIRACLE
>>539045478>If she's actually engaged in being a mother and running the household then there are plenty of responsibilitiesLike what?
>>539044510Thats too much work these days
>>539045576>cooking>cleaning the house>making sure the kids aren't doing stupid shit>helping them with homework>feeding animals>maybe get groceries if the husband can't
>be a slave for 15 years>left destitute when he finds a younger woman Yeh nah I wouldn’t do that, either
>>539045680That leaves like 23 more hours in the day.
>>539045680So being a lifeguard and putting food on a plate? lol
>>539045816As oppossed to being a whore for 5.99 a month and working in jewish daycare?
>>539045576My wife takes care of our 4 kids, which since one of them is still a baby is quite a lot of time spent changing diapers, feeding, and making sure he doesn't find a way to kill himself. She feeds them all their meals, does all the dishes and laundry, homeschools the older three, does all the grocery shopping, takes care of our chickens and vegetable garden, and until our oldest son is big enough to make a difference, she's my main assistant for all other housework and yardwork which includes holding shit while I work on the cars, helping me paint about 4 rooms last week, weeding the mulch beds and garden, gathering up yard debris and burning it on the burn pile. Eventually she'll be relieved of those duties, but she has plenty to do all day. Not saying it's extremely difficult, but it isn't just wearing a nice dress and baking sourdough bread once in a while. The greatest trait about her is that though I value her opinion on plenty of things, on any topic of I told her to just shut the fuck up and do what I say, she'll do exactly that without a fight. The women in the article thought they signed up for a picnic and it was a convenient way to avoid work and responsibilities. Not the case. Thinking they'll find greater fulfillment being muh independent women and working some 9-5 is peak feminist retardation.
>>539044399The trad stuff being pedaled IS a sham, but it's men getting deceived into a bad deal. It's all about men having all these traditional expectations while women can do whatever they want and the gynocracy is still in place.
>>539044399The dark side, lol... tell that to the ukie men being drafted against their wishes. Tell that to all the men in the west who could potentially be drafted against their wishes in the near future..
Getting married is retarded. Breeding a woman who possesses zero ability to care for your kids if you die is even more retarded.
>>539046006An automated chicken feeder, a table in your garage, and a spritz of weed killer twice a year.
>>539044957>giving women an absurdly easy life means you hate themvery well. off to the wage cage they go
>>539045063They think it makes them look dignified and deep
>>539044399>tradwives-over-35why is being old important to the story?
>>539045687so are you a seething hag or a troon?
>>539045063it's not taught it is copied. so many people in the Creative field are not creative.
>>539046409 Collecting the eggs of 20 chickens and washing the chicken shit off of them isn't something we can feasibly automate, a small spritz of weed killer on the acreage we have isn't either. It's not simple small tasks, not some gargantuan undertaking either. It's normal work and responsibilities that a person could be expected to perform without complaint, and my wife gladly does all of that shit because it's much better than working some stupid pointless 9-5 job for Mr. Jewstein. The point is even if you think it's extremely easy bullshit, these women still saw it as a nightmarish existence of unreasonable responsibility and broke up their families so they could chase some feminist nonsense about independence, this proving that most women are essentially retarded children.
>>539045478>Then she used that as a springboard to stash away money and leave him. Why? So-called self fulfillment.These women end up crying on Tiktok later when they realize their life is very close to how most men live: waging, coming home, doing chores, sleeping, and maybe getting some fun time on weekends.Most will never have a long-term relationship again, much less remarry.
>>539044510>woman seeks out tradlife>ends up with a degenerate abuser who thinks they don't need to lift a single finger while at home and uses his "wife" as a house maid he forces sex on. Most tradwives actually have husband's that coexist in the relationship and household, they co parent work lots of OT, do dishes, maintain the house, etc...
>>539046889Would you be a tradwife if you were female?
>>539046917Ok so hovering over the children, putting food in their bowls and the dog bowl too, holding something for you while you work in the garage, and collecting eggs. Wow! That does sound like "plenty of responsibilities!"
>>539047017But think about how many Netflix originals will go unwatched
>>539047094>degenerate abuserwhat's with all the shills here?
Reminder, there is no such thing as a traditional marriage in the USA or any Western nation currently, nor is there such a thing as a tradwife. You may have a discussion with a woman where she says that she wants to be a tradwife and consents to it, but she does not have the authority to offer it.A traditional marriage is one that's not subject to no-fault divorce. Any woman can say that she wants a traditional marriage, but if she changes her mind later, she'll be able to go get a no-fault divorce anyway. Because she doesn't have the authority to override the legislators and the courts and have a marriage contract with you that doesn't allow her to change her mind. She can agree to LARP really really hard, but ultimately it is just a LARP and it lasts as long as she can hack it.If you sign the marriage certificate you are in a modern marriage, no matter what words were said around it.
>>539047188Yes, I would.My ex wanted to be a stay-at-home wife but refused to do basic chores and upkeep of our small apartment even though she basically lived for free.Chores take a few hours per week. She was a fool, so I dumped her.
>>539047342Then you’re 38, walled, divorced, no education, no experience, no alimony, with majority custody of three kids.
when women say they want the trad wife life what they mean is >I don't want to work>I just want to stay home and flick the bean all day>husband takes care of everything else and provides money >housework and cooking are slavery 90% of trad wife women are just neets
>>539047487>38She's 34>walledYep.>no educationShe refused to get an education anyway, despite me offering to pay for it. I wasted 5 years with that idiot.>no experienceShe has worked as a barista her entire adult life.>no alimony, with majority custody of three kids.She didn't want kids.
>>539047487Stop trying to reason with a provider male.
>>539047819>90% of trad wife women are just neetsThis is true, and they still manage to fuck it up.Dishes, laundry, and sex in exchange for NEET life is an incredible deal.They're not career women anyway, so it's not like they lose anything. All they have to do is keep up with basic chores, not be argumentative, and not refuse sex. They don't even have to avoid getting fat (within reason)
>>539047905I'm not a provider male. I was trying to do her dumb ass a favor. It's more than she deserved.
>>539044399> You guys were trying to trick women into terrible lives of manipulation and regret this whole time?
>>539047967>>539047849You’re bitter, but you chose her and stayed for years.Also, your response reminds me of asking black people how they would feel if they hadn’t eaten breakfast.
>>539047487>No alimonyNigger you ain't fooling anyone.
This a Kike demoralization thread
>>539044399The world as presented by the internet and social media mostly comes from people who take the notion to post themselves on the internet (obviously). Youtubers, ecelebs etc. Which is to say that you are getting a panorama of the world consisting of almost exclusively mentally ill people lol. No different than the entertainment industry in general.
>>539044399All the attractive women who would make great wives and mothers are taken in high school and college the latest. Whatever remains is taken shortly after they enter the workforce. There exist very few good looking women that are single and have a good heart, are modest, raised in a decent family, soft spoken and pretty. The window of opportunity when they are single is very very narrow. These are the 2% of women, the highest stock of females this wonderful creation can offer. If you don't frequent their circles or the events they attend you have no chance of meeting them. Women also don't go anywhere alone, so whatever hobbies women have or events they attend it is done with their husband or boyfriend and if they are single with their groups of friends.tldr; there simply aren't enough single good looking young white women to go around for everybody, they are rare and exist mostly in very niche places where men without social circles (loners) can't get in to
>media trying to stop women from being faithful and loyal mothers and wiveswhat else is new, jew?
>>539047288If someone is actively looking for a tradwife, I'd consider it a red flag.
>>539048131>You’re bitter, but you chose her and stayed for years.I didn't know she was lying. The stay-at-home-wife thing was a last ditch effort to secure her parasitic lifestyle.>Also, your response reminds me of asking black people how they would feel if they hadn’t eaten breakfast.I'm comparing generalities with my specific experience. Most of these "trad" women don't have much going for them, so it's moot to speculate on their supposed careers. Looks can only take you so far. If they were not able to attract rich men, they'd be low-tier wagies.Most of them don't really have domestic skills except cleaning and basic bitch cooking. Want to see real trad wives? Go look in rural Italy.
>>539047094So does she also help bring home half the income or?
>>539048253The problem is that these posts create social contagion. Real people make real life-altering decisions based on the actions of mentally ill "influencers" and outright grifters.
>>539048371>I'd consider it a red flagSure, you and the rest of the feminist retards. That's why you're posting here instead of happily spending time with your family.
>>539048458Looking at Italy's population density I don't even know how much of Italy is even "rural" honestly kek.
>>539047196I think you missed the part where I said these were not extreme difficulties, women are essentially children, and the women complaining about these meager responsibilities are brain rotted feminists.
>>539045478Like most things people chase in life they are sold on an image of what it will be like. One which reality has no hope of coming up against
>>539048508I know. It is even worse than that though- back when it was radio or word of mouth or a newspaper- even midwits knew they were getting 'bits and peices' of the world. Social media and television seems much more complete a picture to the midwit. It can be much more deceptive in that way. It has the capacity to actually build "reality" for some people. And when it clashes with actual reality in people's real lives it has already built in explanations and copes for why it is conflicting.
>>539047819>>539047934>90% are just neetsThis lines up with what Grok says: Approximately 10-15% of US families own more than one acre of land. Anything less probably requires no real effort at all. Implying anything outside of that percentage is just a larp.
>>539044399>The tradlife shamThe sham is in giving women equal voice in the affairs of mankind.They exist to help, not hinder.
>>539044399>abandoned her dreams of pursuing a career in artShe's even more useless than I assumed and that's saying a lot.
>>539048948Consider this: if you take people who own large properties today- let's say 500 acres or more in the US.. I would wager that % of the population would be roughly comparable to the number of manorial lords or even earls or barons and their immediate families in medieval England. Maybe like a quarter of a percent or something.
>>539048560I'm working to provide for my family you gigantic faggot.
>>539050214>workingdidn't know shitting up 4chan paid that much. wow.
>>539048821Yes. They did not want the reality of a more traditional Christian marriage because that comes with duties and responsibilities for the wife. The women in this article were sold a caricature of some 1950s housewife, envisioned an easy low responsibility life where they just had to have some babies and then be pampered for the rest of their lives and reality didn't align so they reverted to their programming which in modern society is claiming victim status and being muh strong independent feminist woman who don't need no man.
>>539050273>The gender war is the new identity politics for Gen Z. >They want you demoralized.>Hating yourself and your own women.that's odd, because women's behavior made me this way, and being able to vent about it helps me be less demoralized
>>539050458Seems like all roads lead to women having no responsibility and extracting resources, and the label du jour is just a fugazi
>>539050532Essentially, the "trad wife" meme women are very obvious about it. Even many good wives out there by most metrics, if you massively falter as a husband and they think they can do better elsewhere they'll ruthlessly make that choice.
>>539048508People still don't really have the mindset that what we see online or read is separate or should be treated differently from what you'd see from your tribemates if you lived in a tribe.>>539048883>even midwits knew they were getting 'bits and peices' of the world.I don't know about that. I think people in the 1920s probably read the newspaper and thought>Oh, so that's how it is.like they actually knew what was happening.I do think you're very right that newspapers were a lot less engaging, so there probably was more skepticism just due to increased emotional distance.
>>539050414What else am I gonna do while I wait for this to get to 3000?
>>539051827seems like electrical resistive heating would be better
>>539044399>Templeton, who married at age 26, eagerly abandoned her dreams of pursuing a career in artJust seems like a worthless nutjob, shame on the guy who married her and reproduced with her.
>>539048195No, you're just someone with a wierd sexual fetish
>>539052756Do you know how many amps you'd need to heat that thing to 300 degrees?
>>539053121Why would you need to abandon a career in art because you're a tradwife? That's honestly the preferred setup for an artist, somebody else works to pay the bills while you fit in your art where you can.
>>539047337Most accurate post here so far. People can LARP all they want, it doesn't change the fact that the legal framework for an actually traditional marriage has been abolished. There is literally no way to have a traditional marriage in 21st century America.
>>539045687In a good orderly society, that would not be allowed.
>>539045534Do Anglicans really?
>>539053889Common law marriage still exists in some states. Frankly, the whole institutionalized “civil” marriage with legal restrictions on divorce is a more contemporary phenomenon than common law marriage. The ultimate tradwife is a girlfriend you call your wife and cohabitate and have children with.
>>539044399I saw that article before.The dumb cunt divorced her husband because she wanted "independence".And now that she has independence, she's bitching about the fact that being independent comes with a lot more duties than just being a docile parasite.Literally got what she asked for and then whined about it anyway.May she stay independent for the rest of her miserable existence.
>>539055185A common law marriage is basically the same thing. It gives her the chance to take half your assets and do everything else involved in a divorce, even though you never consented to a marriage. She can't be a tradwife either because if she changes her mind later you'll find out that you were basically in a modern marriage the whole time, with the modern marriage pre-nup written by the state."Tradwife" is in reality just a fetish thing, like being into roleplay or BDSM. It doesn't enter into law. No judge would give a pass on alleged abuse because>your honor, she said she was into it!
>>539053637borrow it from your local datacenter
>>539055185>Common law marriage still exists in some states.that just forces a marriage contract onto an unwilling man, complete with all the horrible consequences of the feminist legal system
>>539044510> be off social mediaAttention is like air to modern foods. She will die without it
THERE IS A MISSPELLING IN THE FUCKING LINK ORIGINAL TITLE STUPID SHIT FUCK THIS STUPID SHIT EVERYTHING SUCKS
