Even the more "reasonable" tradwives have NO IDEA how much feminism changed their lives for the better. I just love the way they claim to get to go back to "a more traditional time" without defining when that time was, what the laws vs norms were of the time, and how all technology (from cars to TV to medicine to the internet) makes their "traditional time" nothing more than "picking and choosing the level of modernization I want to fit my preferred narrative." I'm sure Jesus will be SO IMPRESSED with their hypocrisy!
