Sometimes people need to learn the hard way ig. I just hate that that kind of content could influence younger girls into falling into the same path

👏🏼There’s a difference in being dependent on a man and relying on him for everything/wanting to just “serve” him, and wanting a 50/50 relationship where you want to be a SAHM!! No one is saying you can’t want to be a mom, but you should always be able to provide for yourself IF something were to happen

unless you come from money there’s no way to be independent as a sahm. there’s a reason why women fought so hard to be able to earn our own money

I would also strongly encourage other women to get their education and some working experience before jumping into becoming a sahm at such a young age so they can have something to fall back on if things don’t go as planned. Yet I still see tradwife content discouraging girls from doing either of those unfortunately

even if someone did this, they’d still have a several year long gap in their work history if they ever had to go back 😭 it’s definitely better than the alternative of having no education/experience but it’s also not really a good alternative especially with the job market being what it is

Exactly. Feminism is the right to CHOOSE what we want to do. Just because you or I wouldn’t do it, why should that affect what someone else does with their own life?

that’s choice feminism 😭 feminism is the liberation of women. you have the freedom to choose bc of feminism, but that doesn’t make every choice a woman makes automatically feminist

wdym exactly? that’s not what you were saying 2 mins ago. also trust me i know i have no control over anyone’s life, but that doesn’t mean i can’t feel bad about watching women choosing to be reliant on a man

I’m just glad that someone else’s choices (that have zero impact on my life) don’t affect my own life as they seem to affect yours!
