[quote=Anonymous]I’m a married conservative ( politically) non-religious woman. I consider myself traditional in many ways, but I don’t subscribe to this trad wives movement. I feel like women have been traditional for many years, and it’s not some trend that hot at the moment.

I don’t stay at home FT because I worked hard for my career and believe keeping myself up career wise is really important. I do enjoy taking care of my family by creating a loving and peaceful home, nourishing them with home cooked meals, and enjoying one-on-one attention with all of them. I compromised and I work PT while enjoying the benefits of being home with my kids more.

Being a traditional woman doesn’t always mean being a homemaker. I’m traditional in my values and “ submitting” to my husband.

I also do not understand the outrage. What is so wrong with providing a safe and loving home for your family? I may not fully provide financially, but I provide in ways my husband can’t. We are a team and this dynamic wouldn’t work without both of us doing our respective roles.

Women can have careers or choose to stay at home. Their choice is theirs.

I also have two boys and I will teach them basic tasks that every adult should know. Every human, regardless of gender, should know how to do laundry, cook basic meals, clean, etc. [/quote]
