The Myth of the Tradwife

  • Summary

  • This week we talk about ‘tradwives’: what are they, where did they come from, and why is their content so popular right now?

    We discuss the ahistorical nostalgia that tradwives are predicated on, the politics of their labor and the neocolonial nature of homesteading. Really, we ask the question: does the ‘tradwife’ as we know her actually exist, or is she a mythic projection?
