Trad Wifers: Women will be so much happier if we go back to the traditional ways.

My Sisters In Christ, female suicide was 20% higher before No Fault Divorces.

And here's the thing, I don't even blame all the women that fall into this mindset. They are working full time jobs and barely making it or not making it at all, and still doing most of the household chores and childcare. They want to have time to spend with their child and make bread and garden. Here is some beautiful put together woman online telling them it's possible if they just marry a man that wants to take care of them. Those of us who have been around awhile know better, we know why the world is like this, but not everyone does their research

@RickiTarr Well, we also confuse the face that many women put on in very traditional roles with how they really feel. This image of the woman who sacrifices herself for the family, makes her husband happy and always smiles. Because she was taught that that's what good women do. And when the marriage breaks down at some point, you don't know what's going on. Wasn't she always happy? No, not at all. She just swallowed everything and no one was empathetic enough to notice. That's not uncommon.

@Pistolenkind It's true, I hear so many men saying they had no idea there was anything wrong in their marriage and then suddenly the wife leaves

@RickiTarr @Pistolenkind Larry Gopnik's arc phrase in A Serious Man (2009): "I haven't done anything."

@Vorsos @RickiTarr How ironic that they are often right. Some men often see their relationship as a comfort. They do nothing and the woman gives until she is empty. They do nothing. That is the point.

@Pistolenkind @RickiTarr It’s a fascinating film that hammers it home in several ways. Complacency has consequences.
