Study (N=595) finds hostile sexism (openly resentful toward women) was the strongest predictor of whether young men liked the tradwife movement. Another predictor: men who believed they needed a woman to feel complete.

Men who favor the tradwife lifestyle often view the women in it with derision

A new study reveals that young men who support the so-called tradwife movement are driven more by hostile sexism and resentment toward women than by a chivalrous desire to protect and provide for them.

@amydiehl @Npars01 I’m shocked, shocked that male tradwife supporters are misogynists.

"Adult men want the lifestyle of a 12 year old.

A woman taking care of their laundry, cooking, cleaning, and bills -- while they go play outside with friends."

They refuse to acknowledge that they want the use of a woman, but not a relationship or partnership with one.

Such men are confused by GOP messaging that says they are entitled to have this unfair & unequal arrangement with women.

@amydiehl I wouldn't call the tradwife lifestyle sexist, after all, people can make their own decisions even if its not my kind of thing. That said, from a division of labor perspective, if one spouse is able to bring in enough money to run the entire house and then some, then it makes sense for the other spouse to focus on the home so that the spouse that makes the money can make as much money as possible. Then again, it doesn't really matter who is the breadwinner and who manages the house so long as it is consensual. it just makes sense that the person who brings in the money should specialize in bringing home as much money as possible to provide for the family.

@commander555 @amydiehl quite right consent is what matters. it is the misogyny that is the problem. the close correlation between misogyny and tradwifism is noteable though, as are all red flags.

@amydiehl Proper tradwives serve their husbands Folger's coffee.

(yeah, but no... nobody needs to go back to 50's style "family values")

@amydiehl

When I met my wife, I didn't have a need to "feel whole”.

However, when we're apart, I do feel like half of me is missing…
