This is such a hilarious way of attempting to reconcile with the unsettling, ungrounding realization that anyone could be anyone if you didn't coerce them. If they were free.
If you look at the linked results (which might not be statistically solid anyway, this is some sort of online survey) it’s ”47% want stable marriage with kids”, no mention of tradwife, which at least I understand as men earning the money and women knowing their place.
- No, Relationship, Travel, creative career, kids.
- Normal job, married, "trad husband"
and I suppose there are others and "Trad" wife would cover "Happily married, kids, ‘no’ job.". I also suppose "Trad" implies a "leave it to Beaver mother " sort of lifestyle, always homemaking watching kids. Not out doing stuff.
well, corporations and government will not like this article, but it had to come to an end due to high stress, massive layouts and low child births. No need to be in a dog fight all the time
With all the projections of a pending population collapse, we should probably want these numbers to be even higher.
Being a mother and raising good kids is an invaluable role in society, and a generation of women were brainwashed to see it as a form of oppression. I don’t know what could be more empowering than bringing life into the world, or more rewarding than watching child grow up. What career is going to give that level of satisfaction?
It is a shame that the term has come up like it has. It is trying to put people into a very broad category. Any one in a marriage involving a man "winning the bread" and a woman taking care of the domestic work is going to be put in the same category as people with different views on topics like immigration, tariffs, and other political topics.

After reading through the questions and underlying answers, here’s what was presented:
[1]- Trophy wife, Rich partner, no job [2]- Single, Famous, independent (children ambiguous) [3]- Happily married, kids, ‘normal’ job. [4]- Relationship, Travel, creative career, no kids.
Percentages were: 14%,23%,46%, 16%.

Somehow ‘tradwife’ in this scenario is anything that doesn’t fit into the three other buckets.
- Trophy wife, Rich partner, job.
- Married, Famous, independent (children ambiguous)
- No, Relationship, Travel, creative career, kids.
- Normal job, married, "trad husband"

How many other categories could be thought up.
