Tradwives

About this episode

Katie and Sheyi discuss the tradwife phenomenon and its implications on happiness and societal roles.

In this episode, Katie and Sheyi discuss the tradwife phenomenon. Are tradwives really as influential as the media make them out to be? Which couples are actually happier—those in traditional setups, or those who split work and home life equally? And what are the religious and political implications of the online revival of domestic femininity they portray? Tune in to our penultimate episode before Blessed and Stressed takes a summer break.
