At some time during the mid to late 60's I read a magazine article about things we ladies needed to try to keep him interested. One of those things was that after you fixed dinner and did the dishes and put the children to bed...you should go around and ring the doorbell in a trench coat and when he opened the door, flash him wearing only saran wrapped all around your body. Come ON! After cleaning house all day, fixing dinner, cleaning kitchen and getting the kids to bed, I would have preferred he was NOT "interested" in me. Tradwife? No thanks.

That sounds like a waste of good saran wrap.

If you've seen "Fried Green Tomatoes", Evelyn (Kathy Bates) actually does it.  She read about it in a book, 1974:

I certainly got the impression that the trad wives on social media are over-the-top exaggerated for views. Just like others who hop on a bandwagon and make videos trying to become famous. Not saying maybe they really aren't SAHMs.

To a degree, it's cool to be bad. Remember that bad boy in school to all the girls wanted to date? And who can forget the son of a preacher man? Not me because I married him! 🙃  and it took two preachers to make sure we were good and married. His dad and my dad LOL

This is the first I've heard of this expression, "Trad wife/woman."   Can't a man be a "Trad Husband" to his wife?

What does it matter to you or anyone what a woman does to keep her man or woman *interested*?  Really.

I guess, as they say, you do you.  ??  Not for me!
