    I think we should let people do what makes them happy.

    What he forgot to mention is feminism destroyed the family. Family is the backbone of any society. No fault divorce was the gasoline on the feminism fire. Glad to see young people pushing back.

      What's the alternative to feminism in your opinion? Patriarchy? Because in those societies, polygamy, concubinage, woman not being able to write a book or vote are commonplace ideals - simply because women are born women.

      The idea that feminism destroyed the family is idiotic, utterly ridiculous and has no basis in fact. Feminism was designed to give women choices and disrupt stringent gender roles that were too restrictive and stifling.

    When a husband tells you he loves you more than anything and wants you to be happy then the wife has nothing to fear in showing respect. And it doesn’t mean the wife has no say.

    All I know our society was better off when the man went to work and the woman stayed at home with the children and looked after the house. But back then you didn't need two incomes to survive. God I wish we could go back to the 50's.

    I'm a SAHM ... 2 boys, so far. I do most of what she does... by default, I'm home as I'm the main provider for 1 of my children since I am breastfeeding. However, I still want to be able to work as I find that enjoyable and fulfilling. I want to know that I can support my family if I should ever need to.
    At this stage, I'm where I am suppose to be. Once kids enter, 1.5 to get ready, goes to 10 mins... a clean house can be clean, however becomes child chic... some of her expectations and needs will change. She will need the physical, mental, and emotional support of her husband as kids are draining. She will also need breaks... her job will be selfless 24/7. Anyone be on 24/7 is hard and challenging. Not to add in, when doing all the house chores, those are interrupted constantly. Keep adding children, demands go up. Being able to shift needs, priorities, balance is what it truly takes. It's great to have this sparkling home, fresh meals and things to look perfect... when in reality, your kids want your attention, family time is important, connecting with your spouse in the mix of kids, balancing life is going to be core. Let's not forget, all the fun stuff of pregnancy.... I could write a chapter book! Having a realistic view of roles for each other, and being to ebb and flow is the most important fact in this case. Life is chaotic, beautiful, hard and fun...

      She will definitely need to adjust as she ages and has kids I'm sure she'll wisen up.... To eliminate the fear of if I need to support our family in the future, we simply are very financially responsible with our lower middle class income, no debt but the house, and we both have life insurance, but much more for my husband. I am able to pay off the house(or sell it) if need be, and have a few hundred thousand to invest, the further you get in life the less risk if you are meeting financial and retirement goals. There is definitely high risk in your 20s (assuming you get married ans have kids at a once normal age) and horror stories do happen. I'm 41 and feel relatively safe, I've been out of the job market for 7 years now and I know that I'm resourceful when needed though I dont have high earning potential education wise . So being blessed to be home.

    I had that for 20 years. It failed when I began working away from home 4 days a week. She and her feril friend ended it they began to play while I was away. One week i returned home early and the kids were in bed asleep, her and her female friend, and others, were out drinking in the middle of the night. Things went downhill fast from that night.

      Well at some point you want kids in a traditional marriage and family.
      Women and Men have different biological functions.
      When women get pregnant and start a family within the traditional marriage. Each pregnany takes a year away from a womans career. Since pregnancy can last up to 10 months, including breastfeeding. The husband has to work to provide during this time.
      If you're not hardworking than don't demand to be a traditional marriage. Men and Women are not the same which is why Traditions have worked for so long and Traditional way is the best way to conserve value.

  • @tryphenarose384
    @tryphenarose384 5 місяців тому +3

    I'm a stay-at-home mom, and from my experience, this can be great, depending on your husband. If your husband is controlling and wants to micromanage your life because he believes he has the authority to have complete say over you, is incredible degrading and disrespectful to the wife. This is not a one size fits all lifestyle. If you have a man over you, who wants you to be so submissive that you can't speak your opinion or feels that he's superior to you because he is a man and you are a woman, that can be very imprisoning. Especially if religion is brought into the mix, then this can very easily become spiritual abuse, and has for many women in many instances. It's far better to have a man that is loving, respectful, honors his woman and trusts her enough that she can make wise decisions for herself, which they can have healthy discussions about together as a team - one unit. Hopefully enough trust is established before marriage, that that is natural within marriage, but sadly this isn't always the case.
    I've seen woman who had a husband try to force her into polygamous marriages, all while using biblical submission - because in the bible, a man having multiple wi - ves was permissible. This is the kind of stuff I'm referring to. And surely, if this woman was going through this kind of dynamic, she wouldn't be making the content she is making. Good on her if her and her husband have a healthy marriage and can make it work. But this standard shouldn't be placed on everyone, because then the pressure usually falls on the woman to submit, submit, submit - which just causes her real harm emotionally and mentally. In these hyper-idealized kind of communities, these kinds of toxic things can easily and quickly become commonplace.

  • @devinreis5811
    @devinreis5811 5 місяців тому +2

    I'm a woman, and if you're not bothering anyone, I really don't care how you live your life. What I can't stand is Estee's snobbish attitude. I don't get the opportunity because I have severe epilepsy and autism, and I need to be able to work and would LOVE to have the ability to have basic economic opportunity; I have to worry about not dying a lot. Legally, disabled people can't have more than $2000 in their bank accounts, so goodbye economic opportunity; I'm probably going to be legally forced to work until I die. It's her snobby and "I'm better than you" attitude that I don't like. The bashing women that choose to go a different route is what I don't like about the whole thing. I also think about the girls as young as seven that are forced into that situation. I also think about the countries where women and girls have very few opportunities to have lives. I just can't stand her snobby attitude and ridicule of women that choose to go a different route. Otherwise, you do you.

    Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.

      You are twisting biblical submission into something it isn't. If you care to have an understanding, go read about it. If you'd rather keep telling a story that makes yourself feel better, go nuts. No need to correct you, you know exactly what you did.

    The problem is that everyone, especially women have become hyper materialistic. These “trad wifes” expect you to make hundreds of thousands per year to even qualify. Plus they know they can get more out of the eventual divorce (child support and alimony, the house and cars) by refusing to work during the marriage
