The Double Edged Sword of Tradwives + the Soft Girl Era Excavate

    • Christianity

Today we’re talking about a phenomenon seen most clearly in online content but reflecting a broader societal trend. We’re talking about the “soft girl era” and “tradwives” aka traditional wives. There’s something about it that’s appealing to younger women, in particular, and painting traditional gender roles in a new aesthetic and often deceptive light. We’ll talk about what paved the way for this trend, what good we can find in this, and the dangers of blindly accepting this as a harmless niche trend.
