If the average American were asked what they imagine the priorities of the feminist movement are these days, most people would likely cite concerns like “fighting abortion bans” or “getting justice for sexual violence victims” or boring mainstays like “equal pay for equal work.” But if you listen in to the world of right-wing social media influencers, they have a different answer. To them, feminists are single-mindedly obsessed with destroying women who identify as “tradwives.”

    “Tradwife” is internet slang for “traditional wife.”

    Thanks for clearing that up.

        I thought it was a trade-wife… meaning one that could construct dovetail joints from furniture. My enthusiasm is misplaced, and i feel bad.

        I wish I knew more women and men who liked rock climbing. It’s so fucking flat here, and I can’t find anyone who wants to take vacations to go climb.
