  • Summary

  • In this episode, the resurgence of the traditional wife lifestyle on social media is examined. The recent outrage from women about this lifestyle and the receiving opposing reaction to that outrage is discussed. It is held that this reception boils down to the perception that these tradwives could be experiencing a case of adaptive preference that limits their boundless freedom (that which is the aim of a transcendent existence). Even if it might not be the case that these tradwives suffer from seeing other possibilities as “sour grapes,” the second issue of internalized toxic femininity is discussed. Generally, we should be conscious of the kind of content we choose to consume and how we shape our preferences and choose to act based on new information we learn from interactions with others. The bottom line here is that we should be aiming for a vision beyond capabilities: a world in which “throwing like a girl” is meaningless because there is no particular way girls throw.
