I can’t tell you how much this tradfem group inspires me. Whenever I feel in a funk or need some motivation in regards to my home needs I always find it here. It reminds me that it’s ok to put on “people clothes” instead of my sweats, clean something, and do a little cooking. Thanks for the inspiration lovelies!
Gender roles were created based off of biological needs. Women birth the child, women stay home with the baby. Men are physically stronger, men protect and provide. My gosh, it’s so simple yet this generation loves to complicate things. You don’t have to vigorously follow these roles to perfection either. Of course some gender roles are ridiculous, but the core of it makes a lot of sense. Gender roles aren’t just about the individual, they help the child as well. To me, these roles are about sacrifice, and submission to nature. Everything that the ego isn’t.
Let’s take that further. I want my future wife to not work at all, even before children. Having her safe, happy, and not stressed out will be far more valuable than the extra income.
I find that interesting.
I have fibromyalgia, 3 years into my relationship with my darling I was struggling to keep up with my part time job. He asked me to stop working because he couldn’t stand how it was looking like it was killing me. I was okay with this because I was struggling to care for myself without help. I ask him not that long ago if it would have worked for us if I stayed in some sort of job he said no. He looked me in the eye and said that we probably wouldn’t still be together if I was still working because the way we split the work has made life better for the both of us, even though extra money would be nice he’d rather have me exactly where I am. Honestly it made me so happy because I like the person I am as the homemaker. I definitely won’t work unless I’m forced to.
That’s pretty much exactly how I feel. I’m really happy you have a man who wanted what ended up being the best for both of you. Personally I just can’t imagine having a wife that works too. But I keep meeting men who talk about how they want it equal and would think she’s lazy if their girlfriend/wife didn’t work. Even when they have kids.
I just don’t get it. I don’t care of my future wife will have to spend all day doing domestic work to get things done or it only takes her an hour. I’m not looking for equality or “pulling your own weight.” I want her to be able to do her duties to the best of her abilities so I can do mine to the best of mine too. I’ve also had a relationship where my girl worked too and it was miserable. She was constantly stressed out, I wasn’t able to relax when I got home because she wasn’t able to either. Sure, we were making more money, but I noticed she wanted to spend pretty much everything she made just for things to destress with.
I don’t want that again. I aim to fulfill my duty as a provider and protector and will be relying on my wife to be the nurturer of the household.
Are you confused by these terms? Well don’t be any longer.
Tradfem means “traditional femininity” or “traditionally feminine”.
Tradfems love traditional gender roles, and romance and marriage. We do not force our views onto anybody, we just want to lead happy lives! But people attack us for no reason.
YOU’RE NOT A TRADFEM IF YOURE A PORN BLOG. STOP ACTING LIKE YOU ARE. FREAKS.
Radfem means “radical feminist”. They hate man and trans people, and are generally all around bad people. They harass women for being in relationships with men, they want to kill men, and say that whenever a man is abused or raped, he deserved it, or that it never happened, or that it wasn’t as bad because “women go through much worse!” radfems are also known as terfs (trans exclusionary radical feminist). Most everybody hates terfs, so block them if you want. Most of them have “rad” in their urls, but that doesn’t mean that everybody with “rad” in their url is a radfem, because rad is still a completely normal and harmless word. Don’t block someone just based on their url.
So I hope I taught you something. Tradfems are good! Radfems are bad.
“Behold the inheritance of the Lord are children: the reward, the fruit of the womb. As arrows in the hand of the mighty, so the children of them that have been shaken. Blessed is the man that hath filled the desire with them; he shall not be confounded when he shall speak to his enemies in the gate.”
Psalms 126:3-5 DRC1752
On this day in 2015, the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, my journey towards Catholicism began. Six years later, I am 12 weeks pregnant with our first little arrow! We found out on Father’s Day that God blessed us with this child on our honeymoon and we are absolutely overjoyed and grateful to Him. We can’t wait to meet him or her in February 2022. We love you, little one. Deo gratias!
It has been a very long time. I hope you all are doing well!
I just want to check in! I am well, just a bit tired I am here to ask for your prayers. This next month will just be a lot. I am graduating next week and I have to prepare for my finals.
Also, we are getting married in just 36 days! Please pray for our final preparations and for our future marriage. You are in our prayers as well!
Be sure to check out my Linktree for updates. I am on a general social media hiatus now just because of finals and moving prep, but I am usually the most active on Instagram, Twitter, and Wordpress. I plan on returning to YouTube this summer as well.
After prayerful consideration and discussion with the TCM page admin team, I have decided to become mostly inactive on Tumblr.
This was a difficult decision since this is where I first started years ago. I am still leaving my page up for archival purposes. I might check in once in a while but the best way to reach me is email, Facebook, Instagram, and the contact form on my new WordPress page!
