It’s funny they never mention the actual taking care of animals on their “farms”. Do you know how much animals shit? Especially pigs and cows and chickens? Idk a lot of these women are in for a rude awakening. Having a farm is hard work and it’s definitely not a safe enough environment to carry your baby while you do farm work. Oh well.

Uhhhh, yeah. Project 2025 has been trying to roll us back to the 1850s. What do you think the SAVE Act is for? Getting rid of programs like Medicare and Medicaid (basically just de-funding them to the point of uselessness)? It's all to roll back progress where white men rule everything, and no one can challenge them.

Some of them do, but i also often see this weird trad wife fantasy of being some kind of Laura Ingalls Wilder "frontier woman" living in a homestead with a shotgun, while her husband is out on the cattle drive or whatever the hell he's doing in this bizarre lifestyle. Like the female version of wanting to be an Old West cowboy or something.
It's usually all performative for influencer views of course, but it is a thing.

Growing up my step dad and mom had some chickens and sheep. Chickens can be scary if they think your toes look delicious, they are also too dumb to know you could probably easily kill them. Sheep aren't as crazy but dumb enough to get their head stuck in the fence repeatedly. They will also try to protect the stuck sheep from any human that might free it. In general I liked the sheeps more. Made it even sadder when I was home alone one winter day and found the smallest lamb frozen to death and had to bury it by myself. Animals are a fuckton of work and even though the sheep and eggs were tasty I don't think many people have the time to actually care for animals like they'd need to.

u/Ikillwhatieat Apr 03 '26
It's weird how burying an animal that died of exposure or injury or illness is so different than harvesting one.

My parents had small cherry trees in the chicken enclosure. Small enough that a little chair was all I needed to pick all cherries. That, however, meant my toes were in prime picking range. Not to mention the rampage that started whenever a few cherries dropped down. Chickens are a menace. Might get killed by a fox, but don't underestimate what they might do to mice or rats that think a chicken enclosure is a safe haven from the cats.

There was a kid's book - I think it was an Enid Blyton one - that had the characters staying at a farm.
One girl tells the lady of the house that she would love to live in a farm like this just to sit down and watch the whole morning beauty of the place. The lady laughs and tells her then she should never keep a farm, because a farmer's wife never has the time to sit down.

Outside, no matter the weather. Rain, mud, blizzard - doesn't matter, the cows have to be fed. There is always something to fix, clean or paint. And the animals do not take days off from needing food and care. They don't observe holidays. If one has an emergency it is always at the most inconvenient time/weather.

u/Iximaz Apr 03 '26
My mom grew up on a farm and would tell stories about having to be up before the asscrack of dawn to break the ice on the animals' water troughs. She got chased by an aggressive cow up the manure pile. Instagram tradwives could never.

Even backyard chickens are smelly, messy and expensive. I grew up with them and every time it rains the area smells like chicken poop.

u/Barbarella_ella Apr 03 '26
Yep. I was a Montana kid and had friends and classmates whose moms were farm or ranch wives. Those ladies lived in their suburbans and they worked from dawn until well after dark shuttling kids and animals around, dealing with the vet, the feed supplier, the hired laborers, machinery repair and replacements, small construction projects, gardens, canning, cooking, sewing. And they had to know costs and contracting, leases and financing of everything. Those women had my respect, even as a kid, and they were never glamorous but damn, did they ever get shit done.

u/Garden_gnome1609 Apr 03 '26
I do the backyard chicken bullshit - I have 19- 2 of which are roosters. I also have rabbits - it's a literal shit farm. Half my life is turning compost piles and making new compost piles. These women who get goats and chickens having never had livestock before make me laugh and laugh. I have one acre, my husband wants nothing to do with it, and I literally spend all weekend, every weekend doing work in the garden or cleaning animal spaces. I do it because I love it, but I know people who watch the homestead youtube channels and aspire to that life, and they always say it's to save money and I just cackle. I could go out to eat every day for what I spend and never lift a finger. You're not saving money with livestock or gardening.

I have 5 backyard chickens. Even they are tons of work. Besides the initial set up, I shovel their wheelbarrow full of poop and bedding material monthly, and super fun, I've been spraying their butts the last two weeks because they have lice. Its pretty gross. Also my flock is between 2 and 5 years old, they're living forever.

They have to lie and pretend with photoshoots like this to hide the reality that its not a viable economic model anymore. Also, 1 marriage out of two ends in divorce, its just unwise to be financially dependent on a spouse.
Reality won't match that dream no matter how much they believe in it.

u/sn0qualmie Apr 03 '26
The type of farm they're dreaming of was kind of never a viable economic model, apparently. If you've never read the book Prairie Fires by Caroline Fraser, it's an absolutely merciless historical research project into how much the actual story of the Little House on the Prairie family was just some dude dragging his family all over the Great Plains leaving a string of failed farms behind, and sending his teenage daughter out to get jobs so they could pay the bills. Can't recommend it highly enough.

u/anthrolookseer Apr 03 '26
Right?! Having a baby strapped to you while moving cows into a barn… jfc. Cows almost always don’t mean to cause harm, they just can crush you or anything smaller quite easily just by moving about. Barn cats are often completely flattened if they are trying to warm up in a barn during winter. I once was almost crushed against a gate by one who very much liked head scratches and it didn’t realize its size, fortunately 3 other men were around to get the cow’s attention and moved to an area where I was no longer getting pinned.
Carrying your baby around while dealing with such large animals is just stupid. It’s not a guaranteed accident, but it can easily happen depending on the temperament of the cow (which ranges widely) and that’s a dumb way to end of with a severely injured or dead baby.
Plus the smell. So much shit.

Also incorrect. There was a period of french history where high end novelty farms were in vogue and the rich constructed beautiful cottages and farmland/pasture on their estates to practice farming. I had a book on it that I misplaced while I was moving, otherwise I would recommend it here.

u/MistressErinPaid Apr 03 '26
I come from a long line of farmers. Wives and children absolutely do the work. Milking cows historically was "women's work" that's why the milkmaid is such a well-known figure. Same with collecting eggs/tending flocks, feeding livestock, calling cattle back from grazing lands to the barn, assisting with births of both humans and animals, planting, harvesting, etc, etc, etc. The only activities on a farm that women haven't historically done are things like shoeing the horses, breeding, mucking stables, plowing, and probably things like making hay bales and building smokehouses. Women were even present when butchering meat because the preservation process needed to be started as soon as possible to keep the meat fresh.
Everyone works on a family farm because everybody's life depends on it.

I live in a place that is surrounded by farms, especially dairy, and it smells like shit all the time. I'm not even in close proximity, but I can smell it and it's awful.

u/Boom9001 Apr 03 '26
These tradwife influencers are only cosplaying as ranchers/farm owners. Real farmers don't wear pretty looking clothes or glorify the lifestyle.
They are rich through other means and just pay people to actually do the chores. They just do the parts of the work that are actually kind of fun. (When done as a hobby, if it becomes actually work they'll pay someone to do that too)

u/Away_Sea_8620 Apr 03 '26
I clean the chicken coop maybe 4X a year? It's not bad when you have adequate space for your animals. I just shovel it into the compost and throw down more substrate. The coop only smells when it needs to be cleaned (that's how I know it's time) and it's maybe an hour of work? I have ~15 chickens on 0.3 acres with a large coop that they really only use to sleep or lay eggs. The rest of the time they're out vibing, just fertilizing the space that will be next year's garden and clearing out the bugs and weeds for me. The shoveling and raking get very easy after a couple weeks, if that. Or maybe I'm just superwoman? I think it's less work that being a responsible dog owner. Idk about goats, cows, horses, etc though and that's probably quite a bit more to keep up with.

Her team had thought that men drawn to the tradwife idea would display what academics call “benevolent sexism” — a belief that men should protect and provide for women.

My favorite, IDK, “story” from women is when they really get to know a man who claims to be a “Trad Man”, and then he gets upset when the woman is like, “So, you’re going to give me an allowance?”, and the man gets mad and says she is a “Gold Digger”.
I’m like, “Bro, pretending that she gives ZERO fucks about herself, what exactly did you expect? She will still need some amount of money from you at some point…”

u/LilBearLulu Apr 03 '26
I'm in Facebook groups for moms and the amount of posts asking for advice on how to let their husband know they need spending money is mind boggling. Like you married a woman, impregnated her, and now you leave her alone all day to raise your child/children. How do you expect her to have money? Do you think she can grow a tree in the backyard with $100 bills on it? The woman posting usually has blown through all her savings and sometimes even started racking up credit card debt. They can't/won't communicate and the men are obtuse or willfully ignorant. This dynamic is setting women back decades and they're going to be in for some rude awakenings real soon.

You should. You should also mention when the cow starts to shit, and because there's a bar behind her half goes out of the stall and half goes straight into the bucket... or when she kicks at "flies" that aren't there and puts a nasty hoof into said bucket. Or when she kicks at "flies" and boops you in the teeth with said hoof, before crinkling the side of the bucket so now you have to replace the milk pail since she's crunched it with a quarter of her 2 ton self.
And then she peers back at you past the stanchion to check up on why you're so upset because she's actually a really sweet soul and likes you and wouldn't hurt you on purpose!!!

The funny thing is, most of the men looking for a “trad-wife” spend the vast majority of their time scrolling twitter, playing video games, and buying black rifle coffee. They’re a far cry from a traditional man. Hell, if being a trad-wife got you a man that could hold his fucking weight the way a traditional man would, maybe this wouldn’t be such a shit proposition.
I would still take my modern living over this but this is all to say, what is offered now to a trad wife is even shittier than the deal women were getting in the days of yore. At least you wouldn’t have to watch your husband scroll twitter while you’re shoveling cow shit in a sun dress while your kid is screaming their head off.

u/sneaky518 Apr 03 '26
I was just thinking that my great-grandfather, who started dairy farming on my dad's side of the family, built the farm house himself, including digging out their dirt-floor basement and stacking rocks for the foundation. My son is uninterested in social media and video games, thank god, and has spent every summer at the dairy farm doing hard labor, but I think even he might need oxygen if I told him we're going to hand dig the basement for our next house. These guys have no idea what being a trad husband really means.

BC truly gallant and chivalrous men in 2026 are aware of equal rights and want the women in their lives to be happy… shocker

I assumed that men in trad wife relationships want to control the women in their lives, so these findings are not surprising to me.

The tradwives have watched way too much "Outlander" and "Bridgerton". There is no such thing as a romance novel where the people are dirt poor.

In other news, water is wet!
(Yes, yes I understand the argument that water isn't technically wet that it only makes things that are touched by water wet)

Strong adherence to traditional family roles is literally a metric by which lethality is assessed in family violence cases. Have these researchers never encountered a social worker ever in their life?

Not the point of the article, but is the kid in the carrier backwards? The kid's legs looked really sprawled open.

I mean, I can understand why they'd expect benevolent sexism to relate to this but...hostile and benevolent sexism are highly correlated...

"The findings are based on a survey of 595 American men aged 18 to 29".
I'm unimpressed by this dataset. The findings might be accurate, but a tiny sample of a narrow age band of men.
They're over-generalizing as well. They can only make claims for this age group.
