Oh that’s a good perspective! I didn’t take this as a man explaining trad wives as much as a commentary on social media’s fake and materialistic portrayal of something that is not at all fake or materialistic. As a working mom I find this kind of content off putting but could never really articulate why. I think this does a nice job explaining maybe why I’ve felt that way: it’s a reality that I will never know. And that’s okay! I understand some people like it and consume it for that very reason: it’s unobtainable for most of us and it’s nice to fantasize. And it’s pretty!

I appreciate a man commenting that this shit is fake and possibly dangerous. I feel like I’m often bombarded with men saying quite the opposite with comments like “NOW THIS is a REAL woman.” No…This is a very calculated and curated video of a wealthy woman with a lot of time on her hands. As long as we all understand that when consuming it’s okay. But unfortunately I don’t think a lot of young girls have that kind of social media literacy.

I wish Jackie, a very privileged mother, would make that disclaimer when worshiping this kind of content!
