The movement tradwife has given rise to debates, even conflicts in social networks, with positions that have come to create certain hoaxes or erroneous conclusions that, either due to misunderstandings or simple conflict, have ended up attacking the movement and creating a series of unrealistic myths that distort the true essence of this lifestyle. Below, we disprove some of the most common ones:

1-. Tradwives are ultra-right-wing

The idea that tradwives are linked to the far-right has been amplified by different media and social media profiles that often seek easy clickbait and sensationalist narratives. However, this approach simplifies and misrepresents the motivations behind the movement.

Many women who identify as tradwives have no political affiliation, nor are they right-wing, much less ultras. Normally, a tradwife will not mix politics with her way of life. The tradwife movement is a personal choice based on family and community values that transcend ideological divides.

It is often extremist and confrontational movements and individuals who point to this way of life with extreme ideologies, but the values of generosity, equality and service espoused by tradwives are not aligned with any kind of ultra or exclusionary movement.

In this sense, the tradwife movement can be seen as an apolitical space, where the priority is personal and family well-being.

2-. They are white supremacists and racists.

It is important to note that tradwives are a diverse group, with a wide range of backgrounds, beliefs and values. Being a tradwife is a personal choice that is not defined by race, religion or political affiliation. It is a lifestyle that any woman can embrace if she finds happiness and fulfillment in it. Tradwives focus on family, home and their relationships, leaving aside external divisions or conflicts.

There is a notion that this movement is specific to Western and white women. However, women from diverse cultures and ethnic backgrounds are freely adopting traditional roles in the home.

This is another myth that has spread, but the traditional way of life is a personal choice that can be adopted by any woman who feels she will be happy this way, regardless of race, religion or political affiliation.

3-. The tradwife movement is anti-feminist.

Some critics argue that the tradwife movement represents a setback in gender equality advances. However, many tradwives see their choice as a form of empowerment and a vindication of the freedom to decide their role in society.. The key lies in respecting the diversity of choices that women can make based on their values and beliefs.

Although tradwives may not be the "target" of modern feminism or ultra-feminism, classical feminism is based on respect for women and their choice of life in freedom and without external oppression. A woman who freely and consciously chooses to lead a traditional lifestyle, complementing her femininity with that of her husband, may be a feminist as well.

The key is that tradwives do not see their choice as a denial of other women's rights. They recognize the diversity of roles that every woman can assume in modern society and respect the decisions of those who choose non-traditional careers or lifestyles.

The real step backwards would be to deny the diversity of options that women have today and to fall into judgment towards those who opt for more traditional roles. In this context, being a tradwife is not about denying feminist advances, but about exercising and defending the freedom that these advances have allowed them: the freedom to choose their own path without being judged.

4-. Tradwives are submissive and oppressed women.

Assuming a traditional role does not mean giving up autonomy or independence, or submit to the husband. One can still make important decisions within the relationship, manage the household finances and have a voice in family affairs. This balance allows for building an environment based on cooperation, not domination.

In this movement, therefore, there is no subordination or submission to the spouse. but a complementation and cooperation to carry out a life project. These roles are part of a partnership based on mutual respect, where the contributions of each party are equally valued. Taking care of the home, supporting your partner and raising your children are responsibilities as important and worthy as any other.

In this aspect, husbands are usually the main economic provider, and tradwives contribute with household management, emotional support and child rearing, tasks that are essential for the stability and happiness of the family.

Tradwives consciously choose their role as an expression of their personal freedom, finding satisfaction in household chores and caring for the family. This choice does not necessarily imply submission or oppression, but a preference for a specific lifestyle.

5-. Tradwives have no personal goals or objectives.

While many tradwives choose not to participate in the paid workforce, this does not necessarily mean economic dependence. Some manage household finances, participate in home economics or undertake home-based businesses, contributing significantly to family economic stability. Some tradwives also engage in community and connect with other women by learning and improving your lifestyle

Tradwives are believed to lack aspirations beyond the domestic sphere. In reality, many of them have clear goals and personal projects that harmonize with their lifestyle. Dedication to the home does not preclude the possibility of having meaningful personal goals.

Conclusion

The traditional women's movement speaks for itself and is not an attack on other types of movements. When you approach any lifestyle or life choice with an open mind, you learn to respect from freedom and acceptance in harmony.

Love for others, respect and education in values make our society richer and more varied, inclusive and equitable.
