We tiptoe around issues of major concern in this country. One of these issues is the patriarchy and how Christianity enforces the patriarchy, and how things like these trad wife movements and other similar things are, well, frankly, astroturf-y. In fact, most of the influencers that are pushing for trad wife-dom are not themselves trad wives and earn quite a bit of money. It’s entirely gaslighting, with the result of this so-called movement being little more than the re-subjugation of women. This is something that we should take seriously.
The reason Patriarchy is wrapped up in it is that Patriarchy is wrapped up in it, and the reason Epstein is wrapped up in it is that Epstein is the obvious conclusion of following a dangerous philosophy that sees women as incompetent and second-class. Somehow, though, this is a result that a lot of men and women struggle to connect, so we’re connecting the dots in this podcast episode.
Trigger warning: we talk about Epstein, and we use the words that are appropriate to do so.
