This account of a "tradwife's" awakening is shocking, but also not:

"Thousands of miles from friends and family, she reports becoming “the closest thing to a modern day, Western slave”. With no income of her own, she had to do everything: “The lawns, the house, the cooking, the baby care, his university homework."

His university homework?!

I've seen a few "tradwife" videos on Instagram and I can't fathom why any woman in the 21st century would choose this kind of life of submission. In one video, a man described taking care of his wife as if she were a plant. "Keep her hydrated, not over-stimulated."

I'm glad Lauren Southern escaped into the real world.

It’s a horrific story isn’t it? The thought of her trapped far from home in this abusive relationship is awful
