Feminist scholars who spoke to USA Today called the boom in trad wife content on social media a "political" movement that has shaped the culture, particularly among Millennial and Gen Z women. They also say it romanticizes traditional gender roles that Trump and his running mate, JD Vance, have promoted.
"(Trad wives) are endorsing a lifestyle, and they're endorsing a way of moving through the world that is very political," feminist studies researcher Jess Rauchberg, an assistant professor of communication technologies at Seton Hall University, told USA Today.
