Social media influencers promote traditional gender roles in the home.

Abby Roth, who calls herself a classical wife and mother, shares her conservative values on her YouTube channel, including strong opinions on the roles of men and women.Content featuring “tradwives” – women who value being a traditional wife, subscribing to homemaking and conventional gender roles – has flooded social media in recent years and, as the trend rises, American women are facing more scrutiny over their lifestyle choices.

Ivy Van Dusen, a stay-at-home mom and self-proclaimed “trad wife,” says she has always dreamed of motherhood.“My brand is embracing motherhood and enjoying motherhood,” said Van Dusen, a self-proclaimed tradwife. “A lot of people, unfortunately, have this negative view of the way people used to live,” she said. “I was really close with both my grandmothers and even my great grandmother, and they were just the coolest women.

More than 56% of American women are in the workforce – a number significantly higher than in the 1950s, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Statistics also show that in 2017, 54% of all U.S. households had two incomes, compared to 26% in 1955. In addition, more than 80% of single parents are mothers.

“Obviously, I have a degree, I have things I could do,” said Van Dusen. “Women like me have thought about that, and we know that things can go wrong. But I think the pros for me outweigh the cons and the reward outweighs the risk.” Abby Roth, who calls herself a classical wife and mother, shares her conservative values on her YouTube channel, including strong opinions on the roles of men and women.Like Van Dusen, Roth says she is not against moms who work. Despite understanding that single mothers and dual-income households are a reality, Roth advocates for women to reexamine their role in the economy.
