Tradwifism is one of the DR's favourite wank fantasies. The basic idea is that if women stay at home, wear nice dresses, and do all the housework, then the babies will pop out. Problems of the West solved!
Nice story.
There are lots of problems with that rosy view. For example, most of the incels jacking off to the meme, are not ready to support a woman (let alone even talk to her at the library).
Also, it is at several removes from basic reality.
There are a number of conditions under which women breed at a healthy rate. This still happens in certain Third World countries but even there rates are dropping. Look at Iran, where the fertility rate crashed after the Tradwife bros got into power in 1979:

Also, which Western society (or society with a "highly developed" economy) is willing to transform itself into an Islamic theocracy or Third World shithole? I'm not even arguing that that is necessarily a bad thing. I'm just arguing that there is no appetite for it, and without a nuclear cataclysm or some other horrific event, it is simply not going to happen. Not on the menu of reality, as I like to say, which kind of brings us back to tradwifism.
So, what's really stopping women pumping out sprogs in our societies? Lots of things, but zooming out, much of it is actually down to soft tradwifist attitudes.
This is best revealed by East Asian societies, which are permeated by Confucianist cultural residue and where the women are expected to do all the boring homey stuff while the man kicks back and sprawls out.
Recently Japan hit its lowest number of kids in living memory and nearby South Korea is at 0.72 kids per woman (or a two-thirds depopulation each generation)!!! Even the BBC is concerned:
Why are South Koreans not having babies?It has the lowest birth rate in the world and keeps plummeting. Today it hit 0.72.Yejin, a 30-year-old TV producer, has decided not to get married and have children."It's hard to find a dateable man in Korea - one who will share the chores and the childcare equally" she says.“And women who have babies alone are not judged kindly."
Yeh, women want that career and money to buy shoes and bags, etc., but there's more to it than that. Yejin also wants a guy who will "share the chores and the childcare equally." She's not interested in some LARPy shithead who wants to play king when he kicks off his shoes in the evening.
This also checks out with the data:
This shows that in countries like Sweden, Iceland, the US, France, and Israel, where men are "cucks" and do more of the housework and childcare, fertility rates are healthier.
Ironic isn't it?
This contrasts with countries like Poland, Japan, South Korea, and the Czech Republic, where men follow "soft tradwifist" codes and accordingly behave like entitled lunks. As you can see, these nations won't even exist in a few more years.
From this, and without adding anything more, it is easy to conclude that Tradwifism is yet another piss-poor piece of DR ideology and, worse than this, it is pure demographic cancer in a modern society.
Remember, serious political or metapolitical movements don't let memes do their thinking for them. They follow the science.
