12. I have a niece marrying a fundie Catholic

Fri May 8, 2026, 10:55 AM

Friday

this summer.

She wants to be a Trad wife because "school was so difficult and work has been so stressful, I just want to stay home and have babies and make brownies. Just be a beautiful little girlie all day, getting ready for my hubs to get home".

And wear pearls and high heels all day, I reckon?

Oh, girl. You have no idea what you are setting yourself up for. I wish more of my mother's generation were still alive to tell her what that life is really like.
