“We need to talk about the threat of the Women’s Liberation Movement. So let me be clear, I am not against women working outside the home, that’s their choice. What I am against is a small elitist group putting down the homemakers. They want to create a sex neutral society which will mean that women are gonna find themselves with TWO full time jobs”. - Mrs America (April 2020)

These housewives are the last gasp of the patriarchy, brainwhashed to believe that if they don’t play the game, they will lose the love and protection of men […] How long are we supposed to wait? How many more women are going to die from botched abortions while we wait for men to feel comfortable with us having control over our own bodies? How many women are gonna be forced to give birth to babies they can’t afford to feed while we wait for housewives, who have no idea what it’s like to have to work to survive, to feel comfortable with women having power? How long do we give people to adapt to change? Am I the only one who’s so fucking tired of waiting?
