alexis simpson is confused by display name changes @amutepiggy.bsky.social · 11/11/2025why are they "trad wives" and not "girls gone laura ingalls wilder" 22963181
Jan (née ZetteZelle) @jtfd.bsky.social · 11/11/2025As depicted in the books, Laura was a constant disappointment for her inability/refusal to give up pursuits like climbing trees and sliding down haystacks, and refused to include “obey” in her wedding vows (even as she promised that she didn’t want the right to vote). So a bit of a mixed bag. 170
Matt Trueblood @matrueblood.bsky.social · 11/11/2025Fanger. You really sank your teeth into this one. 110
Take out all g.o.p. trash in 2026 @spike02134.bsky.social · 12/11/2025a better pejorative would be female doormats. 000
armyguy8382.bsky.social @armyguy8382.bsky.social · 12/11/2025Because incels came up with the term. 000
alexis simpson is confused by display name changes @amutepiggy.bsky.social · 11/11/2025also: Wilder was apparently a huge dumbass libertarian, so maybe this tracks even more than I originally thought 1655

Dan Seitz @dseitz.bsky.social · 11/11/2025Because Laura would just laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and then they'd die of exposure. 040
Caleigh Fisher @kalifissure.bsky.social · 12/11/2025Because "trad wife" is associated with a submission to male authority that I'm not sure is supported by Laura. 120

Dave Provost @daveprovo.st · 12/11/2025I’m normally sick of this type joke, but you’re on a real heater with this one 010
OG_McDuck @ogmcduck.bsky.social · 11/11/2025Good question. If only there had been a Horny Little RV On The Prairie. 020
@aubergenius2 @aubergenius2.bsky.social · 12/11/2025Wilder wasn't a 'trad wife', though. She worked as a teacher, she wrote books, she had an identity outside her husband. 030
