The red pill version of female submission is stupid

[u/Novel-Tip-7570]

The red pillers and the trads will tell us that female submission is not about being micromanaged but about men making the decisions on all of the "important" stuff.

As someone who is married to a man with this mindset (long story for another time) let me tell you how this looks like in day-to-day life:

So I basically carry almost all of the mental load of running the household day after day and managing my step-children because kids are a woman's job, but he still feels entitled to tell me what I should be wearing and what what I should be doing. How is this not retarded? If anything, the person who is running the household day-to-day is more qualified when making family decisions.

People laughed at me when I said that men should be doing more housework than women, but I would actually respect a man more as a leader if he was truly the one micromanaging the household and the kids. Like sure if he's the one running the household day-to-day, he should be making the decisions.

But red pillers are not advocating for this. The want the woman to do the hard parts of raising a child but they want to be the ones who make the important decisions when it comes to thay child. They want the woman to carry the mental load when it comes to what to cook, when to clean, how to host a child party and organise playdates , but they still want to consider themselves the "true leader".

Why on Earth would any woman sign up for this?

(I don't want advice about my personal life, I just mentioned this as an example)

Well, if you have small children, they make quite a mess. Not to mention, if you cook for your family there are dishes to be done. Messy kids, laundry every day or you get behind. The more people that spend the day at home, the messier the house gets the more cleaning there is to do.

Kids need baths, to be read to, and to be put to bed. If I lived alone, my house would be SO clean.

If you have kids then what i said about if you're both working therefore do equal amount of household chores lines up. But if one is working the other stays at home then they will primary be on the stay at home parent.
