Wow that's awful. Our condolences to the family of the murder victim. 🙏✝️

I used to think I wanted to be a Tradwife until a couple of years ago when I began to really pay attention to my parent’s relationship. My mom is a tradwife, so for most of her life she has stayed at home and raised kids(she was 16 when she got married and now has 5 kids). My dad is very controlling as in he won’t let my mom wear dresses out, and he gets low key upset when my mom goes out with her sister(God forbid she ever goes out with her sister in a dress smh 🤦‍♀️ ) I’m pretty sure my dad has cheated on my mom before and my dad is starting to develop a drinking problem. Even with all this, my mother refuses to have an actual adult conversation with my dad because “that’s just the way they were raised”. My dad’s controlling behavior even spread to me and my sisters. My sister cut her hair short and dyed it red, and he continues to belittle her for it. When I mentioned lightening up my hair color, my dad looked at me all mad and told me I was crazy. I deadass looked him in the eye and told him that as a grown ass woman, I could do whatever the fuck I want with my hair. He also constantly talks shit about me doing my makeup and getting my nails done??? Cuz like it goes against his standards of ‘natural beauty’ or some shit. Don’t even get me started on the shit when I got a job. When I got my first job(at 18 in a shitty restaurant) I worked long ass days for very little pay. As the place had just opened, I doubled as both a cashier and waitress, and I was usually tired as shit by the end of the day. When I came home I was still expected to help with dinner, while my dad and older brother just sat back and watched tv. I asked my dad why my brother didn’t have to help and he got so mad he deadass told me it was because I was a woman and ‘that’s what women do’. I was livid so I stopped talking to him, it was even worse cuz my mom didn’t say anything. Just remembering what my dad has done to me alone, I could never imagine being in a relationship where I’m being constantly being disrespected and controlled in such a manner for 20+ years. I would much rather be alone and independent making my own money than look like a clown for a sexist man ✌️
