Misogyny is having a renaissance – and it’s fueled by the internet. Once confined to dark corners of social media, the manosphere now seems omnipresent as a generation grows up internalizing this new form of misogyny.

But as most now find this return to simpler times an economic impossibility, what’s the tradwife trend really trying to bring back? Our expert guests uncover whether the tradwife is the female parallel of the manosphere and why the tradwife’s links to systems of inequality straight out of the 1950s aren’t a coincidence.
