The trad wife trend is a dangerous, performative aesthetic that promotes the loss of female autonomy and terrifies her because it discourages young women from building independent lives.

“This tradwife thing is terrifying to me because it's it's almost like, you know, they're grabbing all these teenagers, right? I've seen a ton of 19-year-olds that are like, I'm you know, I'm 19 years old and I'm married and I just love my life and I have my iced coffee and then I make my husband his”

The Good Liars imply that the intersection of trad wife culture and doomsday prepping is rooted in cognitive dissonance.

“I think they're probably experts in cognitive dissonance”
