Ok now what the hell is a trad girl?

[–] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 53 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Trad = traditional = usually code for conservative white Christian 50s gender roles, as sold to zoomers by social media influencers.

It's molded tuna, as in she used a mold to shape pureed tuna like the shape of a fish, which is what I assume was a popular dish in the 1950s when gelatin was a sign of wealth due to requiring refrigeration to set.

Chastity and decency only to the public eye, of course. In private life she should be su missive and do anything these coomers want her to.

The neoconservative ideal of a girl that is "wife material": chaste, submissive, adhering to old-fashioned feminine canons, sexist... Summarised under the umbrella term of "trad[itional]".

[–] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Gotcha. Thanks for clarifying that for me

[–] some_random_nick@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Trad - traditional
