I'm a single cis hetero male in his late 30s. Got to admit I like the trad wife fantasy. But I also recognise it's just that, a fantasy. Despite the fact it's unlikely I'd get along with the sort of woman who'd agree to that sort of life, who the hell could even afford it? It's something politicians can say "they took from you" so we look at "them" to distract from what those polticians are taking from you.

I work as a Linux engineer (big surprise for a Lemming I know). I don't make a huge amount of money but it's still more than most people I know. I live a fairly comfortable life here in a not so great part of a somewhat deprived working class English town. I couldn't afford to live in the countryside, let alone support someone else whilst there. Maybe if I did have a wife who made our clothes, was able to spend time to shop super frugally and made our food from scratch we'd be OK but we'd still live in relative poverty.

Is that the hope of these trad wife influencers? That we'll be so busy churning our own butter and erecting our own barns like the Amish we'll have no time to react to them conquering the world?
