About this episode
Unless you have sworn off social media, you're probably familiar with the existence of "tradwives" - women who live their lives according to traditional, conservative gender roles. They often describe themselves as living biblically, or having a biblical marriage, celebrating that they are subservient to their husbands.

Is this style of patriarchal living actually biblical, and how would women at the time have been expected to live?
