About this episode

Do #TradWives have any real basis in American history? Are they nostalgia or mythology? Here to unpack it is journalist Clara Bingham, the author of The Movement: How Women’s Liberation Transformed America 1963-1973. What made #TradWives so popular in the 50s and 60s? Was it real or was it advertising? Aren't today's social media #TradWives just performing and creating advertisements of domesticity for brand deals? Let's dig in! You can order Clara's book The Movement: How Women’s Liberation Transformed America 1963-1973 here. Subscribe to the Over the Influence newsletter here. Learn more about your ad choices.
