Wife School: Submission Courses Gain Traction

0:00On April 28th, a new wave of online courses from Christian women is teaching wives to embrace total submission to their husbands. Think programs like Wife School, run by Tilly Dillay, a pastor's wife charging $17 for a six-week video class. She pushes ideas like proactive deference, where wives peddle behind on a tandem bike while husband steer, and always seek permission for even small choices. These classes fit into a bigger conservative push-blaming feminism for women's unhappiness. Creators share Bible verses and personal stories of blissful homes to sell stability, especially as young women aged 18-29 ditch. Organize religion over strict gender roles. Meanwhile, men are sticking around or coming back to faith. Experts like professors studying influencers say these courses pray on feelings of insecurity, framing every marriage problem as the wise fault. Men get homework to reframe complaints positively, and thank husbands three times daily, with no real focus on men's responsibilities.

Abuse gets a late disclaimer, directing to counselors who downplay victims, and critics warn it ignores real dangers in patriarchal setups. This trend ties to broader Christian nationalist views, priming women for compliance without over politics. With hundreds of roles and endorsements from big names, it's gaining quiet traction among those cravings, home front peace in shaky times.
