I was talking to a friend who wants to quit her job and just “take care of the house” while her husband works, and through the conversation it was clear that she wanted to do the things she took pleasure in and not do the things she didn’t (so cooking every meal from scratch was a go, but vacuuming was a no). (Her husband is against this, because he also wants to quit his job and separately recognizes his wife is an extrovert who will start to break down if she doesn’t have constant plans with people.)
Anyway, it crystallizes for me what I think the actual issue is here, and why women buy into this, and it’s that we’re starved for leisure. We’re working 40 hours a week, usually at jobs that aren’t fulfilling, and we want some outlet that lets us feel at peace and connected to nature and all that cottagecore.
But that’s not life. Cows are hard. Keeping apple trees alive and fruiting is a chore. There is no ethereal feminine to connect to. We’re just burnt the fuck out, and any work we can romanticize sounds better than the work we’re currently doing.
So instead of depending on our boyfriend or husband to have that well paying job so we as a women can rest and relax (spoiler: a lot of the housewifery isn’t restful or relaxing), how about we fight like hell to get to the world where we all - men, women, non-binary folks, everybody - have more leisure time. Maybe it’s a 25 hour work week, maybe it’s a UBI, maybe it’s a combination of the two. But joy isn’t found in unpaid labor - it’s found in meaningful labor. And meaningful labor doesn’t remain so if you’re trapped in the feminine domesticity because you have no money to escape it when it becomes monotonous and dreary and drab.
I was high off my ass last night and had this dream where I was in this dense ass forest and sitting there was a tall woman. She was so tall I couldn’t see her face but she was wearing gold and I was like “uh…hi?” And she said “I made you, do you know that?” And I nodded and she was like “I hear your thoughts. Why do you hate my creation? Why do you try to destroy yourself? I made you perfect as you are. Please don’t break my heart”. Then she started crying and it flooded and I woke up with fucking heart palpitations like what does it Mean™️????
This is really beautiful!!!
