Exclusive | My husband quit his high-paying job to be a 'tradwife' and he's great at it - I should know, I used to be one
Briefly

Kerry Johnson, a former health care administrator, transitioned to being a stay-at-home dad, adopting the role of 'tradhusband'. He believes this shift has saved his marriage and values his new responsibilities. As societal norms evolve, more men are opting to stay home, reflecting a trend where men take on household duties traditionally assigned to women. This change is highlighted by Pew Research data showing that 23% of married men are now leaving their jobs to care for the family, emulating the 'tradwife' philosophy. Kerry's wife, Sharon, previously upheld traditional roles but now works in health administration after leaving their faith's influence.
I take a lot of pride in being a homemaker. I'm able to provide for my wife and kids in this new way - I get to ensure that they're going out their door as their best selves.
The tradwife trend has been criticized for prioritizing the puritanical practices of mid-20th century America, when women were thought to be better off barefoot and pregnant - rather than bringing home the bacon.
Pew Research data reveals that 23% of today's married men are saying adios to the office, in order to care for homes and families - in true tradwife style.
Kerry's spouse, Sharon, dutifully answered for 14 years, owing to the family's deep roots in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints - a faith that promotes conventional gender roles in marriage.
