She can mould herself remember.Yeah but what 'tradwife qualities' does she bring to the table?Back when she lived with Joe, she even had a cleaner come weekly to clean a 2-bedroom apartment. A true tradwife cleans a 5-bedroom house, takes care of husband and 4 kids and has time to go to church lol
If that happens: I am outThose trad wife sahm channels are huge, maybe she isn't as stupid as she seems.
I do think she rushed moving in with guys tbh.Maybe Elle thinks she didn’t get her dream life because she wasn’t following the conservative traditional values of marriage and family. Maybe Elle believes if she had sustained from sex, and not moved in with men all before marriage she could have had her dream life. She thought the baby trap would work but Eric isn’t as in the money as Chris or Joe and her even thou she got her husband she didn’t get the lifestyle she thought. She doesn’t see it’s her immaturity and selfishness that got her where she is.
Wonder what happened to his backTbh, the writing was on the wall all this time. She was an insufferable Karen from the get go. Now she's just expanding her character arc
'Near-death experience' at university when she cut her hand. Being angry at a delivery driver for delivering her food late BECAUSE HE WAS IN A TRAFFIC ACCIDENT and having no qualms about posting such inappropriate and selfish rant online (also eating the greasy takeaway food in a hotel bed). Going camping for a weekend and spending half the evening on her own in a tent, applying La Mer products and talking to her camera, instead of socialising with the people she came with. Pretending to be a 'local Seattle business' a month after she moved to the city and stayed in an airbnb.
Flying to Hawaii during the pandemic before vaccines were readily available. Spreading misleading information about vaccines and comparing it to Nazi medical experiments and Holocaust, also having the audacity to say that Jews who perished in Holocaust would have opposed vaccine mandates.
These are just some of the examples that show what an awful person SmElle LeCocq Grumpstrup is.
And BTW, if we go by this facebook ad, Fisherman moved in with Smelle in Dec 2021, literally a year ago and around 3 months before impregnating her

She did move in too fast, she was desperate to shift her rent money towards buying more stuff. With Joe the issue was her personality in a relationship (nagging, narcissism, baby talk, selfish) and with Rick, it was thinking she could marry such a pompous, idiotic, broke loser. Now she's morphed into a radical conservative nutjob who pulled a baby trap because she was so desperate to be a married mother. She's a freak.I do think she rushed moving in with guys tbh.
Asking sincerely, and depressedly, why do you guys think those channels are so huge? What do young (?) women see in them?Those trad wife sahm channels are huge, maybe she isn't as stupid as she seems.
I think it's something different when you realized that women for the last few centuries have not had the stay at home life shoved down their throats (most have had education and career taught to them). It's not as a given that women know how to properly clean, make food from scratch,etc so I think those channels did help educate those who still wound up in that situation of being at home. I think there's lots of somewhat dim women who know they're never going to be career women but maybe learning these skills as a way to feel they mastered something?Asking sincerely, and depressedly, why do you guys think those channels are so huge?

I have never heard Elle talk about God/Faith !I think it's something different when you realized that women for the last few centuries have not had the stay at home life shoved down their throats (most have had education and career taught to them).

I think there's lots of somewhat dim women who know they're never going to be career women but maybe learning these skills as a way to feel they mastered something? Add in religion and they probably think it's the way to serve God. Elle just doesn't quite seem like the audient here though.
I can answer from a new mom's perspective. I started watching more youtube after my first was born. There's nothing to do when you're plugged into an outlet pumping breast milk, and it's lonely. Just you and a little one. I would put on random cleaning, cooking, and mom tip videos. The algorithm finds you. Next thing you know, these videos play in the background while you're cleaning or folding laundry. It's comforting and helps pass the day. I was thankful for the time at home, but man was I happy to go back to work!Asking sincerely, and depressedly, why do you guys think those channels are so huge? What do young (?) women see in them?
I bet Elle and Ginette are not as wealthy as they appear. If Ginette were truly loaded, Elle wouldn't have needed a mortgage for a Vancouver property. Her mother would have pulled out $1-2 million cash on a pad or townhouse or something.Quote and cosign aaaaaalll of this. Elle truly is a dumb bitch. Let's go over some of the people and accounts she follows on Insta, shall we?
@adamsalemortgages - Vancouver mortgage broker (For a home that never was. Instead, she's going to become the Old Woman in the Shoe.)
I honestly wonder if Fishy made her get baptized or if they plan on having her baptized. They had a religious wedding ceremony after all. She never came off as religious to me either—nor antivaxx NOR politically conservative/libertarian—until she started seeing this man.I have never heard Elle talk about God/Faith !
I'm not a mother, but I was raised in an evangelical cult where the education of girls beyond a pretty basic level was heavily discouraged and early marriage was the norm. I left in my teens, but it took me a decade or so to 'catch up' and create an independent life for myself, including getting a degree and eventually a career in law. As far as I can tell, there are two types of these sahm channels:Asking sincerely, and depressedly, why do you guys think those channels are so huge? What do young (?) women see in them?
I always imagined her being religious in her version of 'European' style – a big cathedral ceremony, with a fancy backdrop for the photos, followed by a grand reception and a Mediterranean cruise. I don't think a basic conference room with a golf club buffet was quite what she had in mind...I honestly wonder if Fishy made her get baptized or if they plan on having her baptized.

A big part of it is the appeal of a simple, easy life. It's hard "adulting" and managing a career, dating, balancing work/life/kids/school is difficult! So watching a homemaker who spends her days baking and shopping at Target and cutting up chicken nuggets for the kids and getting Starbucks in her giant SUV is a nice break from real life.Asking sincerely, and depressedly, why do you guys think those channels are so huge?

I would highly recommend reading Sisters in Hate. It profiles 3 women who all became super entrenched and influential in the US white nationalism movement. One of the women in particular started out as a mommy/clean eating/trad life blogger.
