I am so appreciative of my time in academia & the insights I gained as an author, editor, and peer reviewer.

Ooo I have not but it sounds intriguing 👀 adding to my TBR!! ❄️

lol!! Thank you so much for reading 🧡 this was a really interesting piece to knit together re gendered labor & influencing. I’m deep in Mormon momtok so it was fun to trace the history a little bit!!

really well put! it's the promise of that "little bit of money" is often too temping 😿

And 100% re tradwife content, I think while many MMBs/influencers themselves are not aligned w/ extremist ideology (and may even identify as feminists!) the aesthetic or lifestyle brand promoted in these spaces has informed more troubling contemporary mommy influencer cultures

I'm ultimately a bit pessimistic re influencing (blogging or otherwise) as being able to push forward substantive activist coalitions b/c of that tension w/ platforms encouraging fundamentally a consumer-based audience.

Not at all!! I feel like people rarely read these articles so this is such a treat 😭! I definitely agree w/ many of these points you are raising!

100%!! That was my point of entry for the project, trying to explore how we might have gotten to the pre-tradwife & crunchy mom boom of today!!

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it ❄️🧡❄️!!

Boning is under attack! Read @emilylynell.bsky.social on how a sect of ostensibly well-meaning progressives are, in actuality, furthering the far-right's puritanical goals.
