That was the title of an email a member received recently. The person went on to berate them, because they reposted a not-to-recent post from this journal on Facebook. It led them to our journal and was the reason for the unflattering email. Why should this be an issue anyway?
We, at The (real) Stepford Wives Association, would be pleased to have our daughters follow in our footsteps. Often we do worry they might be misled by shiny promises of becoming the next CEO or even political leader. We do not believe that women cannot be leaders, we simply believe they should not be leaders and support the men in their lives.
More and more women are learning how fulfilling allowing a man to lead can be. We have learned while we might possess many of the skill sets to be in control, we aren't comfortable being in powerful positions and crumble under the pressure. Men, we understand are much more comfortable with power, and do not crumble so easily.
We at The (real) Stepford Wives Association believe strongly that female submission isn't horrible and being labeled a Stepford wife isn't a burden. It's what we were born to do.
