In a marriage/relationship, are traditional gender roles wrong, if you both are happy and prefer it that way? How would a feminist view that? Would they see it as not possible, or due to the patriarchy, or brainwashing? i haven't heard any good arguements against traditional gender roles, when both people consent.

I’m a feminist and a housewife. I have a pretty traditional marriage except my husband and I are equals in our relationship. He doesn’t get the final say in things just because he has a penis.

@AnneWimsey has an excellent point.
More to that is; Feminism is supposed to be about women being free to choose their own paths. You can still have a matriachy and still follow the old gender roles, but it would be better for both to just fulfill roles they are best suited to based on ability not gender.

A " feminist", or anyone else for that matter, would think it was None of Their Business! You?
