Short skirts, knee-high socks, white blouses: Girls' school uniform items are widely used as costumes in pornographic videos. As students experience harassment, a group wants to change that.
The article says these girls are 15yo, so not Gen Z but Gen Alpha. But I kinda agree. While I have massive respect for how involved in activism the youth are, I’ve seen a sharp turn towards the puritan side, the age of ‘sex, drugs and rock and roll’ is over. The sexuality that once was liberating and empowering is now objectifying, but that swinging is always how society moves forward.
It’s the right wing misinformation that pulls them into extremism and puritan thinking. Manosphere for the boys, tradwife for the girls. It’s incredibly effective.
I don’t think it’s even that, this is a generation where without concent their lives have been recorded online since before they were even born (parents posting baby names or gender hopes on facebook, etc). They are forced by social and economic pressures to merge their online life with real life, and are constantly monitored attacked by adults and other students for literally anything. Being a dumb edgelord on facebook when you’re 12 can now lose you future college or job opportunities. I think the whole generation has panopticon PTSD where the only way to ensure your archived past wont haunt you is to avoid anything perceived as cringe or controversial, and in turn enforce those rigid social norms on others.
I’m more aware of the fucked up and abusive manosphere.
Is “tradwife” actually a thing?
I mean, if literally EVERYONE was a tradwife, would it be a bad thing?
I think if everyone was in the manosphere we would be fucked.
It’s not bad on a surface level, but they use that in with people to push strict gender roles and puritan beliefs regarding sex. I’m technically a trad wife, somehow I don’t think they’d see my perspective as cohesive with their ideology.

Then the real problem is the exposure of minors to so much porn that they would have an opinion on this.
We taught them this, didn’t we… 😬
