Welcome
Hello, and welcome to /tradfem/- Traditional Femininity. The purpose of this board is to cater to those partaking in a traditional lifestyle or making an attempt to do so in modern times.
Please do not spam.
Please keep foul language to a minimum.
Please keep in mind that this is a SFW board.
Please do not harass others.
Please do not incite inter-board drama between /tradfem/ and other boards.
If you have any ideas on how this board can be improved, including this sticky, feel free to mention it in this thread.
I hope this place can become a comfy, thriving community like it once was in due time.
Advice for men.
Ok, so I assume most of you on here know that half of the posters/lurkers here are disillusioned men from /pol/ (like myself). But do any of the females here have any advice for the males? Like where to find traditional girls, good skills to know, dating , appearance, etc. Any and all help is appreciated!
Redpilling a guy
I often read threads on /pol/ on how best to redpill the women in their lives, and I thought that perhaps we could have one for ourselves.
>be me, longtime cgl and pol user, ready to get married, expecting proposal soon
>bf had liberal prof in college that helped shape some of his current views
>he reads some /pol/ comments over my shoulder
>forever being accused of antisemitism and jokes from him -.-
>try to reason. try to explain white guilt. sjws. happenings
>he plays vid related to drown me out. ;_;
This has been going on for like a year now. To be fair... he is a lot better when I point out a lot of radical feminism and crack jokes about landwhales. Is this just going to take some time or what?? Any other similar stories?
Girls of tradfem
This may sound assholeish but...
Are there attractive women on this board?
And are you young?
Seems like the good looking girls are the biggest targets for the promiscuity culture and most fall into it because the attention they can receive is insane.
Either way, I would marry the shit out of any redpilled lady.
Traditional Parenting
Dearest greetings, Womenfolk of /tradfem/!
I, as a 24 year old male kissless virgin who never had a gf, feel like I am in the perfect position to tell you how you should live your life and parent your children.
For real though, I think the history of traditional parenting isn't discussed in the modern European society, including the Europeans who now live abroad. I guess one could argue the people in Europe adapted an American view of parenting, but that is a different topic entirely. I highly recommend the lecture of this article:
http://ancestralcult.com/2013/03/05/the-role-of-women/
Basically women were preservers, and probably still are, but simply less concious of it, which is why Feminism appeared. I know I wasn't taught many songs and expressions of my region and it somehow shocks my mother I don't know them. Well, how should I? Nothing is more powerful if one wants to change society than attacking the women preserving it.
So the "traditional" in the "traditional Femininity" not only refers to simple world view of women staying at home to cook and clean. In fact loading the term this way is helpful for people who aim to subvert society by taking away the most important part: Traditional Femininity also means preserving the traditions of society through teaching them to the children.
This means parenting has to include teaching the children how to parent children. How to teach them and what they should teach them and why, definitely including that they will have to do the same to their children and so on. Else it simply will be lost. I also personally believe that the increasing anger between generations is the result of this not happening.
What is your take on this?
The proper course.
How not to do tradfem
Don't try to make this board an actual community into which you lure women who want to be more traditional. First of all this is a chan. They won't know how to use the layout and they don't know the culture. Second, chans are not well known to the masses on social media. This is not even the chan, it is a slightly more obscure chan. It's never going to happen.
How to succesfully do tradfem
Use this board as a planning stage for how to launch tradfem as a movement. Pro tip: It's all about the image. Pretty women with braided hair, wearing a pretty summer dress, arranging pretty flowers, baking pies and doing other pretty housewifey things. Learn from JustGirlyThings-tumblr. Lots of image content without too much political ideology, that doesn't trend well. Also babies. Lots and lots of babies. Use those motherly instincts. Also, try not to spam it all of the sudden. Sprinkle it all over the internet little by little and over time the seeds will grow.
Rule of thumb:
tradfem = 1920's look
radfem = 1950's look
Obviously not any kind of strict requirement, more of a general guideline.
Moral Lessons for Today's Girls
Hey there /tradfem/, greetings from /co/
So for the past year or so I've been putting together a pitch bible for a cartoon series aimed at youths, not aimed at either gender but with enough episodes focused on the female protagonists that I wanted to have some useful lessons to impart to them. Clearly the current batch of Aesop tend lean more towards progressive/liberal moral values, and we've seen the effects that those have wrought. I would like to go in a more classical, conservative direction.
So my question to you, /tradfem/, is what are the essential life lessons that would best promote the development of a traditionally feminine personality? Some are obvious, like "don't be a slut", "you don't have to beat men at being men", and "don't be a gold digger". But please, I'd like to hear your ideas on this and perhaps how you would implement them in an episode.
My two cents
Might I offer the people running this some advice?
I see you are trying to get your numbers back up, if you want to avoid drama/raids from outside avoid tripcodes.
Femanons seem to be bad with stuff like that, /cgl/ on halfchan has the same type of nasty drama because of the small userbase and everyone who contributes content having an established identity.
If your userbase can manage that you'll probably work better.
As for outside raids, it's hard to hide from the feminist eye as many lurk /pol/ and related site/boards looking for anything like this to attack.
(kinda ironic that the thing they attack the most is other young women organizing if they don't share their views)
If you say had a board which was about traditional relationships in general then you'd likely get more male users who would probably help defend the place against floods.
Though I understand the desire to have something female focused, as men tend to get the majority of floorspace in conservative talking spots.
Also, the chans in general don't have any sort of functioning system for lonely anons to find eachother.
/soc/ was meant to fill that role, and for the first weeks it was largely what you'd think.
Shy conservative types, NEETS, general social misfits looking for dates.
Of course all the casuals from /b/ who mainly come from offsite flooded the place and now /soc/ on halfchan is more or less another branch of the tinder hookup culture.
If your board fostered the reputation of being able to help traditional anons get relationships, you'd probably get some very staunch users willing to defend this place.
As a male anon leaning conservative, I have a sinking feeling that only a conservative femanon would ever truly understand me as a person.
My worldview, my sensibilities, and it's likely that only a femanon would have the same hobbies and tastes along with those views.
Conservative women irl don't get a lot of my interests, and the girls that do get my interests are not conservative.
Anyway just some thoughts, hope all goes well.

>tfw every girl I know is a disgusting slag or obese
>tfw none of them even want kids
>tfw every single guy I've got to know on bro level only wants a wife and kids
>tfw feminism is ruining everything
>tfw the only "good girl" I knew turned out to be a coalburner
For the love of all that's holy I hope that this board 1, isn't a bunch of neck beards RPing, and 2, grows, If not, we're doomed.
is it too late to start?
How can I be more like you girls, or is it too late to start now? I already have a boyfriend (fiance) so I'm not worried about attracting a man, I just want to be a top-tier wife and some day mother he can be really proud of... He says he likes all my flaws but I know deep down I know I'm a degenerate weeaboo and not as good of a woman as I could be.
/tradfem/ praise
Hello /tradfem/
I would like to thank you for taking this initiative. The world is in dire need of expression from your kind, and I know you are still many, in the face of the destructive social engineering at hand. I - no, we, traditional males, are grateful to your persistence in the proper ways for you celebrate everything the female form is about. You are an anchor, a motivation, a symbol of the glory of mankind. To see so much calls to the interest of literature, rather than drugs and sex, fills my heart with joy.
So let me say it loud, thank you.

How to redpill more grills?
It's not a secret that /pol/ and the alternate-right/far-right is 99.9% male. The nationalist movements during the early 20th century had strong female followings, so this can't be blamed on inherent female nature. This needs to change. Any ideas on how to unleash a propaganda machine on tumblr or other female-centric websites?
The traditional family
Ladies, this image sums up the perfect family.
It is symbolic of the family and their roles. The ideal father is a protector and provider for his family, the woman is provided for by the father and nurtures the children, the children grow up to be mothers and fathers.
To be a traditional woman is not to be a shut in prude. But its also not a whore either, its important to be both loving and friendly while also modest and wholesome, it is hard to balance the two extremes, but the same battle you will fight anywhere in life. If you want to attract a traditional man you will not necessarily have to be beautiful but modest and nurturing. Many western whores today will never be mothers because of their enormous sense of entitlement, and ego. This will make them unhappy later in life while if you have succeeded in becoming a traditional woman you will have humbled yourself into finding the right male and becoming a mother.
Good luck ladies
Hitler's Poem dedicated to his mother
THE MOTHER
When your mother has grown older,
When her dear, faithful eyes
no longer see life as they once did,
When her feet, grown tired,
No longer want to carry her as she walks -
Then lend her your arm in support,
Escort her with happy pleasure.
The hour will come when, weeping, you
Must accompany her on her final walk.
And if she asks you something,
Then give her an answer.
And if she asks again, then speak!
And if she asks yet again, respond to her,
Not impatiently, but with gentle calm.
And if she cannot understand you properly
Explain all to her happily.
The hour will come, the bitter hour,
When her mouth asks for nothing more.
-Adolf Hitler, 1923
Uncle Adolf wasn't that bad after all was he?
>inb4 he had 6 gorrilion freudian complexes because he loves his mother
Etiquette Thread
Now that we've become a little more established I think its high time we have an etiquette thread before things get to out of hand.
Posting some of my favorites from Emily Post.
Feel free to find and share either traditions and customs you agree with and enjoy, or alternatively disagree with and want to poke some fun at. Questions are welcome too.
>Disagree with does not mean we are inviting our liberation from the patriarchy, so no /tumblr/ shills please
Family Hierlooms and Keepsakes
As you may already know, heirlooms are tokens of antiques or jewelery that are passed down the family generations as a tradition.
Do you have any heirlooms /tradfem/?
If so, feel free to either take pictures of it or describe it to us. Is there a story behind it? How many generations has it been passed down?
If not, would you ever consider starting a new tradition and passing one down yourself? What would it be? Describe it to us as well.
