Hi guys! What’s up? Still feeling the Monday blues? We’re too! But we’re fighting it by reading some interesting news from the weekend. And, we’ve found something very interesting to share with you.
But, before we get started, let’s give you the task of the day:
📌 Explore a new part of your city or town that you haven’t been to before. It could be a hidden park, a quirky café, or an interesting street.
Exploring local areas can deepen your connection to your community. It helps you appreciate the unique aspects of where you live and can make you feel more rooted and engaged.
How problematic is this?
The "tradwife" movement is having a serious moment on TikTok, and leading the charge is Estee Williams, a 26-year-old stay-at-home wife from Virginia who’s all about snagging a rich, masculine man.
Estee’s got some hot takes on how to land yourself a wealthy provider, and she’s not afraid to share them.
First up, ladies, stop chasing men—let them chase you! As Estee says, "We’re attracting a masculine man, not hunting one down like it’s Black Friday."
Secondly, don’t get too comfy in your yoga pants—Estee’s got some wardrobe advice that might make you rethink your love for Lululemon. According to her, if you want to catch a man’s eye, swap those stretchy pants for jeans, dresses, or skirts.
Estee’s also got some tips on how to be more “feminine, fit, and friendly.” Translation? Smile more, talk less, and channel your inner 1950s housewife.
And for the final touch? Embrace those “feminine jobs” and steer clear of anything that might make you look too bossy. After all, we wouldn’t want to scare off any potential providers with all that pesky independence, now would we?
While the idea of dressing up like the movies and doing nothing got our attention, we can’t overlook how disturbing Estee’s advice is.
Williams champions the notion that women should focus on their looks and charm rather than their ambitions. Because, obviously, the pinnacle of a woman’s life should be snagging a rich guy, right? Forget mutual respect and emotional connection—let’s just treat women like trophies to be won.
And let’s not overlook the classism—after all, the only thing that really matters in a relationship is how much money your partner has. Personal compatibility and shared values are clearly just minor details. Williams’ advice to conform to traditional gender roles, like dressing in 1950s housewife attire and sticking to “feminine” jobs, is just the cherry on top.
Who needs individuality and career aspirations when you can fit neatly into a retro mold?
We don’t mean to undermine someone’s wishes, but to use a public platform to preach such values ruins the work done by feminists over the years.
Everything you need to know about Olympics 2028
The 2028 Los Angeles Olympics are officially on the horizon, with the opening ceremony kicking off on July 14, 2025. The action will spread across some major LA spots, including the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and SoFi Stadium, running until July 30. The Paralympics will take over from August 15 to 27, and events will also be held at Crypto.com Arena, the Convention Center, LA Football Club Stadium, Galen Center, and Microsoft Theater. This will be LA’s third time hosting the Olympics—previously in 1932 and 1984.
For the next Olympics, get ready for some new and exciting sports! The 2028 Games will feature cricket, flag football, lacrosse, squash, and baseball-softball. Cricket is making a comeback after over a century with a proposed T20 tournament. However, breakdancing won’t make it past Paris in 2024. Boxing’s future is still up in the air due to a spat with the International Boxing Association.
In a bid to keep things green, LA is planning a "no-car Games," which means they’ll be ramping up public transportation and bringing in over 3,000 buses. Mayor Karen Bass is pushing for reduced traffic by managing work hours and encouraging remote work. Key venues include SoFi Stadium for swimming and Crypto.com Arena for gymnastics.
So, that’s it for today. Let’s meet again tomorrow 👋 Till then, stay curious, and play dress up, maybe? 👀
