"I'm a traditional wife who doesn't work or pay bills - I think all women should care for the home while their husbands work because equal marriages are unnatural and unhappy"
The woman below is of Arab origin and Arab societies are very traditional so her decisions are not so surprising in that context.
It does however happen elsewhere also. When I married my third wife I was already well-off so told her she could give up work and become a full-time wife and mother. She leapt at it. She is a very confident and capable person but had always thought that the traditional female role was a good one. She now looks after me in my old age
A woman who believes that equal relationships are 'not natural' has revealed that her husband gives her a percentage of his earnings every month so she doesn't have to work.
Linda Andrade, from California, appeared on a recent episode of Truly's Love Don't Judge to explain her lifestyle.
The 23-year-old proudly stated how she has 'never paid a bill in her life' before declaring that bills are 'irrelevant to her.'
Linda, who once dreamed of being a doctor, explained that while partner Ricky, 27, is raking in a six-figure salary she stays home to cook and clean.
The couple, who first met after Linda joined a gym where Ricky worked as a health coach, have been together for nearly eight years.
They tied the knot when Linda was just 19 and she quickly fell into the role of being a stay-at-home wife.
'He was making so much money that I didn't need to work and it was making more sense for me to stay home,' she said,
Ricky claimed that he makes more than $150,000 each month working as a real estate investor who also has investments in stocks and cryptocurrency.
He revealed that the couple 'have a traditional marriage' where he makes the money and Linda 'takes care of the home.'
The jet-setting couple has three homes - an apartment in Dubai, a condo in Orange County and a house in Las Vegas.
Linda, who was originally born in Jordan but relocated to the US when she was just two years old, said: 'I believe that modern relationships that do 50-50 are unhappy. It's not natural.
'I have never paid a bill in my life. I don't even know how to pay the mortgage... Bills are so irrelevant. Honestly, they're irrelevant to me.'
She continued: 'I personally love doing household chores because I love taking care of my husband...
'I spoil him, I cook him his favorite meals and I make sure the house is clean. I hire a maid for the cleaning for the most part.'
Linda said it had once been her dream to be a doctor 'but as of right now my focus is on my marriage.'
She continued: 'It does take a lot of trust in a relationship for you to give up your dreams and give up everything to take care of a man but I don't have any fears about that.'
In return, Ricky gives Linda a percentage of his earnings each month.
The social media star now regularly flaunts her wealth online where she has faced fierce criticism over the relationship dynamic and has been branded as a 'gold digger' and 'spoiled brat' who 'brings nothing to the table.'
The couple have faced a slew of hate including claims her husband is going to leave, cheat and abuse her.
She has also received questions about when she is going to 'stop spending her husband's money.'
But Linda insists that the pair met before Ricky had money and is 'not taking him for all he is worth.'
Linda has regularly hit back at the claims via her TikTok account - with one particular video asserting: 'When people say I'm dumb for relying on a man for my livelihood but they rely on a job for theirs?'

Why don't the British boast about their country like Americans?
Phillip Watson
I think the British mentality can be summed up by this Sir Terry Pratchett quote from his book Night Watch
"Tom?’
'Yes, Clive?’
'Have you ever sung the national anthem?’
'Oh, lots of times, sir.’
'I don’t mean officially.’
'You mean just to show I’m patriotic? Good gods, no. That would be a rather odd thing to do,’ said the captain.
'And how about the flag?’
'Well, obviously I salute it every day, sir.’
'But you don’t wave it, at all?’ the major enquired.
'I think I waved a paper one a few times when I was a little boy. Patrician’s birthday or something. We stood in the streets as he rode by and we shouted “Hurrah!”’
'Never since then?’
'Well, NO, Clive,’ said the captain, looking embarrassed. 'I’d be very worried if I saw a man singing the national anthem and waving the flag, sir. It’s really a thing foreigners do.’
'Really? Why?’
'WE don’t need to show WE’RE patriotic, sir. I mean, this is Ankh-Morpork. We don’t have to make a big fuss about being the best, sir. We just KNOW.’"
British people are innately suspicious of tub thumping jingoism and cry your eyes out patriotism with lots of flag waving.
As seen above we feel it is rather vulgar.

*********************************************Donald Trump: I like the idea of a female running mate
I am rather besotted with Governor Noem so I really like this idea
Donald Trump has said he likes the idea of having a female running-mate for the election next year and will consider the governor of South Dakota, who has appeared on stage with him.
His remarks in a television interview on Sunday put fresh attention on Kristi Noem, whom Trump has described as a “warrior for American values”.
Noem’s allies cast her appearance beside Trump as an audition, showcasing the image of a potential Republican presidential ticket. Behind the stage, some supporters held “Trump-Noem 2024” signs. The Rapid City Journal said the governor teased the crowd with the idea. The newspaper reported that she said people had asked if Trump would name her, pausing before adding ”. . . the most popular and favourite governor”.
Trump’s team has deferred questions about his potential running-mate until after he has secured the nomination. Asked in a lengthy interview on the Sunday NBC show Meet the Press if he was leaning towards selecting a woman, he said: “I like the concept but we’re going to pick the best person. But I do like the concept, yes.”
He said Noem had been “a great governor” and “she gave me a very full-throated endorsement, a beautiful endorsement actually”. He added: “And you know, [South Dakota has] been a very good state for me. And certainly she’d be one of the people I’d consider, or for something else maybe.”

Pitting modern secular beliefs against the entire Bible
That faith ledership should be by men only is made clear in both the Old and New Testaments. It's not a view common to all religions. Many pagan religions actually worshipped women. But it is a marker of the Judeo-Christan faith as recorded in the Bible.
So you either believe the Bible is right or not. If not, you are just a modern pagan, not a Christian. Christ himself was most energetic in preaching from the Old Testament so there is no doubt where the loyalties of his folowers should lie
There is no doubt that women can and do good works both within and outside the church and a division of labour between men and women is very common. Why must a faith-based division be condemned? The opposition is in fact religious: Pitting a Leftist equality religion against the religion of the Bible
The claim below that Bible-based Anglicans are obsolescent is the big joke. The Sydney diocese hosts around a third of the nation's Anglicans. They are thriving. It is the secularists who are obsolescent. As ever, the faith of the Bible is powerfully attractive to people. The secularists have nothing compared to it. The Sydney diocese is having the last laugh
One of the oddest, little-known contradictions in this country will be occurring in Christchurch St Laurence, on the fringes of the Sydney CBD, this weekend, quietly and with little fanfare.
The most powerful woman in the Australian Anglican Church, the Archbishop of Perth Kay Goldsworthy, will be preaching in the Sydney Diocese – a place where women are not allowed to be priests or lead congregations that contain men. Here, Goldsworthy can’t be an archbishop, a bishop or even just a priest once her plane’s wheels hit the tarmac in Sydney – she can only operate on the lowest rung of the clergy, as a deacon.
If she were to fly here when a bloke was being consecrated as bishop or inaugurated as archbishop, she could not take her rightful part alongside her male colleagues, but would sit in the pews. She can’t wear her funky purple episcopal robes, either.
It’s so weird, and wildly offensive to female clergy around the country. You are less, you are different, you must step back, here, you must submit to men.
A private protocol – of which I have obtained a copy - was drawn up to manage this situation after all bishops, including the females, were accidentally invited to the consecration of a male bishop in St Andrew’s Cathedral, Sydney, in 2014. Awkwardly, then Archbishop Glenn Davies needed to uninvite all the women.
Davies pointed out that these bishops must operate as deacons in Sydney, with an important caveat: they cannot contravene Sydney Diocese’s “understanding of the restrictions of the apostle in 1 Timothy 2:12.” This verse, reflective of the patriarchal culture of its time, reads: “I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.”
Sydney Diocese is now operating under a kind of gender apartheid, where women operate under a different set of rules, and need to submit to men, and male authority, or be ostracised. Some have gone to be ordained elsewhere, and very many have left. It’s pure geographical absurdity.
A spokesman for Sydney Diocese advises me this protocol is still in place.
The Sydney diocese has fought long and hard, at great expense, in synods, courts and commissions for more than half a century, to stop women becoming priests. It has come to define it, and been their symbol of doctrinal purity, a source of internal pride if occasional public embarrassment.
When he was archbishop, Glenn Davies continued to hold the line against women priests. Like Peter Jensen before him, and Raffel after, he has been a leader in GAFCON – the Global Anglican Future Conference, which aims to counter the liberalising tendencies of church leaders who have accepted women as priests, same-sex marriage and been relaxed about divorce.
The Sydney diocese has actively promoted and supported “church planting” in other Anglican dioceses for nearly two decades – setting up churches in other parts of the country that are theoretically independent but closely aligned with their conservative ethos, thumbing their noses at the geographical differences they enforce for women, ignoring the protocols of the local bishop.
In those four decades, a lot of women, especially those of a modern, feminist bent, have left the church over this nonsense. Yes, I know there are women who comply with this doctrine of headship, who claim to thrive under its hierarchy, but most just think the whole thing is nuts.
Some church leaders try to shove it under the rug when visitors come by. But it matters; the Anglican church runs schools, aged care homes, counts three million odd Australians as members. There are many fine people there doing important work. As Keith Mason, KC, a retired judge who has struggled for the equality of men and women in the Diocese for many years told me: “The idea that you can be ‘separate but equal’ was a terrible and deceiving lie in South Africa. It doesn’t work for an Australian Church claiming to be modelled on the teachings of Jesus either.”
Did you know the Sydney synod – the parliament of the church – was sitting this week? No, nor did most people. Once it was front page news, now it’s barely reported on, barely discussed outside the church. Many people have, quite simply, forgotten that this is going on, that women are treated this way. This pure, distilled sexism once provoked outrage, now it is seen as absurd, archaic and inexplicable. Surely undervaluing and silencing women for decades, in both flamboyant and secretive ways, simply underwrites your own obsolescence.
