Eh. I'm ambivalent on "traditional" women. To borrow a phrase from a friend of mine, a traditional woman arguing with a feminist is like one slave driver telling another that they're holding the whip wrong.

Actually, I find some traditional women quite interesting but
your definition of traditional pretty narrow minded.

My grandmother was traditional but although she went to church she never lofted religion on anyway or talked about Jesus.

Having a spontaneous personality is not a function of ones politicts!!!

I've found cool females who are both liberated and relatively conservative. Spontaneity is however a bit more common in people who are young and have not had all the hardships of life.

In terms of both life styles. Both have advantages and disadvantages. Sometimes it depends on what's important to you. Alot of women do find their priorities change over time.

The advantages to liberated lifestyle:
1) flexibility
2) if you stay in marriage its because you want to not because you have to.
3) career full fillment. Women are certainly as able as men in most jobs and more able in others.
4) In marriage, sometimes men and women have more to talk. (Then again, my aunt and grandmother were both traditional mothers and still were well informed and educated. They involved themselves in actitivites like art and drama.)

Disadvantages:
1) typically children not raised by parents. Less quality care. Note however that a liberal family where the HUSBAND is the care given mitigates this too
2) highly stressed household with both working and lots of conflicts related to money. Tons of conflicts related to conflciting career goals, sharing things like cars and the like
3) society has lots an awful lot of volunteer work by talented women with no other outlets to channel their creativity and drive. Little things like the mom who takes all the kids around are gone.
4) wealth more concentrated in the hands of the few since liberated families tend to have fewer children and more money.
5) higher probability of divorce for perfectly workable mariages (not talking abuse her)

PLEASE NOTE:
LOTS OF FAMILIES ARE IN BETWEEN BEING LIBERAL AND CONSERVATIVE. Beware of absolutes. They are the exception rather than the rule.

Because that's what makes them " traditional" Jesus(Religion/Faith) Marriage, and making babies. Yep being a homebody type. Not exactly the most exciting life. But not everyone is a rocking party girl. Or career minded Alpha women, Or adventure seeking world traveller. Some women are just housewife's and are happy with that. Nothing wrong with that, but I agree being traditional is Dull, Boring, etc.

Traditional women are not boring. And I highly doubt traditional women think about Jesus(PBUH*). I think they are the smartest women in the world because they accept their traditional roles of taking care of the house, bringing up the children and taking care of the husband. They don't concern themselves with polotics or the government. If God had intended for women to work outside the home, He would have made them first and Adam(pbuh*) second. But instead He made Adam(PBUH*) first and then Eve so that women could have protection.

When one is mature enough to understand that there is more to life than cheap thrills, they will find traditional women to not be boring at all. Marriage, if it is done correctly, is the "final frontier" in life...and traditional women make the best wives.

it's cause they are so sheltered from the real world they focus on only what is in the family, jesus, marriage and procreation have been around forever so that is what they know. that's what hasn't changed much in the last decades and centuries. traditionalists are hanging on to the little bit of the world that barely changes, but now, in the modern world where evrything changes, they don't know much else and seem boring to our generatio. many mid-20's women get out of college and find a steady love. their priorities change from partying, style and mony to the focus of someone in the long range. they aren't boring but narrow minded. they don't assotiate with others because they feel different. try to get them in the mainstream, might be hard though, most get stubborn and cling to their beliefs. i know a few, and i'm a student who loves technology and style, i get sick of their little subject matter they know and love, their morals are also really old-fashioned.

I don't think it has to be boring. People can find happiness in whatever they are doing.

Yes, amazingly, too many of them still exist..the rate of women staying in abusive relationships with men continues to be very high even in this so called age of enlightenment. In my opinion, we are still living in primitive times with regards to women's rights, racial equality, poverty and many other social issues.
However, there are many exciting feminist women as well...so things are changing. Look at Nancy Pelosi! Also, 50% of the students in medical schools, (doctors in training) are women! That has got to change things even though some of them will suck up to male chauvinist ways.
get with it women! Get a backbone, Stand up for your rights...you AND your children will live a far happier life.
Thanks for the question! :)
