Gen Z women are rejecting the decades-long feminist push that told them family comes second to careers or ‘fame’ and ‘independence’ at all costs.

Fox News host Lara Trump breaks down the new reality playing out among young women.

The clip highlights a fresh EduBirdie study showing young women ranking their dream lives, with the “tradwife” path—stable marriage, children, and a focus on home and family—coming in at a commanding 47 percent. The old “girlboss” dream of luxury, money, and solo hustle scores just 23 percent.

Trump laid it out clearly on air. “For so long, there was this feminist movement that tried to push and tell us that we should all just kind of put aside wanting to start a family. Don’t worry about getting married, don’t worry about having kids. You should solely focus on your career.”

She continued, noting what so many women have experienced firsthand: “And I know so many women—and you probably do too… who got to a certain age and realized wait a minute. This is something I actually want. In many cases they either had huge struggle to have children or they couldn’t do it at all and they were left absolutely devastated.”

In a stunning plot twist that has sociologists clutching their latte cups, Gen Z women are apparently hitting the pause button on the decades-long girlboss hustle and rediscovering the quaint notion of family—because nothing says feminist breakthrough like embracing what your grandma called “the good old days.” Thanks to an EduBirdie study, freshly paraded on Fox News by Lara Trump with all the gravitas of a TED Talk on breathing, we learn that nearly half of these young women are opting for tradwife chic over luxe solo grind—a choice described not as regression but as “real life.” Apparently, the decades of feminist cheerleading for career-first independence have met the harsh glare of biological clocks and emotional wreckage, proving once again that when it comes to life plans, it turns out hustle culture might just have limits. Who knew?
