The election of President Donald Trump put at least half of America into deep analysis. How did the former president pull off this election coup, especially as statistic after statistic had shown that the younger generations were more liberal than their elders?
The studies were wrong. Trump was able to win over Gen Z men in an unprecedented way. Many analysts were quick to claim that conservative podcasters and influencers — notably Joe Rogan, Andrew Tate, and the Paul brothers — were responsible for encouraging young men to vote for Trump.
Now that conservatives have been successful in winning over young men, they’re changing course just slightly — and looking to influence Gen Z women.
The Push For Traditional Womanhood
Conservatives have begun to create magazines and brands to further push for what they see as more traditional forms of womanhood. Often, this results in female conservative influencers publicly praising men and telling their fellow Gen Z women that they shouldn’t be feminists or attack the patriarchy.
There’s even a magazine that has become something of a talking point online. Evie Magazine is like a conservative Cosmopolitan. However, their intimate advice about relationships is not for single women in America. It’s for married women only.
Of course, there are also the TikTok tradwives, many of whom live on farms and homeschool their kids. There are always kids. Ballerina Farm’s Hannah Neeleman, who graced the cover of Evie Magazine recently, has eight kids and is a much-followed TikTok influencer.
These influencers and magazines all push the same agenda: Gen Z women are sick and tired of having to waste their lives away on jobs that don’t make them happy. So, why not quit that job and be a stay-at-home wife and mother?
Even the Trump administration has been pushing American women to have more babies. Neither the White House nor these influencers mention the fact that many families cannot afford to be stay-at-home mothers or have more kids, even if they want to.

Young Women Remain Liberal
These influencers have also been known to attack body positivity, individualism, and any woman who doesn’t look like an ideal traditional wife, with prairie dresses and all. Though many women may scoff at these social media posts and Evie articles, especially once they reach the insulting comments many have made about women who aren’t stick thin, the reach of these influencers cannot be ignored.
The conservative agenda is clear. They want to make Gen Z women, who are notoriously more liberal than their male peers and some of their elders, more conservative. So far, that has yet to be seen. However, if these influencers are anywhere near as successful as their male colleagues were in the 2024 presidential election, then we all might have something to worry about.
