I never wanted marriage, now I spend 8 hours a day cooking & cleaning for my man – trolls say it’s their worst nightmare
A YOUNG MUM and full-time housewife has been slammed online for her 'traditional' lifestyle.
Bailey McPherson, 25, never even dreamed of getting married or having children as she wanted to focus on her career - but it all changed when she met her hubby.
The pair met six years ago on a dating app, and now she and Zachary, 32, have a three-year-old daughter Noah.
Bailey and her man decided they would embrace traditional gender roles after getting hitched, which has led to her being trolled daily on social media.
Zachary goes out to work while Bailey stays indoors being a homemaker for eight hours a day.
Bailey, from Florida, US, said: "I work best in our home and treat it as if it is my business. For the hours that my husband is at work, I am also working a full day at home taking care of everything.
"I never thought that I would have a life like this because I was focused on my career aspirations before I met my husband, however, I now take pride and see the beauty in my role as the homemaker despite the fact I get hateful comments on my social media at least once a day.
"It means that I am always with our daughter too and never miss out on any moments, unlike if I was to work outside of the home."
Now Bailey stays home to take care of their daughter, clean the house, and cook for the family, which she says gets her hateful comments every day across her social media.
Common examples of comments Bailey gets are, 'I could never settle for being a house slave' or 'You’ll have nothing when he leaves you' and 'Go get a job, this isn’t the 1950s'.

Another chimed in adding: "This sound like my worst nightmare."
But the mum isn't too fussed by the haters as she loves being a homemaker for her husband and daughter and sticks to a regimented routine to keep the house in order.
She wakes up before her husband and daughter, prepares breakfast, then homeschools Noah, completes her cleaning tasks and cooks lunch for herself and her toddler.
The family then enjoy some quality time together when Zachary arrives home from work, eat dinner together, prepares for the following day before going to bed.
Bailey says she spends around eight hours a day on cooking and cleaning, as well as taking care of her daughter.
The young mum went from focusing on her law enforcement career to becoming a stay-at-home mum after they moved states away from their family, which led to her embracing the homemaker lifestyle.
She now takes pride in her role as a tradwife while her husband goes out to work and earns a living to support the family.
Negative comments come in droves at the mum who is slammed for not having a real job and being stuck in the 1950s.
One user commented asking, 'What are you going to do if your man up and leaves you? No education or career'.
Another common jibe she gets is, 'Go get a job this isn’t the 1950s'.
hitting back at the haters, Bailey added: "I work with everything on a schedule. On certain days of the week, I do certain jobs, as well as also daily cleaning jobs.
"For example, on Tuesdays, I clean the bathrooms and my daily cleaning jobs would be cleaning the kitchen and doing laundry.
"I think that people don’t like my lifestyle because it doesn’t coincide with our current societal norms.
"The best thing about being a tradwife is that I don't miss any moments with my daughter. If I was going out to work every day, I'd miss so many things.
"I hear this all the time from my working mum friends.
"However, it can also be overwhelming being around all the time, so it's important to make time yourself too.
"I find moments during the day for myself where I read the bible.
"I don't get lost in what our culture and social media tells us is the correct way of doing this. There is so much beauty in being able to be at home.
"Most of my friends now are older women, because I just align with them more. I have a totally different life now to the friends I had that were my own age.

"I don't come from this lifestyle at all - my mum and grandmother worked full time and I respect women who do.
"I think it's ideal if mothers can stay home to look after the kids if it's possible, but I understand this isn't always the case."
