Hey Loves, Welcome Back to Joi’s Journey of Perception!

I came discovered this video that triggered an important discussion. A lot of women aspire to be trophy wives from a young age. They only see the glitz and shine, but there are other disadvantages to being a trophy wife. So, today, I’d want to write a piece about why you should have your own trophy. But before I begin, make sure you’re subscribed and following for more information on this topic. I also send out posts to those who have subscribed, so you won’t miss out on anything.

Why it’s bad to be considered a trophy

Women used to be expected to merely sit around and be attractive. They were merely there to provide entertainment. Women are starting to establish themselves on their own now that circumstances are changing, and being a man’s trophy isn’t as alluring. Being a prize for a man entails him objectifying you. Men’s praise means more to him than you being his. And that’s something you shouldn’t be proud of.

Being placed on a pedestal

The video also discussed the concept of being put on a pedestal. Being put on a pedestal is not fun, as I discovered the hard way. My ex-husband put me on a pedestal for a period, and I wasn’t permitted to leave the box he had put me in. I was expected to sit there and put on a pretty face while he treated me whatever he wanted. Being placed in that situation is not enjoyable for anyone. The man in the video put his wife on a pedestal because she was attractive. He grew tired of her opulence after a while and desired to focus on anything else.

In the End

That video contains a wealth of information. He also wanted her to sit around and look lovely while he worked. Which was unfortunate for her because if anything went wrong with our relationship, she’d have to fend for herself. The money kept her incarcerated. Too. He was only interested in her appearance, to the point that if her appearance changed, he would be dissatisfied. There are so many things to learn, and it’s not cool to put pressure on one another for your happiness.

We must stop this ridiculous trope from existing and start loving the women we marry and allowing them to be the women God made them to be.
