Housewives

Type: Concept

As of November 2026, Housewives has been mentioned in one podcast episode on The Toast (Feb 2026). Used to suggest Ryan Murphy's motivations and grudges, specifically regarding a Real Housewives figure being 'erased' from the JFK story.

A housewife is a woman whose role is running or managing her family's home—housekeeping, which may include caring for her children; cleaning and maintaining the home; making, buying and/or mending clothes for the family; buying, cooking, and storing food for the family; buying goods that the family needs for everyday life; partially or solely managing the family budget—and who is not employed outside the home. The male equivalent is the househusband.
