It was 2008 when the movie "Fireproof" came out, a very popular pro-Christian film wherein a firefighter s having marital problems. His wife is on the edge of divorce with him, and is contemplating cheating with a doctor at the hospital where she works.
The movie isn't a bad film or overly cheesy as such, but it is unrealistic of female nature, and it lays out the archetype every Tradcon wants: the gynocentric servant.
I would recommend watching it for free somewhere to see the points I made so you are innoculated against such propaganda.
@DoubleD
It's bad propaganda. It's also unrealistic about male nature.
The entire message of the movie is that men have to put a facade, completely transform themselves into someone else who sacrifices all his desires for nothing in order to get no reward: to keep his cheating wife from divorce raping him.
Men who have no personality, no ambition, no competence and no guts are nothing more than blue pill weaklings and everyone hates them.
I haven't seen the film, but what you describe @Zeb was the dominant social programming for men and boys at that time. It was the Gen-X life script constantly rammed down our throats with films just like that.
Thank God the internet has cut the legs out from all that bullshit, but it's come at a high cost.
Just from personal observation I'd say it's destroyed roughly 60% of fathers and families from my generation, and I'm including men of ambition, competence and guts.
