Released 50 years ago, The Stepford Wives eerily reflects the gender issues still plaguing society today.
They seemingly exist merely to keep their houses clean, their kitchens stocked, and their husbands sexually satisfied.
But the Mens Association ofThe Stepford Wivesdoesnt offer the women of the town that choice.
Whats striking is how that idea still resonates 50 years later in a movie likeCompanion.
The rationale is exactly the same in 2025 as it was in 1975.
And like Stepford, its a tale that seems to remain eerily, eternally timely.
Real-Life Stepford Wives?
Are these women truly happy in their traditional roles in the household?
At least its a choice they seemingly get to make themselves… for now.
Reproductive freedom is being denied and even criminalized across large swaths of the U.S.
The Stepford Wives can be streamed on Tubi and Pluto TV.
