The expression “Stepford Wife” is used to describe a woman who does not behave or think in an independent way, always following the accepted rules of society and obeying her husband without thinking. Origin: From the title of the book and a movie “The Stepford Wives”, in which a group of women who behave in this way are in fact robots.
