It's always the patriarchal conquerors like the Ancient Romans or the Ancient Greeks that they idolize and never the people like, say, the Picts or the Celts or the Gaul that rebelled against the brutal Roman empire. It's never the Scottish or the Irish heroes who fought back against the British Empire that followed in Rome's footsteps. None of them probably even know who Boudica is.

Ironically, a lot of the stuff you could call "white culture" was burnt at the stake, banned, brutalized, and literally demonized by the Empires that chuds think are so civilized. A lot of pagan culture was lost to time, or warped by Roman 'scholars' for propaganda purposes. If they truly cared about their 'culture', then "Muh Christian trad wife' would be seen as killing the identity of pagan women, rather than an aspiration.

The Celtic (probably one of the oldest) version of Cinderella is about a girl (The Girl Who Tends the Ashes) who is essentially an indentured servant of a landlord tyrant who runs an inn. Like in the other variations, the Prince comes to visit and the woman who runs the inn tries to get him to notice her two daughters, and sends the protag out to gather from the woods. The Prince, to escape the overbearing inn owner, finds The Girl in the woods and treats her like a slave and so she runs deeper into the woods, where she meets a based spae-woman who lives alone and who hatches a plan with her to basically fleece the Prince at his big party with conjured golden clothes.

It rocks tbh, Celtic stuff is full of odd class-conscious tales like those. Probably why the Irish Nationalists had so much success bringing back those old tales.
