An upper-class town or suburb populated by materialistic people; the men are souless strivers and the women who are automatons.
The fictional town of Stepford, Connecticut actually is Darien, Connecticut, so-called by Ira Levin in his novel "The Stepford Wives" as it is near Stamford, Connecticut, thus: a "Step" from Stam-"ford." Darien is the home of many rich executives and professionals who commute to New York City.

"'Stepford' is the fictional upper-class Connecticut town inhabited by men with animatronic spouses in Ira Levin's slyly satirical 'The Stepford Wives.'"

Someone with traditional western religious beliefs, in a professional environment who considers family life to be frozen somewhere in the 1950's. Modern trends only just touch them with- with the man set at the head of the family and the wife idolized but stay at home. Gay marriage, civil partnerships, fake tans, metrosexuals, piercing, any tv program with sex involved- are foreign concepts. They tried hard to find each other, group and then sit in moral judgement over anyone else who doesn't conform to their particular view of the world. In the air you can almost hear " honey I'm home".
That old lady was tutting when I bought this...i think she was a Stepford.
Its just like the Masons here, with one Stepford promoting another.

Some will say H. Clinton, others will say L. Bush
I doubt any would say it for Kerry's wife.

1.) Used to describe a servile, compliant, submissive, spineless wife who happily does her husband's bidding and serves his every whim dutifully.
2.) Can also be used to describe a wife who is cookie-cutter & bland in appearance and behavior. Subscribes to a popular look and dares not deviate from that look.
This term is borrowed from the fictional suburb of Stepford, Connecticut in Ira Levin's 1972 novel, The Stepford Wives, later made into movies (in 1975 and 2004). In the story, men of this seemingly ideal town have replaced their wives with attractive robotic dolls devoid of emotion or thought.

1.) She's such a stepford wife, I've seen her greet her husband at the door after work with a beer and a kiss 4 days in a row!
2.) I just got back from the pta meeting, I've never seen so many stepford wives.
2b.) The SNL skit "Mom Jeans" features women dressed to earn the SW distinction.
