To be Amish or not to be?

There is something about me that is so attracted to the Amish, Memonite, Huterite and Conservative Jewish Cultures.
It has nothing to do with religious believes as I'm sure I don't share the beliefs, but there is something about the routine, fellowship -- and absolutism that appeals to me.
I would be the first woman to freak out if RFR said "you can't" do something -- but the idea of societal prescribed norms for men and woman are less offensive to me. I'm not sure why.
The idea of what my role was, what my day looks like, who I was -- is really appealing to me.
I think this is really un-Feminist of me, but still true. Nonetheless.
