William, It was really nothing ?
Some Girls are Bigger Than Others.
Iāve wanted to create a thread on this subject, but i just dont think its going to come out to mean anything, given the relatively feminist perspective most of this forum holds.
I wanted to discuss the term āman upā or ābe a manā and how 90% of the time, its used to berate a man into doing something against his own self-interest, for the betterment of a woman.
How it relates to what I quoted is because men are expected to step up for the benefit of women in many situations, even if the woman is a stranger.
Its hard to be grateful for something you expect.
At best you get an attitude of āthanks for doing what you were supposed to doā.
Which goes back to the point I was making earlier about a general lack of gratitude.
In short: I 100% agree with what youāre saying.
My brother-in-law actually told his wifeās parents that he intentionally makes a mess when painting so that she will do it and he wonāt have to. Thatās just so messed up. At least be man enough to say āyeah, Iām not doing thatā.
@Andrewgen_Receptors @marine77 well now you two are just trying to be hurtful. I thought we were getting along so well.
Most of the women posters here seem pretty reasonable I think. My point was I see men stepping up in most ways while women are content just existing⦠the whole āI am the tableā bullshit⦠eye roll
Social media has utterly destroyed the human dynamic
I do most of the housework and most everything that is required for my children. Doctor appointments, volunteering at school, clothes shopping, shopping for wrestling gear. Iām better at it. My husband does all renovation work. We split the yardwork. We share the house, we split the work. We both have our skill set. Iām happy with mine he is happy with his.
?
I scrolled through the smiths discography and I dont think I know who they are tbh.
Yeah, I usually just play it all above board. I tell my wife that I like watching her clean and do housework, frankly because I do. She tends to enjoy housework more and also tends to wear skimpier outfits to suit my preferences⦠its a solid dynamic.
I dont think I do the weaponized incompetence thing, because frankly Iād rather not be seen as incompetent. But maybe I just care more about having sex than a lot of other guys that actually do this.
Beautiful
What does this mean?
Ask the women that say that when asked āwhat do you bring to the tableā ?
Glad to hear it. Lol
How Soon Is Now ⦠youāll recognize it
Guy asks a girl āwhat do you bring to the table?ā referencing the ātransactionā in every relationship. In this case, romantic relationship.
Girl says āI am the tableā as if to mean that she is everything of value - without actually identifying a single benefit she provides.
This interaction is the norm in dating culture these days. The modern woman very seriously believes they are the entire value in every relationship just by value of existing.
I wish I was kidding.
Am I the weirdo because I donāt feel this disdain for my husband? Is he weird for not thinking Iām worthless? Or maybe he does and just hasnāt told me? Do women and men really dislike each other this much? God Iām glad Iām not single. What a nightmare.
Exactly⦠So off putting. And usually have nothing other than vag to offer. Men are stupidly simple to appease and even that is asking too much
Thatās the dumbest fucking thing Iāve ever heard.
Course not⦠happy for you both. So many wives are encouraged to hate their husbands and leave them.
I hope I never lose my husband.
- Heās awesome.
- I would never survive in this described world. Probably just live out my years alone to avoid this crap.
Love that attitude⦠honestly itās so refreshing. Tired of the divide.
- Become a cat herder
