wife bad amirite fellow men
Fellow boomers
Father I cannot click the book.
You could easily reverse the genders and this would still be funny. He’s saying it to her face, it’s like a roast
Edit: Y’all are some sad motherfuckers here on Lemmy. You’re not supposed to take jokes seriously. It’s literally a shitpost, nobody is here on their soapbox saying women are bad
It’s not really funny with any genders. I guess I’ve had too many “roasts” to my face
You shouldn’t have stopped sucking
I’d recommend breaking up with him if you haven’t already
Sad motherfuckers for calling out a shitty "spouse “bad” joke?
No, it’s just people are super tired of hearing about jokes being made at the expense of people you’re supposed to love lmao. That’s like the exact opposite of “sad motherfuckers”.
r/BOOMERTIME is leaking?
I don’t understand how people end up married to someone they only kinda like and tolerate. Idk if I’ll ever marry because I want to be very sure we love each other and are compatible before making big decisions like that.
From experience: in the US especially we’re sold this idea of the nuclear family: a husband, a wife, 2.5 kids and a dog with a picketed yard. It sounds nice, when that’s how you’ve grown up and how your friends have grown up and how your parents live and how your grandparents live. We’re sold this idea, this lie, so intensely because our country wants us to be in these easy to control family units designed to enforce patriarchy.
When a man is taught his job is to be a patriarchy, to be stoic, to be the protector and provider, he forgets his own needs. When aan forgets his own needs, he unwittingly lies to those close to him, those who love him. Those who think he loves them, beyond familial tie.
These are doubly so for those of us who are neurodivergent, as were taught from birth that we must suppress our own needs so those around us will tolerate us. It doesn’t matter if I loved her or not, she loved me and that means I have a responsibility.
Anyway those are just my 2 cents, but what do I know, I’m just a late 20s divorced autistic trans woman, cishet relationships are an enigma to me.
Even as a kid, that “ideal” seemed miserable to me. I guess I kinda see it if we adjust it to me being transbian, but it’s still not ideal. I think I’d be a lot happier in a much more communal culture, which is the opposite of the American Dream.
I’m also not monogamist, so uh, yeah, that’s very not compatible with this system.
I’ve always dreamed of having large abode filled with friends and lovers where everyone pitched in and helped each other.
waaaaannnnnnnntttttt!!! that would be amazing
For all those young people trying to figure out of they are compatible and should get married …
If you can both afford it … go on an international trip together for at least two weeks.
Organizing together for something this expensive shows both how committed each other are to one another.
Spending every single day with each other figuring out how to live with each other during a complicated, sometimes difficult, but very real situations that have to be dealt with shows who each person really is and how they handle things. It gets even more revealing when you both end up in a situation where you are both tired, hungry and stressed out. Even if you are a good planner and organize every hour of a trip, not everything works out and it’s those moments that show who you really are. And the longer your trip lasts, the more these events happen and the more you see the other person because you have to rely on one another in a foreign country.
I went to Thailand with my wife after we got together (we never officially married because we just didn’t care about that). We didn’t have much money and most expensive part of the trip was the flight to get there. We stayed in hostels, huts, bungalows and shady places and spent every day fearful, hot, confused and wondering what to do next. We did it for a month and we grew to love and trust one another through some really crazy shit. That was 26 years ago and we still talk about it.
My favorite story about this was a couple we knew years ago. They took one motorcycle and went on a four month journey around North America on their honeymoon. They went as far as Alaska, the Atlantic coast, Pacific coast, gulf of Mexico and down to Panama and back. They’re still together after 60 years.
That’s kind of classist ngl, implying that you should only get married if you can afford a two week international vacation?
Or European, but that’s still holding something over my American, married on a beach by my mother in law, right back to work, no honeymoon no money for gifts no vacation time to take anyway ass.
But I understand the sentiment, I’d been with my partner 11 years before we got married, we knew how bad it could get without being the Griswalds
Agreed. I you are a woman why would you engage in sexual activities that you don’t really enjoy? If you are a guy why would you push a person that you supposeddly love to perform sex acts that she doesn’t want to do.
More than that: if you seem incompatible, why are you hiding it behind resentful jokes instead of actually confronting it?
Add a few decades to any decision. You probably won’t feel the same.
Maybe you’re taking the joke too seriously. No one and no relationship is perfect. I can easily be both in a solid relationship with the love of my life and have some areas of frustration to vent in sexism jokes. Of course she may be frustrated enough to divorce me out of the blue, so I guess the joke is on me
I can’t say I’ve ever had a relationship or friend that made me want to do sexist jokes about them
It doesn’t usually start out that way. People get complacent and other life shit happens that they start to prioritize over their partner. Then resentment builds and everything goes to hell.
Religion.
Haha I hate my wife!
This is a shit post, not a shitpost
HA HA HA DEAD BEDROOM
Boomer humor.
With this kind of attitude, his mop is better at making things wet than he is.
That’s not even a mop.
It’s nice that they are cleaning together
Maybe they could work together to clean out some of the water pipes in the house
It’s funny because any man stating “this is true” etc is just telling on themselves. If the physical attraction was there before marriage the only reason it would disappear after marriage is that one person is suddenly not “putting in the effort” any more.
That effort doesn’t start with a bj.
It’s entirely possible that it’s not the man who stopped putting in effort.
Look at the demographics of those who create, share and upvote memes from the man’s (this thread) and the woman’s point of view.
Entirely possible - yes. Statistically likely - no.
Purely out of curiosity, where are you pulling these demographics from?
Are you interested or did I just hit too close to home for your liking?
Do you expect everyone to accept everything you say at face value without question? Are you this bizarrely aggressive every time someone questions you? I questioned it because it seemed like an odd statement with very broad reach being applied in a largely anonymous space.
You’ve linked a paper locked behind a paywall, thanks for that. I’m not seeing much of anything to do with demographics in that paper at all. The paper appears to be an analysis of the types of humour present in some popular memes and how they apply to feminism.
None of the categories outlined in the paper even seem like a particularly good fit for this particular meme, other than maybe at a stretch a single line discussing general vs specific sexism, although I’ll openly admit I’m not conversant in the literature.
I’ve had GFs in the past lose their attraction to me because I cried in front of them one time. All kinds of shit can affect that. Not just laziness. It may not even be anyone’s fault at all.
Wash your taint FFS!
FW:FW:FW:FW:RE:Lol!
I cannot relate.
Are the straights OK?
I hope she’s his sister or the poor fella is not gonna get any for some time.
Well sounds like he isn’t getting any anyway so might as well have fun with it.
It’s what all marriage counselors suggest really /j
