Reminds me of my mom getting remarried several years ago, for about a weekend – dude waited until after the wedding to tell her he expected her at waiting at home with dinner waiting when he finished work.
I dunno, like I get that this version of manhood is “normal” but goddamn is it the most brittle, contemptable fuckin thing
This is NOT these women’s fault in any way – these men hide their misogyny until they think you’re hooked. They know what they are doing.
These women are wise and brave. I admire them so much!
My favourite part is that the offhand remark that a teacher or a nurse, both very high-stress jobs that are intellectually and emotionally very demanding, wouldn’t “think so much” (and we KNOW this devaluation is because they’re “woman jobs”) is already extremely offensive but it blows right by because of how fucking off the charts the rest of the remark is.
