OH that too! Ooooh yes group seance/gab session!

May my great grandkids join the seance? I’m hoping he left out some of the kids.  Maybe Andrew because he's a pedophile. 

I’m hoping for secret side children and I hope my great grandkids have a seance or something when its unsealed so I can get the tea. 

If the public has been subsidizing your mass amounts of wealth for centuries, you can’t unilaterally decide that the allocation of that same wealth isn’t in the public interest.

I guess that is indeed a strong motivator. I heard someone say well the train was going in that direction and I just was too tired to get off and find another one.

Lots of men put on their best selves prior to marriage and then expect to be taken care of afterward (and would never suggest that this was their plan, because I don’t think most of them even think this way about it).

Pre-cana is mostly the church telling you to have children and don’t use birth control or have an abortion. 

I often say, “I already have a mother. I don’t need a second one.”

I like your daughter. (And you, for raising such a smart cookie.)

My daughter said to me, in reference to her father, “Don’t worry mom, I won’t marry a man who is useless.”

I watched my father berate my mom over housekeeping, cooking, everything and I swore I would never be like that. My wife and will be celebrating 22 years this year. I do the opposite of anything my father showed me as a kid and it’s a formula that works.

I’ve dated and married some real assholes in the past. One of them told me there was no point to being a woman if you don’t have babies. The other one divorced me because I was depressed after having cancer. But even those jackasses did a large amount of house cleaning and cooking. Was I luckier than I thought? Or do…

My partner and I didn’t break up during the pandemic but we did both gain weight, drastically reduce our sex life, and now have to make conscious “I’m going to leave the apartment for the afternoon and work outside via Xfinity just so you can have the place to yourself.” More than one of our friend couples got…

Childless crone here. It confounds me how so many cis/hetero men INSIST they want children, but want very little to do with the actual raising of them. My brother is a rare exception that I’ve seen. He works full time and does tons of child care and house work…. and his wife barely does any house work and we just…

I mean, anecdotally-speaking, can tell you this is what happened to me. I was slowly growing more resentful that I was working 70+ hour weeks and somehow all of the domestic work was falling to me (even though he’s worked from home for 5 years before COVID).

My ex sister in law is one of those women who needs her spouse to be functionally useless. Everyone she dated, and now her husband, is essentially a human golden retriever. Nice? Sure. Loyal? Sure. Needy dumb dumb? Absolutely. And she loves it. She writes his resumes and his cover letters when applies to jobs. She…

“I have always been surprised by the number of people I know who seem to actively dislike their spouse and/or children.”

Every once in a while my wife will come home from hanging out with a married friend and thank me for not being terrible. It’s kind of a joke, but only kind of. I’m out here earning points for not…

As a gen-x woman, I have absolutely seen women like this. They scare the shit out of me. 

I have always been surprised by the number of people I know who seem to actively dislike their spouse and/or children. The societal pressure was strong, so they got married to someone who seemed good at the time, bought a house, popped at 2.5 kids, and generally distracted themselves from the conveyor belt of it all…

As a middle-aged GenX dude, I have plenty to say about all these “man children” being referenced here. Useless, the lot of them. None of the women here need my permission, of course, but I certainly support every one of them who decide to show their S.O. the door.

I would offer a sidebar, though: There is a…
