A relationship should be about love, not getting and receiving things.
Of course they're doomed to fail if you follow that stupid 50/50 philosophy.
It’s almost freaky on how similar our viewpoints are on so many topics. Great take 👏
50/50 never works. Its a time bomb indeed. Everyone should help by doing what he can and what he is good at. So the outcome is not 100 but better. Also a lot of time is saved so the couple can enjoy free time together.
Relationships in general are doomed to fail these days I think. People are trash.
That includes you
@BonnieBunny and you
I have to say that if and when I have a child, my wife could be like 60% with the baby and work 40% and me vice versa. I think that I'm many ways kinda conservative, but I don't believe in so black and white genderroles.
It can't be 50/50 about everything. There is no real complementary about it.
This seems mostly correct but I don't really see what you mean by saying a child has to have both a male/female role model, considering the fact that same sex couples do fine and there's no difference in being raised by one and being raised by an opposite sex couple. Or I just might be missing your point here. Please leave some feedback if possible, This is interesting and I'd like some clarification on that specific point
If you have same sex couple you still have maternal and paternal roles. If you have two parents one will tend to fill the loving role and one will tend toward discipline. It’s human nature and different in every home which gender plays which. Single parents often speak of having to be disciplinarian and the love a nurturer. My sister in law recently married and had a child but has already raised two kids on her own. She says she misses being the total package of maternal/paternal parent. She says now she has to be the disciplinarian and her husband in sugar daddy and she doesn’t like it.
@GrassyDadShoes88 I see, thanks for your response I think I understand what's being said a little better now
Actually statistically children do better in a traditional heterosexual house hold then homosexual one. We do know their is a difference, a male cannot understand what it is to be male from a woman and a woman cannot understand what it is to be a woman from a man, they are just too different both in biology and how they interact with their own gender and the opposite gender. We use them as templates both for our own behaviors (this is why single mother hood has been, while catastrophic for girls, more damaging to boys, they have no template to base their behaviors on, just impulses and maternal instincts do not train males to control behavior for the good of others but rather to be more self oriented as the child is treated as the center of the world for the mother but the father acts as a guide for that child as it pertains to the outside world without which the child is lost) as well as our interactions with the opposite sex and our idea of what we should look for in a mate.
Well traditional wisdom seems to support your mytake completely, as does biology of course. Thanks for this contribution.
It simply would not work in my marriage.. She makes less than 10% of what i make annually.. How can i expect her to contribute 50/50.
I'd rather just have some sort of agreed upon fair division of duties and equal effort placed in to maintain that romantic fire.

This take explains why women want to divorce.
None of these arguments actually make any sense, apart from the 2nd one.
Actually, nobody’s going to bash you for being a housewife or “perpetuating gender roles”... Nobody really cares. Stop being dramatic.
I agree 👍👍
That baby is so cute by the way 😊
This is a great take and I agree with you 100%.
miss me with that race-mixing shit
Awesome
I agree
They’re doomed because most girls are hoes
Good take
