Why do you think people are so triggered by Jada & Will Smith’s marriage?

Question

They have talked about their open marriage for years - Jada on her Red Table Talk and Will speaks more with media.

I think people love Will the fresh prince and don’t like that he subscribes to an untraditional marriage arrangement with a more dominant woman. They want to make Jada out to be a villain and call Will a victim or a cuck.

Will is a grown ass man who can take care of himself. It always amazes me how the public reacts to stuff like this. No one knows them or what goes on behind closed doors.

I seriously don't understand why people feel the need to snoop in other people's marriages, when they are none of their business.
If they are happy that way, where's the problem?
People nowadays just want to judge.
They have an open marriage? Good for them, as long as they are both happy with it.
More than judging, people like to slap labels on others - if I'm okay with my wife having a side guy, I'm a "cuck" - likewise, she approves of my mistress, so she's a "cuckquean" while I am a "philanderer". If instead we keep to ourselves, we are "stiff".
Some people were even scandalized to learn she had brought a dowry, even if it was her own choice.
The lesson in all of this? People will always judge, so stop caring about them.

@MzAsh finally someone brought up cuckqean omg am I dreaming? Yes cucks go both ways. It's amazing how much sh*t the red pillers say/believe and how absolutely narrow-minded they are. There's like zero teanspancey with those people. I think people obsess about thei rela simply because they have failings in their own relationships and aren't happy. Instead of trying to swallow their pride and address the issues they'd rather let it all burn down around them in denial. At least those two TALK which is more than I can say for like 50% of couples these days. They aren't in a relationship I'd want but I'm certainly not going to sh*t on them for it either.

I think people care about them because a lot of people have labeled them as a "perfect couple" in their minds. And with Jada talking as much as she is it shows people they aren't perfect. Even though Jada and Will being swingers has always been rumored for tears. I really dont know why people are so surprised.

It's still something that goes against the grain socially. And you know how celebrity gossip creates scapegoating and hysteria.

jennifer_bloom · Answer

I don’t hate him or his wife but I think that like everyone else on earth, they have flaws and an open marriage is a flaw to me.

LogicBomber · Answer

She down played what she did openly in front of him. She embarrassed him publicly. Jada was disrespectful referring to her multiple year relationship as an “entanglement” and used her pet name “Aug” around her husband.
Will even corrected her with a quick and annoyed... “an entanglement? A relationship.”

OPEN relationships mean having sex with others NOT having multi year relationships with someone else. She had an affair. If Will did what she did, he would have been castrated by women and the media.

Mdm617 · Answer

He isn’t in an open marriage because he wanted to, It’s because in order to save his marriage, he had to let his wife have sex with other people. Then he has to go on t. v time after time and talk about it while a picture of him that looks like he is crying turns into a meme. Jada talks about all these different guys and is seen going around everywhere with them too. Where are all the pictures and stories about Will’s girlfriends when he was married to Jada? There are a few stories but those are rumors.

lilyanony1 · Answer

Maybe it's because they talk about their marriage.
In all honesty no one really cares most people would prefer that they didn't discuss it.
I think in an ideal world we'd like to believe they have the secret but their marriage is just as fugged up as everyone else's.

BrosephBrostar · Answer

Because it's not the kind of marriage that people should be trying to emulate? Because it's humiliating and emasculating for Will? Because it is entirely possible Jada manipulated him into accepting a one-sided "open" marriage?

There's a ton of reasons why people might get upset about this.

NawfZumbi · Answer

My only issue was the fact that she's sharing their bedroom with the world. If no one is suppose to care why talk about it?

Jada is making things more complicated by talking to celebs when she can talk to a therapist or marriage coach, whatever professional needed to deal with her concerns.

Imagine if will flipped places with Jada and started pillow talking to the world. Other men would instantly loose respect for him for not being able to keep his Buisness in check.
It might effect the roles he gets offered in films and such.

Personal speculation, that's all

Kaneki05 · Answer

Not one who has ever asked nor cared about what he does with his marriage and never seen such complaints.
But lemma guess "It's not traditional so it's bad" argument which only comes from idiots who don't realise traditional is not mutually exclusive with good and often is never good.

Those people are always wrong and triggered about something so no point in trying to argue about it really.

Razor8 · Answer

Triggered? NO we feel sad for Will. Jada fucked her son's best friend and post love letters on social Media from Tupac every year on his birthday. Who does shit like that? It's not about Jada being a dominant woman , its purely about her being disrespectful. If the genders were reversed you would not be saying this.

SEL195 · Answer

An open marriage is just another word for swingers. People love to live in ignorance. We would love to believe that everyone is faithful which gives us hope for ourselves to be in a commited exclusive relationship. Like a penguin or something I suppose.

Wester1967 · Answer

People fetishize open relationships. Like constant STD risk is somehow "mature". She's not dominant. She's jealous and he puts up with it. Neither one of them is dominant. She's also ugly AF and nasty arse old. Why is someone on Smith's level with some miserable unbearable hag? Hell dude. I'm a year older than Smith and I would not touch a 50 year old woman with a 50 foot pole. Who wants 350 million dollars when I do better and live a more sensible life on less than 1% of that?

Ailito · Answer

I didn't know any of this. Idc about celebrities and their lives, so I wouldn't have known.

Anyways, I think their business isn't anyone's else's business.

I like will as an actor, and all I gotta know about is what his next movie is. Idc about anything else.

And I don't really know anything about his wife or why she's famous and I guess idc cause she isn't recognizable to me.

Floppy2112 · Answer

Because it's easier to look and judge other people than to look in the mirror and deal with the creepy piece of crap staring back at you.
The biggest disease this country has is failing to mind one's business. I know these guys had some dust up in their marriage, but I frankly don't care. If people spent half the time on themselves that they do others, there would be a lot more happy, satisfied people in the U. S.

Pillarofhell · Answer

My god why are females so fucking dumb when it comes to what is right and wrong? This is the third time today I've heard someone say that it doesn't matter what someone else does because they're an adult. I won't even waste my time explaining to your unevolved brain why you're wrong

Morgador · Answer

People don't like fake people period! They had this image that they were faking. No wonder their relationship crashed, they were living a lie! Hey if your freaky own it and enjoy it together and whoever else you allow in your bed. I have nothing against that it's their decision. I wish them the best and now that they are honest with themselves and each other maybe the pressure that comes with lies that leash is off they can breath and find happiness

Kelly6 · Answer

People should mind their own business  let them enjoy as they want

wingattebaby16 · Answer

it is their marriage.. if they are Open and have sex with whom ever they want, as long as at the end of the day, they dont bring home STDs or drama, still love each other, and it works, then more power to them.

BCRanger10 · Answer

Two reasons. The first is that Will Smith is the coolest and the second is that people are entirely too interested in celebrity relationships in general.

Well, that and Will Smith seems to just be rolling over and taking it.

DryGermanGuy · Answer

I don't know or care about any strangers' marriage, but I knew they weren't the sharpest tools in the box, when they publicly contemplated sending their child (ren?) to a Scientology "school". That's child abuse.

Hangry06 · Answer

Cause it's not the default. Celebrity marriages are worshipped by many. It's like kpop fans. TOXIC

Johnnyjay · Answer

People's desire to call it out is the same as your desire to share that it's ok. In the end, who really cares. You care to say its ok they care to say its wrong. Most dont care at all.

Fuentes · Answer

Will Smith has openly embarrassed himself you're a cuck if you enjoy your wife getting fucked by others that has nothing to do with dating a "Dominant" women. Will Smith has ruined his brand. He's not any man to ever look up too

hanony · Answer

I think a lot of people are triggered because in most relationships one person is Jada and the other is Will. Will and Jada are just public about their relationship 🤷🏽‍♀️

bamesjond0069 · Answer

Well we call Will a cuck because he is a cuck. Its literally the definition. I don't know why people do the exact definition of a word and then get upset people call them the word. Smh. Cucks are cucks. Sluts are sluts. Whores are whores.

Birdlegs · Answer

Remember when she had an entanglement with August Alsina and had Will looking dumb for millions to see. Yeaaaa

DaveToo · Answer

Nor should it be any of our business what they, in their own intimacy, do or don't do. I wouldn't want anyone digging into my private affairs without my knowledge.

Miristheiss · Answer

Anyone who would let their married spouse have sex with someone else disgusts me.

fonduegirl · Answer

Example of toxic masculinity I believe. A "real man" won't let his wife dominate him.

loveslongnails · Answer

I'm not triggered by it. I don't really care what the Smith's do, as long as they're not hurting anybody else in the process.

MountAverage · Answer

It mostly boils down to projection. Same reason why people generally freak out about the idea of other people being in an open relationship/marriage.

AkshiJanjua · Answer

When I heard about it I felt sorry for Will Smith. And specially Jaden Smith lol, his mom fucked his best friend. What could be worse for that poor fella
