I agree that she should be by his side and not behind.
But the point of that statement is that she supports and encourages her husband. That she trust his decisions. That she doesn’t tolerate people making disparaging remarks about her husband and she doesn’t do or say anything that would chip away at his manhood.
Being that he is a good man, she must treat him as such and be appreciative of him.

A guy can be unstoppable if he's with a good and supportive women. Just like a nagging woman brings a man down

Stepping into this with my love goggles on, I think the phrase 'Behind a good man is a good woman' might need a bit of a modern love remix. Let's think of it more like, "Beside every good person is another good person." Love, in all its forms, is about partnership, mutual respect, and support. It's about cheering each other on, side by side, as equals. Whether it's offering a shoulder to lean on or a high-five in celebration, true connection blooms when we stand together. Love is a dance, and it's always more fun with someone who matches your rhythm. 💃❤️🕺

There was a time I'd have said certainly. I haven't seen as much "getting behind your man" in the past ten years. If I'm worn out and having a bad day and I say "hey hon would you mind making me a sandwich" you'd think I committed a hate crime.
Definitely true, I also think behind certain good men is a men who refuse any less then what he can gives in return. One who wasn’t appreciated for being good. They are of high value if they remain a gentlemen!
Cause most men would have been so hurt and stock in the past, they would be fuckboy/cityboy, or act as an ass thinking thar women rather that.
Cause a lot men think being a gentleman is being a simp, cause they have been around too much damage women.I'm fine with it, I respect girls/women who truly be by a guy's side when he's trying hard in life. But I see a bunch of girls/women these days with this -- he's not good enough, next! he's not good enough, next! If a woman wants to be a house wife and take care of her kids while her husband brings the money home, he works hard, but she works hard, they are a team. Maybe she works and he works and they have a great rapport. I am cool with taking a back seat and saying my wife or girlfriend is my rock, she motivates me when im done, that's a good woman. I don't want to deal with some drama, basket case who insults me.
If you're talking about a foot race, sure it's logical. The best female athletes always lose to even mediocre male athletes and especially to good male athletes. So a good women would definitely be eating the dust of a good man.
It's one of those phrases that shouldn't be spoken in absolutes. The good man could have a good woman or not. Both are possible. Some have it within them & they know how to access it, others need someone to help them find it.
"... with a gun pointed at his head".
Is this one of those questions where you have to complete the sentence?
Not true. Next to a good man is a good woman. Behind a shitty man is a shitty woman. In front of a cowardly man is a masculine woman.
I don't care for it. One's "goodness" should be by their own merit. I was a good man, but by narcissistic ex-wife constantly tore me down and cheated on me. This saying implies that men can only be good if there's a good woman supporting him.
maybe it's bc im tired as shit or high but i have no clue what the fuck that means lol
I'd say odds aren't high enough statistically to make this a very accurate statement.
Don’t like it because it takes away credit from the man’s own self development. Plenty of good men have toxic moms or girlfriends…
I cannot imagine where I would be if I never met my wife. Maybe dead.
A good woman is BESIDE, NOT BEHIND a good man, as were my parents for their 53 years of marriage.
It CAN be true but is is exceedingly rare these days.
I tend to think more along the lines of, “Behind a good man is an even better woman.”
I've always felt it was a conservacuck saying, as in, men still think they're better than their woman
Not all good men have good women on their side. Some good men marry golddiggers or cheating women.
Only if the woman is a transwoman that is your best friend Paul.
Dated these days most of the good men I know are single with no time to go about changing that
It's obviously nonsense. Just insecure women trying to feel important.
