Go build me a table!

Newwavesupport3657 · 2020-09-15T04:03:48+00:00

I told my father that mowing the lawn is a Man’s Job as a sarcastic joke that I didn’t really mean just cause I didn’t want to mow the lawn and he actually got pissed!

“What if I said women only belong in the kitchen?!”

brags about never having done laundry, and rarely cooks

I like how they are suddenly aware of sexusm when it suits them to say “wow if the tables were turned “ because they rights we do have they don’t think we should have anyway.

It is so crazy they will get super super offended.

My favorite comebacks; “don’t you have a wall to punch a hole in?”

“Please get back in the garage.”

I’ll have sex with you only after our wedding.

Ohhh, not so traditional are you now Todd

nowheyrose · 2020-09-14T23:59:01+00:00

Of course the traditional roles they refer to are actually mother and child. Because he baby.

Make me nuggies while I play my games mom!

Funnily enough the only guy I dated that was resistant to the idea that men should pay on dates, was a hardcore fundie Christian, the type that believed in the strictest gender roles ie women shouldn’t be in the workforce, women should never wear pants or makeup or dye their hair (only ankle length skirts and baggy blouses), feminism/modern music/tv was satanic etc

I lost it at jebediah go out into the field lmao

MonicaLSolis · 2020-09-15T00:49:34+00:00

It is hilarious how men love submissive housewives but they would kill themselves if they had to adhere to male standards 50 years ago

will_dog2019 · 2020-09-15T00:57:35+00:00

The ones who scream the loudest about traditional roles have no idea how to change the oil in their car, do any basic household repair, or start a lawnmower. Completely useless.

peaka25 · 2020-09-14T23:51:22+00:00

It is ridiculous that women are still expected to fulfill traditional gender roles when most men aren't even capable of fulfilling theirs.

My grandpa was a builder, he built a house for my nana and their kids. 2/3 of my brothers are fugly useless drug addicts that expect to have smoking hot women while being incredibly sexist and as dumb as a box of rocks. My oldest brother was the only successful man of the lot that busted ass for it all for his wife and kids. What a laugh.

kycake · 2020-09-15T02:04:10+00:00

miss the times when men went to war and died. at least build me a house chad and provide me with what i need, like a nice car, bills paid, cute clothes, trips to europe, then i’ll happily cook healthy meals for us both. males want women to sleep with them right away and to pay for everything themselves AND to cook, clean, be their therapist, take care of kids, look fit and glamed up daily. their audacity is out of control.

kettleodumplins · 2020-09-15T05:02:48+00:00

I'm all about traditional roles. My greatest gen grandfather cooked every meal, cleaned, & did his part taking care of the kids in addition to working when my grandma had to work full time. Grandfather moved up at work until they could afford for Grandma to stay at home, but only if she had a house cleaning service. Both of my grandparents lived until I was in my 30s & I never saw my grandma cook, clean anything other than the occasional load of laundry, or stress about anything.

Wasn't about to settle for less than THOSE "traditional" values - if you're making him a sandwich, his ass better be coming in from the fields.

OrchidLion · 2020-09-15T00:31:59+00:00

Love that last one lmfao

LadyGrimes · 2020-09-15T01:16:54+00:00

LOL!

2020-09-15T01:34:28+00:00

Omg I thought I was the only one who said go build me a house 😂

kortiz46 · 2020-09-15T03:00:38+00:00

Out earn me Chad then we can talk

s_slayer · 2020-09-15T09:45:43+00:00

Love this. Men will go on about how their gender built everything and constructed society, meanwhile they sit around on Reddit and porn sites unable to even properly wash their own bums. It’s like, no chimps, you don’t get to ride the coattails of men who actually did shit in the world. If you wanna go there, get off your arses and go build a skyscraper or hell, even just change a fucking flat tire. Most of them are totally useless these days yet try to lump themselves in with the productive, skilled men they will never be. Also, you’ll never hear them talk about the fact that women were denied proper education and learning of many things since the beginning of time. They prefer to claim we just don’t have the brain power to do what they can. Ok chimps. Imagine a world of only men. It would spiral down into such a shit show in short order and they know it. We are definitely the more rational gender despite their constant claims we are crazy and unstable. The most emotionally unstable people I’ve ever met were always men.

Sewud · 2020-09-15T11:15:34+00:00

I find these comments about the past hypocritical either way.

"Men went to war" to defend against other men

"Men were the breadwinners" because men made laws so that only men could own property so as a woman you could only be a servant or a wife which is also a servant

Women didn't stay in the kitchen, women worked in the fields too, this is evident when you look at less developed areas of the world where agriculture is still done by hand. I mean I get that migrant workers coming from South America to pick vegetables in California are mostly men but that's migrant workers. Go to rural areas in third world countries and look who's picking peppers and tea leaves all day under the burning sun with a baby on their back and two more running about picking stuff too. Women always did work. It's just that at the end of the day when the sun went down and the work day was over, the women would then be in the kitchen cooking all evening and serving the men who sat in the living room enjoying their beer and gambling their money.

There's also the principle that men do more "risky" and "demanding" work that pays more, but may be more sporadic, like getting hired for contractual work or migrant work or stuff like fishing or grazing animals or stuff like carrying stuff with pack animals if they have some. The men might be gone for 3 days or 3 months and come back with a pack of money. Meanwhile the women do more "easy" work that never stops and that pays less, such as menial work in the fields, washing the clothes, cooking the meals, while still being with the kids. There used to be artisanal work too that is less prevalent now that they can buy stuff manufactured in sweatshops, but women used to make clothes and other objects, and if they made a surplus they could sell that.

Speaking of sweatshops, when it transitioned from subsistence agriculture to industrialization, women started working in sweatshops too so there was not really a time where women "didn't work" unless we're speaking about rich people and the start of the modern workplace.

I was somehow responsible for all the cleaning, meanwhile my ex couldn't even be bothered to change a lightbulb or put air in my tires.

cupcakedreamz · 2020-09-15T01:43:43+00:00

That last comment is savage, love it 🙌

CheetahEnergy · 2020-09-15T00:19:08+00:00

This is goldddddd

Citron-Top · 2020-09-15T03:58:26+00:00

Wiggy_Bop · 2020-09-15T05:47:20+00:00

falsademonstratio · 2020-09-15T03:15:23+00:00

the last comment LMAO!!!! Ill bring this up next time a scrote tries to tell me shit!!

ItsFreezen · 2020-09-15T11:32:09+00:00

None of these men are building anything.

faux_naturale · 2020-09-15T03:23:59+00:00

It’s such a broke mentality. If he made enough, you’d have a cleaning service, and eat out/get delivery every night.

lacyvulture · 2020-09-16T10:56:50+00:00

Pay for half the date because you are not a “traditional woman” then make me sandwich and sex me. Men got things all messed up.

Half_Halt · 2020-09-17T13:35:57+00:00

Lmao. Used to work with a guy that was ex-Amish. I teased him to go make me a table all the time. 😂 Furniture making wasn't his trade -- he was a blacksmith/farrier -- but he apparently could manage a basic table & chair set if needed.

Ironically, he's one of the most genuinely progressive-minded men I've ever met despite coming from a very strict Ordnung.

MagnfiqueMaleficent · 2020-09-15T18:55:10+00:00

Creatures.

2020-09-27T01:42:33+00:00

kai_wulf · 2020-09-15T17:29:17+00:00
