One thing I’m sure many of you have noticed is how enabled LVM/NVM’s are compared to women. It really needs to stop. Why do you think this continues to happen? Do you have any examples? Here’s a few I’d like to share:
My elderly ex-MIL let my ex husband move in with her because living on his own was “hard”. She pays all the bills/cooks dinner/takes care of this almost 40 year old loser.
A very successful woman friend of mine got married and had a couple of kids with a guy who seemed great at first. Then he quit his job out of nowhere in order to pursue his dream. And it’s a stupid dream that can’t succeed (similar to selling scuba diving gear in Kansas). Instead of leaving him she turned around and sunk $50k into “supporting his dream”. Now he barely works and spends all his time tinkering with his hobbies. She works 60+ hours a week WTF?!
It’s not just women that do it. I know another LVM that refused to work. Charged his fast food, bar drinks, etc. to a credit card that his dad would pay off for him. We’re talking $10k every few months.
Can’t tell you how many Reddit posts I’ve seen where daughters are expected to clean and contribute and then are then kicked out at 18 - while their brothers don’t have to lift a finger and can live there for as long as they want.
I could provide you with 20 different examples. But if men are supposed to be “leaders” and “providers” how did we end up here?
P.S. it’s my first post so I hope I did this right.
