Double standards.

In her eyes, you're a utility - if your dishwashing machine were to one day get up and start playing Xbox, you'd be pretty wtf too. That's how she sees you.

You sit there gaming and enjoying yourself, and all she can think about is, "How does this benefit me?"

This perfectly describes how I responded to my mother when she said this about me and video games.

There you go. Because men shouldn't be spending any time sitting around playing videos games or drinking wine watching Netflix for hours. Not productive yet women who do it are painted by the media as "unwinding" or "recharging." And men are just utilities who need to get off their Butts and always be working. "don't be lazy."

OP is totally right. Fuck that and anyone who tries to make men feel useless for wanting to do the exact same thing that women are hailed for doing is should eat a dick.

and that's ignoring that video games are centred around problem solving so playing them actually has a benefit cognitively (as its a skill game).

but watching a forced narrative in order to obtain "gossip" about fictional people (reality tv is completely false) has absolutely zero value.

especially as with reality shows , they are badly behaved trash, so there is not even the minimal value of being immersed in eloquence or picking up language or mannerisms to do you dividends in life.

one is actually far more constructive than the other. genuinely

This never happens if at the first shit test you get up from whatever you are doing and show her how the door to the outside works.

Jonlife · 2016-08-02T12:15:46+00:00

Yep. All mind manipulation to make your "me time" seem like a waste. They have the media on their side to make their "unwind time" seem more important. Sucks it had to come down to this where we find out through the MGTOW movement that the cards were stacked against us all this time.

No more bitches are ever living with me ever again. Ever. Did you hear me say ever? Yes, I meant it. Come hell or high water, I...

Do you know that feeling when finally, after a long day of hard work and doing some household chores, you finally relax in the couch with a nice cold beer and switch on the TV...and there she comes.

Something is clearly wrong with her, but obviously it would be too easy to just tell you. So you can spend the rest of your evening guessing what's wrong and listening to her bullshit. Probably she thinks you don't do enough around the house, you don't make enough money, you're not spoiling her...

Not anymore, MGTOW motherfucker!

Fucking saved!

Stop playing video games, come watch some tv.

jrod2112 · 2016-08-02T16:30:17+00:00

Some of those comments on this photo were pretty ridiculous. They were making it seem like she was the only one that works and he was just an unemployed lazy ass since it didn't explicitly state that he had a job as well, so therefore she is the only one with the freedom to do fuck-all for several hours. (more a son and mother dynamic than a gf and bf one).
