    I’m sure it’s true for some women. But I wouldn’t be surprised if most working women were either married or in a committed relationship. Plus, a lot of households have two incomes out of necessity. Both partners need to work full time just to make ends meet.

      Women need to get over their obsession with gay men we are not interested in them that’s kinda what being gay is all about.

        I’ll be honest, I kinda wished bear representation was more mainstream. I love how gay men draw and represent other men and I want that on my straight porn too!

        The other kind of bears, because if we’ve learned anything from the internet it’s that women would rather date the animal bears than men… or something like that.

    Variation on the joke.

    Parents of a high school age boy and girl have a photo on the living room wall.

    It’s a picture of a fat, bald old man in a Speedo standing on a yacht with a pretty girl hugging him.

    “It’s to inspire our kids to stay in school and get good grades. We want our son to try and be like the man, and our daughter not to be like the woman who is with him.”

    Women hate men. They don’t date men, go out with them, hang out, marry them, fuck them or become their girlfriends. This is known since time immemorial.

      you know, i’ve always been wondering about whether that is secretly a covert plan of the wife so the husband works longer hours, makes more money and makes the family richer. i’d seriously not put that past some people i’ve met in my life …

      That was all the salesmen at one place I worked. Mormons with tons of kids. They’d go anywhere in the world to get away from them.

        To be fair, parenting is a pretty shitty gig. Expectations are high and support is low. People judge everything you do, especially those who have never done it themselves. Even with good kids its a thankless slog most of the time. God help you if you get a hard one.

        In the early nineties I knew a Mormon man with a happy housewife & 10 kids and he would run a marathon by himself every day just to be out of the house.

      One of my friends is going through a divorce and one of the reasons his wife gave us is that he would sit in his car in the driveway and look at his phone for a bit when he got home. There are other reasons but that one stuck out to me.

        I answer work messages before I go in so that I can give my wife my attention when I walk in the door. I used to do it in the driveway but now I do it in the parking lot of the shop around the corner.

        Yeah. That’s my personal indicator that there’s something wrong with my work setup; avoiding doing the thing that leads to the unpleasant parts. I guarantee he started hiding in his car after the relationship issues began.

          Think there’s some nuance needed. Occasionally ppl need some some time to decompress. Im positive a lot of ppl sit in their car after work to avoid their spouse but others just want sometime to themselves. Ive don’t that being single and having roommates i actually like. Plus sometimes I was too lazy to get out of the car

            Yeah, I get it. When I get home I don’t want to talk to ANYONE I don’t care if I like them or not. Just need a fucking minute to myself to decompress and switch gears. I can’t speak much to his situation but knowing her and seeing how she greeted him at the door with shit when I was over there on more than one occasion I could see why he’d want to take a second before walking into that.

        Nope. It’s a trans-generational ploy since time immemorial. The worst ones are the bosses who ask you to stay so they don’t have to go home, but it can happen to anyone.

          Yeah but who are the bosses currently mainly from? Exactly, boomers. Also, younger generations rather tend to break up instead of enduring a bad relationship/marriage.

            Get a job and you’ll see most bosses aren’t boomers

            You could also just look stuff up but making stuff up is fun too
