I Have 0 respect for married men who have “chores” or whose wives control the finances.

Most of the people that actually stay married subscribe to the "happy wife, happy life"
those of us that need to be right or even just fair, thinking she will happily compromise because thats the logical thing to do, usually end up getting divorced.
I know this, i used to be married myself.

When it comes to household chores, there's a split in my household as to who does what.

I handle everything outside (lawn, roofing, snow removal, etc). One because I geniunely like doing that stuff, 2 because I ain't having my wife climbing up ladders to clean the leaves out the gutters, etc.

I handle the budgeting. I'm meticulous regarding our budget management. Not that my wife can't do it, but I rather take the lead.

My wife does more of the traditional stuff. Take care of the baby, clean the bathrooms. We share other cleaning, cooking.

We're not yelling at each other if one of us slips up and doesn't handle our shyt. What couple does that? :mjlol:

No restrictions on our separate social circles. She or i want to go out, fine. As long we plan a bit in advance so one of us has the kids.
This sounds exactly like my relationship minus any children. Respect sir. :ehh:

I agree "happy wife, happy life" is not the mantra
I can't be mad, some people had a bad batch to choose a wife from and that's messed up and not all their fault.

Why a woman gotta tell a man to do the leaves though? What kind of dude want leaves all in front of the house he works to pay for?

How am I inferring anything when I used the direct examples you used?

Ok,let me pose it to you like this. Let's say a woman was doing all these things.

Instead of finishing up the laundry or cleaning the bathroom she's out a brunch with her girls
Instead of allocating money towards braces for the kid, she's spending the money on shoes
Instead of spending time with you and your family she's out with her girls until midnight
Instead of listening to his better budgetary suggestions you go out on your own spending freely.

You'd say she was a pretty sub par wife wouldn't you?
You do realize this not an attack on women but on man-childs like the ones I mentioned. You’re literally proving my point. You can’t be a man if you need a woman to get you to do the basics.

Are there men on The Coli like this ? I’m serious. Some men aren’t leaders. It sucks to hear but it’s the truth. I said some men I didn’t say black men to clarify. I would hope my significant other would let me “ control” the finances BUT not as a form of controlling him. I’m just really good with money 🤷🏽‍♀️
I think the issue is more of they weren't raised by strong men. Every man I know who has a spouse that runs the house either doesn't have a good relationship with their father or their father was the same way.

Bruh, ill let you in on a little secret.

When a man says "I have to check with my wife" its means "No i dont want to do whatever you talking about so ill just say let me check with my wife because you have no come back for that".

Whenever some clown knocks on my door trying to sell something thats my immediate response.

You think I should I ask them just in case? :jbhmm:

Who said she should do it? Are you Breh intentionally being slow?
no it's a misunderstanding. when you said assign chores, I thought why would someone's wife need to assign him chores? is he waiting for her to rake the leaves? he would sit and have his wife do yard work? but I said "you" instead of "he", stream of consciousness

not something I've ever heard of tbh, a man being assigned chores

Ok buddy.

And yet, you’re the one who wants control of the finances… ok.
You like to argue huh ? I don’t have to control them but I wouldn’t mind if I did. That’s also considering he wouldn’t mind because contrary to popular belief some of us care what the other person thinks.

Most men are lazy and need to be hen-pecked.

Having said that, most men shouldn’t be married and really don’t want to be.

So it evens out.

The problem is women marrying lazy men just to have someone. You should not have to mother the man you are fukking.

You could be right. But I know I am.

Never took it as an attack on women. Especially in a marriage situation because that man picked that woman. I know of men like you're describing.
