Here's how you can keep it 💯 with you and yours. If you dont live by those rules now, dont do it when you're living with someone else. Also dont entertain the brehs that do and you're all set. When dudes clown shyt like this, I be thinking they trying to cope cause they miserable.

My cousin had worked 65 hrs in a week. He was gonna take the following Monday off to get a day of rest and his wife got mad at him and said "We got goals, and you tryna rest"

Mind you, she doesn't work. He got up the next Monday morning and took his goofy ass to work

The Truth
Or was it a joint effort?

Men that agree with that shít have low self esteem.

How about "an unhappy husband will be stickin' his díck in your cousin":ld:

But naw, dudes are too scared of the woman's reaction to ever say some shít like that

From your A.I. overlords:

The saying "Happy wife, happy life" is an idiom with origins that are unclear, but it gained popularity in the late 20th century. While some sources suggest it may have roots in older comedic or real estate contexts, the phrase is most commonly associated with comedian Jeff Allen, who used it as the title for a comedy show in 1998. The saying is often used to express the idea that a husband's happiness is dependent on his wife's happiness.

Here's a more detailed look:
    • Early Mentions:
      Some argue the phrase has roots in older contexts, like a 1903 poem called "The Work and Wages Party" or a real estate ad from 1958. However, these uses don't necessarily indicate the modern understanding of the phrase as a cause-and-effect relationship between a wife's happiness and a husband's happiness.
    • Comedian Jeff Allen:
      In 1998, comedian Jeff Allen released a filmed compilation of comedic sketches titled "Happy Wife, Happy Life," which significantly popularized the phrase.
    • Modern Usage:
      Today, "Happy wife, happy life" is a common idiom used to suggest that a husband's well-being is contingent upon his wife's happiness. However, it is also criticized for promoting outdated gender roles and potentially creating codependency.
    • Not a Proven Fact:
      The idea that a husband's happiness is entirely dependent on his wife's happiness is not a universally accepted truth and is not supported by scientific evidence. Some sources suggest that a more accurate and inclusive saying might be "Happy spouse, happy house," acknowledging that both partners play a role in a couple's overall happiness.

An unintentional consequence of a happy husband is a happy wife.

A woman only cares about HER happiness but when a man is happy he wants to make sure everyone around him is.
That's why the woman should be raised from birth to be focused on making her husband happy.

But that's too oppressive, according to the cac flith that's currently running things.
