Lol. My wife makes 2x what I do and it’s wonderful.
I like your wife, too.
The joke died on Reddit. Let it stay there.
I really like his wife. She makes him happy and that’s great for her and for him and for the world.
Right. Everyone knows wife jokes started on Reddit. Never before in the history of mankind did anyone ever make a wife joke until Reddit came along. Thank you, arbiter of Wife Jokes.
You’re welcome.
It wouldn’t hurt my pride at all. Then again I never cared about proving how manly I was in such a childish way.
I dated someone who made more than me for a while. When she found out she was like “does that upset you?” I said no, I’m glad I don’t have to worry about your finances.
I don’t want to have to worry about if my partners are going to be financially okay. I don’t want them to “depend” on me. Them choosing to be with me is much better.
Tradwife influencers seem like people who don’t understand how having a kink works and mistakenly craft their identity around an aspect of a kink that is toxic when applied outside the bubble of consent and play with a trusted partner.
Right up there with Fox calling “people getting paid more” “wage inflation” and saying it’ll doom the economy if it isn’t stopped.
They’re quietly pushing the fatalist idea that someone’s always got to be poor, and giving them more money will magically cancel out. Like, exactly, to the cent. These people think doubling wages at McDonald’s will instantly double the price of a burger, as if all of that money goes right into the cashier’s pocket.
They are not just slandering when people get paid more. They are pretending that’s what causes inflation. As if paying people more does not work. Quoting a living cartoon I argued with on the other site, “it will put us right back in the exact same situation.”
And it’s really insidious when you realize that having this many poor people is horrible for the economy as we have a system that is reliant on consumers with no one who can afford to consume…
Meaning, they don’t give a shit about the economy, they just get off on suffering.
This is some next level gaslighting.
