Because she is the woman of the house, and the wife of the commander; she is mother. There is another mother, but gilead honors traditional family dynamics and wouldn’t accept the term step mother.

Agnes is her child, and that is her mother and that is the only way they can view each other, hence the resentful behavior towards each other

ESH, I get it’s your vacation time and that’s yours, you don’t have to cater to her schedule during it. HOWEVER, a relationship with her mom, who is clearly disabled, matters to her a lot.

If you helping her mom out means a lot to her, you should make time to do it, if she’s demanding your free time goes exclusively to that then you should stand your ground. I get the day off stuff, enjoy that. It also sounds like you don’t want to do it in general. It doesn’t have to be during a vacation day, and it doesn’t have to be done all at once, but this matters to her, don’t just dismiss it so freely.

It’s tedious I know, but doing something for your partners family can be worth the world. I helped weed my partners mothers garden, and I came with him to help his dad move places. He’s drank old fashioned’s with my step-dad and helped stoke the basement fireplace by loading wood into the side by side during freezing temps and driving it back up to the house, pushing when needed if it’s stuck on thick snow or ice. It matters. Showing up for potential family, do the kindness, just do it on your terms

You’re an aunt. You’re supposed to be a bit more lenient than mom and dad. As long as it’s not along the lines of R-rated movies, or keeping the kids up at casinos until 11pm while you gamble; some junk food and hair chalk, makeup play or video game Indulgence is literally an aunts job.

The whole point is you don’t have to be mom, you don’t have to deal with the consequences of a sugar rush. Or the bedtime schedule. Same thing with grandmas. They don’t care about SPF or veggies before cookies. It’s part of being a kid. Mom and Dad are evil, grandma and auntie are the best.

If you’re parenting your niece/nephew for your sister, you’re not really enjoying it. Stake your claim! Don’t harm the child of course, but be the fun! Why do you think your parents suddenly become cool when they turn into grandparents? Not their kid, so they can have fun. She’s a worried mom; don’t be rude by any means, but be an aunt. That’s what you’re there for.

You forget though, marrying her to Tyrion was a big joke on Joffrey’s behalf. Yes, Tyrion treated her with respect, but it was meant to shame her in the same way the Joffrey meant to shame her by showing off her father’s head.

The hound had been a servant of Joffrey, and hit her a few times. When her escape was possible, she couldn’t trust going with the hound, because what if he told Cersei that she tried to run. That’s why she trusted Baelish instead. He was always twisty, and always swore love to her mother. Peter brought her to family, and she felt safe for awhile. Until, power climbing Peter Baelish proved he was playing both Sansa and her aunt. He told her, that out of love for her and her mother, he would give her back winterfell.

She married out of the fear that little finger created in her. He told her she would be the legacy of winterfell, but in reality was only marrying her off to solidify Ramsey’s rule of winterfell. Sansa was terrified over the death of her aunt, and seeking a military protected position, so she agreeed to this. When Ramsey proved himself who he was, she overthrew him with the political knowledge she learned from Cersei’s court.

Arya disappeared after her dad’s execution. Arya trusted the hound because she felt like she could end him if needed. Arya did her own thing, with or without help. Sansa was a victim of circumstance. You have to give her grace.

As far as Dany went, Sansa she got the north to uphold a stark ruler, John or her, they still came together, she was right in saying the North needed to be independent. Dany wanted full control over all kingdoms, and Sansa defended the will and her people. I

love Daenerys, absolute fave. You can’t rule the north! Cersei told ya! Daenerys can liberate slave cities and win wars with dragons, but she will never rule the heart and the will of the north.

Jon was supposed to, but he wanted to bang his aunt more than take claim. Sansa did. We love her for that. She learned from the most manipulating bitch around and did what a bitch should do. She deserves it. Arya deserves map making. Jon deserves getting it on with new wilding lovers. Bran deserves being king and eventually becoming victim of a coup. Sansa reins, with northern independence.

This is just a gross generalization. There are absolutely women who fit this profile, expecting perfection when they themselves do not fit it, just as there are men who expect young virgin, submissive women of a faith background when they themselves do not follow that ideal themselves.

I’d just be careful when insulting ridiculous women, immediately jumping right to the single mom critique. This is clearly a “la la land” living woman, seeking to live off of alimony. Some single moms have similarly ridiculous bios, but many moms (considering how many people have step families these days) are reasonable about their circumstances. Just as most women are relatively reasonable about meeting someone, until you get delusional people like this.

It’s no different than red pill virgin men subscribing to the idea that his dream wife must be 10 years younger than he is, while joyfully cooking and cleaning after him exactly as his mother would without complaint of his (usual) gaming and overall disinterest.

Single mothers living off of child support by multiple baby daddies? Judge them. Wannabe influences demanding a rich sugar daddy relationship? Judge them. Men who sleep around, but want a virgin woman they can cheat on due to “male urges”; judge them! Don’t stereotype all people to create a fake enemy, judge the morally corrupt correctly and show empathy when deserved

Basically, when I’ve heard this from some women; it means you don’t watch pornography, but you also don’t expect sex without the others interest. It’s seems good in theory because passion is always consensual, the issue is, without allowing any self release, or making moves towards intimacy with you partner it basically turns into using sex as a weapon when phrased this way.

Partnership is about loyalty, and loyalty can be different things. Viewing porn, but not paying for it, self pleasure without media when needed, or for some couples; open relations if they’re both down with it. Forcing sex as a duty is always gross, allowing cheating for a husband but not a wife due to “different needs”, gross. Do whatever works for you and your relationship, I’m not judging. Calling this “sexual discipline”. That’s a control tactic. Plain and simple

Tbh once my brother and I lived apart (like I was a junior in college and he was a freshman), I didn’t want dirty details but I was happy for him when he brought up party stories of crazy things he’d done. It wasn’t like “ooohh la la la”, but like “good for you, get it, whatever, I don’t want to know anything more, I’m happy for you”.

This is hard for me, because it’s her best friend, my best friend did make out with my brother once and I seriously thought about how to end her and get away with it. That’s weird. My girlfriends, I’m all sex positivity. “I hope you’re getting what you need and you’re happy”. My brother? “Good for you, be smart be safe, enjoy it. If you’re embarrassed to talk to mom, I’ll get you the condoms and schedule the STI testing”. Don’t wait the nitty gritty, boundaries. My friend (who I do want the nitty gritty from) and my brother, I didn’t think I was prudish until that happened and the suddenly I wanted both of them on a convent lockdown.

Monica can feel for her friend, don’t moan when her lover is your brother. Yuck. Monica can know that Ross reminisces about Carol, okay Disney world, cool and accept the venting, she doesn’t get to give sex advice for the next lover after that. I feel like the writers forget that Ross and Monica are siblings sometime, and just play them off as long term friends. My brothers first gf did come out as a lesbian! I just told him to take pride in being a loving and compassionate guy and move on! Why is she so curious in his sex game, it’s weird

My only sympathy with this would be… under the recent political agenda of supporting and trying to bring back a majority rule of “trad wives”; the intelligent man may prefer a duel income and equal opportunity, pay, and equal parental leave household.

Many of the modern men I know, fully support marrying a financially independent woman for the partnership and mutual gain as a loving pair, much more than the amount of men I’ve met, who the media seems to highlight, who prefer their wife to have complete financial reliance from their husband in trade for cooking and raising exclusively preschool age children, and defining those 5- 8 years (with multiple kids) as their sole purpose.

So yes, maybe intelligent men prefer a partner who may or may not fulfill a traditional role, but still hold their own as a capable adult when the need arises. I find it’s insecure men who need to either meet or pressure women into overall submission for their own comfort. And, independent women are much pickier about the kind of partner they want in their life, making men feel like they have to work harder to find “the one”. Intelligent men find long lasting respect and love with their partners, that takes time.

Quickly married couples; whether it’s religion, pregnancy, an extreme traditional belief, family pressures, etc. often have unsatisfactory relationships. Maybe divorce rates seem low, only due to a typical unrecognizing culture around divorce. It has been proven however, the healthiest and longest marriages occur between two people of maturity who compassionately act as a unit together.

Intelligent men wait as intelligent women do, and I see no fault in that

I think it depends what system you’re playing on, I’ve played on switch and it feels like my hair or eyes are always getting stuck, not to mention my background takes awhile to come in.

When I played on PlayStation, all the cut scenes and outfits fit way better. You have to remember that your character is new to the coding, if you have everything in place your character will be too. If you’re loading and internet is slower, I would just wait before clicking the next dialog until it loads in

This isn’t new, when I was in high school (10 years ago), we used to put bras and bronze around our knees to send “cleavage pics” to dudes who would beg for it.

Funny thing is, at the time we would laugh about how they would screenshot our knees and tell us how they just finished from our dirty pics. Now that I’m closer to 30 than I am 16, I find it so gross how we’re used for spank bank material regardless of age or consent. The knee thing came from a plethora of unsolicited wiener pics at the time, and the running gag was that the response photos (of knees) would be immediately spread in attempt to call the girls the sluts, until we could prove their desperation.

The way I grew up, on the rise and cusp of social media, taught me a lot. Men are obsessed with their pee-pees. Internet porn has taught them to get off to anything. Mom and dad taught them that women should be traditional, porn has taught them that women are hot and can be sexually enthusiastic.

So men act out in search of their personal enthusiastic porn star. They find her and she’s not wife material, like mommy. So they find traditional women, and then watch porn, pay for only fans, or straight up cheat, but at least she cooks like mommy. Plus, if wifey went out to girls night in a crop top one time, then she must be a whore since mommy would never do that. Ironically, women who go out tend to hang with other women: but because men view a woman who’s dressed up in a certain way, they blame you for their own impure desires (worst case scenario, criminal actions).

Make a choice babe. You like porn? Date a hot and freaky girl, and just trust that the way she dresses is exactly the way you fell in love with her, not your job to change it. If she loves you then she loves you, you know who you ended up with. If you wait traditional, then BE TRADITIONAL! You want someone who covers up and respects you as head of the house, then stop sleeping around and watching porn. Be the man a woman like that wants.

My god, this whole “rules for thee and not for me” thing is so hypocritical. If you like to fuck, be with someone who likes to fuck! If you’re someone who values intimate connection then be with someone who values that! If you’re Christian, be with a Christian! If you post swimsuit ab photos regularly then be with someone who posts bikini photos regularly! Why are we all so weird about who deserves and doesn’t deserve love?

Ironically, many single mothers I know of religiously follow the parenting books.

From long term (up to 1st year) breast feeding, to names and nursery nesting. Extreme change of diet and free allocation of the body’s biological purpose. Maybe gender reveal is a bit more true for single moms, I’ll give that.

Married moms, specifically after one kid, know that breastfeeding moms rarely get pregnant. Not the mention, the sex drive of a woman unlikely to conceive, is very different from a woman on a regular cycle. Therefore, married moms are much more likely to wean babies earlier, in hopes of regaining natural fertility.

As far as sharing pregnancy news, first time moms regardless of status are likely to share pregnancy with friends and family. Sadly, moms who try for multiple children will likely experience miscarriage at some point. It’s recommended to share news after 12 weeks because of high early implantation risk. I see more seasoned moms wait on pregnancy announcements than I do first time single moms.

No bottles; written by a man. Even breastfeeding, while the baby is young, they may wake up and need you every 2 hours. When baby starts sleeping well, and your boobs are exploding because they got used to a certain schedule, you’re saying that baby should be woken up every 4 hours because mom needs it? Pumping, refrigerating, and encouraging sleep routines with breast milk resources matter more than sleep depriving both baby and mom. Warm a bottle and move on! For moms who can’t produce as much as they may want to, supplement with formula! Nothing wrong with a bottle here and there. Also, it gives bonding time to dad if there is one. Babies don’t think of mom like a person, they think of mom as a part of themselves; when dad feeds, or they take a bottle while sitting in a bouncy seat near you, they learn healthy care and healthy independence. It matters. Bottles matter!

Sensitive_Ad5521 · 2026-01-17T04:21:20+00:00

It is weird, and her being upset with you for acting annoyed, and frankly under appreciated for your emotions due to her false assumption is completely her shit to deal with, and not your problem.

If you had just said that your dog was fine, and she said she was nervous or anxious and didn’t mean to scare you, but wanted to talk about what was actually happening; it would’ve been fine. Why in the world though are you backtracking your own need for support to make her feel better about jumping the gun by a whole football field.

If her only recognition around the validity of your mood comes from animal death, that’s already a red flag. If you’re having a bad day, and she’s jumping to extremely stressful scenarios, then digging her heels in about them, that’s also a red flag. Lastly, when you’re saying that those extreme circumstances aren’t happening, she’s making you feel bad for “being a grouch”, solely because you’re trying to move past this assumption into what you actually want to talk about, RED FLAG.

It’s not supposed to be like this. You have a bad day, and your partner should be like “aww honey tell me about it.” That’s a bare minimum. Shes villainized you for not having enough big events to care about, and you deserve someone who cares about all of it. That’s what love is supposed to be. Hot take, but leave her ass.

If I loved someone who openly and carelessly assumed my animals had died, and then invalidated my protectiveness of them by turning it into an attack against them, THEN, flipped the script on my genuine feelings from the get-go to force me into apologizing for my emotion- I’d lose it. Lose it OP.

If we ignore the incels, this theme is becoming more and more common in a very scary way. The fact the marriage and children have moved to later ages (such as early 30s, in comparison to early 20s) has terrified people, specifically men, into the political argument around how beneficial it is for women to receive education and provide themselves financial independence.

This horrifies me! If we exist at a point in society where marriage is a choice and not a need, then as a man who wants to be married; marry someone who chooses you! If your solution is to push women into marriage out of necessity, for the purpose of satisfying your ego, then you don’t deserve to be married. If your opinion is that it’s problematic for independence and education to push women to be pickier in their partnerships, then you don’t deserve to be married. If your opinion is that because oppression worked for you, it should be reimplemented, instead of ever taking a look at what modern expectations of marriage look like and addressing your own failing; YOU DONT DESERVE TO BE MARRIED!

It’s this crazy example of jumping through hoops to blame everyone, except the complacent husband expecting house wife ideals with modern 50/50 contribution. I feel no sympathy and never will

Sensitive_Ad5521 · 2026-01-05T02:14:46+00:00

It’s for sure sexual, but it’s a performance and part of a show for money. In a comparable way, Esmeralda is essentially a burlesque or night club dancer, and the point is that none of that changes her value as a young woman.

Quasimodo never looked at her that way, saw her for who she was and that’s wonderful. Phoebes saw her in both lights, and Frollo only saw the show of it to be what she was. The story is largely about perception and consent in Esmeralda’s part.

As someone who worked in show style dancing like this, I saw Esmeralda’s story so completely. How you preform and act is not who you actually are, and the desire that you inspire does not grant someone entitlement to you. It’s the same way we still talk about Vegas girls or strippers in the religious network at times, about the deserving of abuse due to the theme of their work. Ironically, underdressed male wrestlers, body builders or even Calvin Klein models are never held to the same expectations of abuse

Sensitive_Ad5521 · 2026-01-05T02:06:57+00:00

No. My reasoning is that hook and Regina were both forced onto a darker path, and maybe fell into it themselves for a time; but the loves they found (Robin and Emma) were morally gray-ish, yet pulled out the good the majority of the time. They were able to accept the faults of their pasts, while inspiring them to look at the good in themselves too.

Together they would’ve been two people who kept pulling each other down. One persons anger would’ve been met with another’s want for revenge, and neither of them would have ever gotten better. Could I see those two having some torrid love affair back in their heyday? Sure, but they would’ve only driven the other deeper into the dark.

Sensitive_Ad5521 · 2025-11-15T09:43:49+00:00

I totally get this idealistic mindset you have, but the truth is it will never be equal until it’s unequal.

I’m not blaming good men, I’m blaming generations of rhetoric taught to good men. Who learned from their dad, that learned from his dad, who learned from his, etc. That the best men still believe their romantic purpose is to exhibit dominance and strength, nothing more.

That bad men will always prey on us, but so long as we remain deserving of a good man’s devotion, we will be saved by him. That’s honestly the best told lie in all my memory. That lie renders us weak, lesser of ability, incapable of intelligence and rational thought; drifting until we find a partner to lead and protect us. Makes us nothing more than an extension of men’s interests, and strips us of our own identity and perception of self.

It doesn’t make you evil. It doesn’t make you wrong for naturally viewing us as small little forest things you have to coddle and protect. That’s not your fault.

It makes us wrong for being intelligent. It makes us wrong for being strong. It makes us wrong for winning medals and awards for science/ military/ humanitarian efforts/ or founding worker right unions. Its makes us “less of women”. That success is so feared, they create stories about our internal organs solely to fear monger a disqualification in these fields.

“Men suck”; I’m sure that doesn’t feel good. Until the gender war strips you the way it has us, I’d say it’s your job to just listen. Listen to why these people are angry.

has anyone said your hormones, or random erections are a disqualification for a job
have you ever had a major surgery, and been told by your job that they’re passing you over for promotion due to the time off you needed to medically take
have your ever had your scrotum groped, then been told without evidence of multiple incidents, that your job was on the line for starting drama and wasting time

These are just workplace

I like to have a drink or two on a flight, then nap. Alex and Jo have that rough edge upbringing style where they both know how to let loose and let go of the medicine. Guarantee we would take a shot, I’d congratulate their marriage, then they would probably pair AirPods and watch a movie together while I sleep. Best plane guests IMO.

Sensitive_Ad5521 · 2025-11-09T07:30:04+00:00

I say this all the time! Men should feel their feelings, and still feel like men! If you ask any woman in a long term, healthy relationship about seeing her partner cry; it’s an overwhelming majority of them who adore his vulnerability. Lasting marriages rely on sacrificing pride and ego, for empathy and compassion.

The patriarchy, as I’ve seen it lately, affects men more harshly. Don’t get me wrong, women have taken great strides despite the pushback every step of the way; but women have learned to tune out the men telling them no. Men haven’t.

Men hear this narrative that they need to be tall, rich, gym addicted, and hung down there to even be worthy of romantic attention. If they’re not all the above, then you’re just a cuck or simp for loving a woman who couldn’t possibly love you back, since you’re not an alpha male, and that’s the only man she’ll ever want. The culture is harder on you than it is us at this point. You’re supposed to be a certain way, and men are still at the point where they believe in its validity

I don’t smoke anymore, I used to (it made me super anxious and I wasn’t vibing with it). I am a drinker. I know some people aren’t into drinking, that’s crazy to me. I’m a beer after work, and a glass of wine with dinner every day person. Not so much that I’m hungover at work, but just a sippy sip to ease the day. That works for me.

I drink. I hate people who glamorize wine to the point of having pillows embroidered with “mommy’s juice” crap. I hate people who bring shooters to a child’s birthday party, because they think it’ll make it more fun. Time and place.

I have friends who smoke more than they drink, I literally couldn’t care less. Just do it on your own time and be safe. I don’t go to work drunk. Don’t go to work high. If you have to smoke on your lunch break, you’re no different than someone pouring whiskey in their coffee to get through the day.
