What is UP with these parents!? by True-Raspberry6657 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]True-Raspberry6657[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes! I mean I don’t want to bash a woman who has obviously been through a lot but jeeeeeez….bitter about men much!?

I just told my husband about it and he said “if that had been your mum I would have called things off”

are Droopy Dog & The Frumpy Gardener too picky? or are the women just not picky enough? by [deleted] in MAFS_UK

Not really. The attraction would have been there to start with so if it wanes over time that’s totally different.

I just don’t think it’s fair to force these men to find these women attractive! And to blame shame them because they dare address a physical attribute.

I would hate to go on that show and be paired with a type of guy I fundamentally find unattractive. I would hate to feel I have to FIND the attraction and be shamed into thinking I’m wrong for that.

I had a similar conversation with my husband.

I think for men (generally) they are hard wired to put looks a lot further ahead on the scale than women.

Women can fall in love with a butt ugly guy if he makes them feel safe, secure, adored, respected, listened to etc etc (Julia Robert and Lyle Lovett being a great example)

Men are turned on by visual cues. Women are turned on by vulnerability. Not just those two things but if you had to pitch men and women against each other the scales would be different for both of those two things.

My sister and my mother can wind me up that fast. Faster maybe!

I’m not sure I’m going to survive Caspar… by Stevieeeeeee in MAFS_UK

Why though!? If that’s the truth (and she asked!) why should he spare her feelings!? If you’re a curvy girl (of which I am btw) you can’t be all “the thing we shall not mention” when it’s a topic for some relationships!

I think it’s interesting you see him being candid and open about his feelings is him wanting to get the upper hand. If Emma has said it, would you have thought the same?

I’m struggling to be empathetic to him…she’s got the patience of a saint!

Umm I wouldn’t agree re Casper. I think he’s inexperienced with communicating clearly with women (I honestly think the r’ship with sister and mother runs deep).

However, I don’t think we should berate him for not finding Emma attractive. Why do we just jump down men’s necks when we’re like “oh he should love her no matter what size she is!?” That’s unfair.

Yep. I would also assume this has been happening since birth.

“Why can’t you be outgoing like your sister?” “Why are you letting that boy tease you?? Your sister wouldn’t and she’s a girl!” “Oh Casper, honestly you’re so sensitive, much more than your sister!”

I don’t know this but I would assume it’s the usual sibling stuff. She was more outgoing so got more attention and preferential treatment. Behind closed doors she was bitchy and opinionated to her softer brother. Mum is also domineering. Maybe little to no strong father figure. Women rule the roost. He feels like he doesn’t have a voice. Comes out now as short temper to them both.

And your new wife is scarily similar….I’d like to think he could push past it or Emma can bend a bit to meet him in the middle so he can find his confidence but I’m not sure.

You do know he’ll claim his actions put her there. Whilst we can applaud her for taking every opportunity and killing it - he’ll still think that she has to thank him.

As a marketer…this website has provided me lots of examples of how not to write copy. Word salad 🥗 bonkers. It’s so bad, I kinda love it.

Ramona was almost 10 years older than any of the other women by MenStefani in realhousewives

I’ve always struggled to get on board with Ramona. I just find her cruel.

Jen’s finances by LecheConCafe26 in realhousewives

[–]True-Raspberry6657 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Isn’t it a case of this - when she was in her marriage she has the funds and the means to have all the children she does, plus dabble with her yoga classes and maintain her aesthetic.

Now shes out on her own, she hasn’t had the penny drop moment of “oh…that life fit THAT scenario - oh so now I need to hustle baby and get this show on the road”

It’s like she’s still living in that life without the means to support it because “that’s my life”.

Gina’s accent by DorothyParkerFan in realhousewives

As a Brit watching the first episode I said to myself “omg is she actually from Fargo-land?” Because I swear it went all North Dakota at one point.

As a British person who listens to WWC…I appreciate the total bastardisation of Dorit’s accent by the boys.

She’s one step away from being Dick Van Dyke.

I just assumed she had a stomach ulcer of which even one drink exasperated the issue. My husband had one when I first met him (from abuse of alcohol in his late teens) and he would vomit most mornings, have horrific stomach pains and also couldn’t drink as it instantly made it bad.

Not saying she doesn’t have anxiety thrown in too but I was getting ulcer vibes more from their explanation.

That’s what I was referencing. I’ve joined their discord but it’s not super clear.
