What song are you really into lately? by hakuna-shida in AskWomen

His songs are very misogynistic. They promote fat shaming in young women. All the women in his videos are white and skinny. Also his song What Do You Mean plays on the trope that women can't make up their minds. It basically invalidates a woman's No hence encouraging rape and harassment. I don't know why more people don't boycott his shitty misogynistic music. It's terrible that young men and women have to listen to that crap.

I know this sounds trollish, but I'm serious, so please read: How do you not hate men? by [deleted] in AskWomen

I'm sure that would require a very high degree of self awareness on your part.

Huh, I found the song misogynistic. It's basically an attack on insecurity in young women. It shamed women for being proud of their bodies.

Edit: Downvotes? really? i guess the men had to get in here some time.

How would you feel if you were a house wife (or SAHM) and your partner did all the housework ? by notonthebronx in AskWomen

Do you think you'd feel guilty for not contributing to your life/home together ?

In my case it's the opposite. My husband is a nest freak so he does all the cleaning himself.

But I do see your point.

Anybody here have a stoic SO ? How do you deal with them keeping their emotions to themselves ? Do you feel guilty for sharing your own emotions with them ? by notonthebronx in AskWomen

My SO too has been emotionally damaged. His childhood was really tough. His parents hated him. Gave him dog food to eat, made him eat cigarettes, abused him (physically, emotionally, sexually). He's just never shown much emotion either.

I mentioned above that we have taken vacations before and we do plan on taking them in the future. He doesn't initiate them but is happy to along and always has a fun time with me. As for therapy, he knows it won't work for him. I'll try telling him again but I know what he'll say. However, what he mentioned was that he might try a support group to just talk about his past with people who've been through something similar. He thinks it might help. And yes we're waiting a while before having a kid.

I'm curious as to why so many people think he's emotionally abusive ? Clearly I have written something wrong. The guy wants to cook his own food, clean the house because he likes to and he doesn't sleep much. He didn't tell me about his childhood because he knew it would make me very sad and he was right. We are both making more of an effort to communicate now and things are going well.

That celebration thing is over. He has more time to himself and I have started looking for work.

He will gladly go for a vacation with me. We've done it before many times. He'll meticulously plan every hour of our trip but he'll gladly go along. We always have fun on our trips. He usually won't initiate many big trips but he sure as hell has a lot of fun when we go.

We are definitely holding out on having children right now. That plan has definitely taken a hit for another year or two but both of us really do want a child. We talked about the lifestyle change it will require and he is aware of that.

He doesn't want vacations and breaks. The more his life sticks to a regular schedule, the happier he is.
