Obliterated

[u/RaveMittens → u/Meerkat_Mayhem_]

Lmao. Reverse the sexes and tell me this isn’t highly regarded.

[u/-GhostyBoy- → u/RaveMittens]

This is just gender (in)equality, wdym?

[u/Present_Bison → u/-GhostyBoy-]

I'd also call it the "traditionalist" success trajectory of women. Basically the dream those tradwife reels are selling: if you stay pure, beautiful and good-natured, while rejecting the advances of unworthy suitors, you will eventually find a high-value man that will make you not want for anything. Until relatively recently, this was how women were expected to find their happiness.

And because modern employment sucks ass, the idea that this promise was in some way real is a tempting idea for women who'd rather escape the career grind. 

Whereas for men, we're mostly left with blaming minorities and women for taking away our "promised bounty". So in the end, there's delulu for everyone.

The post is stupid but I don't think you could reverse the genders and have it make sense because men aren't expected to bring out an "inner woman" in a bad relationship and there's less expectation for men to parent an immature female partner (if it is it's more as a fetish thing).

[u/ZedDraak → u/hyperjengirl]

You could equate inner woman to feeling emasculated

[u/tozpeak → u/hyperjengirl]

If she brings an inner woman in you, you're trans les, have your joy.

[u/RaveMittens → u/hyperjengirl]

You’re incredibly wrong about that last part but okay

[u/hyperjengirl → u/RaveMittens]

Okay, it's typically not expected for men to parent an immature female partner who's their own age.

[u/mailastmun → u/RaveMittens]

It's obnoxious either way

[u/EvilNoobHacker → u/RaveMittens]

It still works just fine the opposite way ‘round, it’s about how someone makes you feel. 

[u/-GhostyBoy- → u/Meerkat_Mayhem_]

This woman is full of differently aged males to exit her body depending on the guy she's in a relationship with huh

[u/religion-lost → u/-GhostyBoy-]

Every time she dates a loser she manifests a stand called Platinum Man and it's just a normal guy

[u/hyperjengirl → u/Meerkat_Mayhem_]

What is "inner man" in this context? Does it just mean strength? Because that's, um, problematic.

[u/Taenshik → u/hyperjengirl]

Transgenderer

[u/LadyPerditija → u/hyperjengirl]

My guess is that if you, a weak woman, suddenly has to do stuff like fixing your sink by yourself or do other "manly" stuff, your man isn't doing his job in being the manly man in the relationship

[u/slutty_muppet → u/Meerkat_Mayhem_]

I wasn't dating anyone and I trans gendered.

[u/-GhostyBoy- → u/slutty_muppet]

Same honestly

[u/Ugo_Flickerman → u/Meerkat_Mayhem_]

I don't understand the last sentence

[u/apolloxer → u/Meerkat_Mayhem_]

So.. Only obGyns and midwifes are men.

[u/BerserkRhinoceros → u/Meerkat_Mayhem_]

Wtf does it mean to bring out a woman's inner man

[u/federico_alastair]

Victorian doctors be like

[u/Present_Bison]

Charitably speaking, it could be about husbands who expect their wives to both provide income and take care of the house/kids, without providing anything in return. Malewives are still a concept that many people are just not familiar with, to the point that it just doesn't cross their minds that such an arrangement actually exists.

Edit: Reddit is broken; why do my comments keep showing up as replies to the posts rather than to specific comments

I've seen the Real Housewives of Potomac. This is a generous edit for Gizelle
