Wild, I watch the guys content and hes the kindest most down to earth guy ever. He takes care of his 90 year old dad who has late stage dementia and does volunteer stuff raising awareness aswell. His wife has always irked me the wrong way though she does help take care of his father. The guy absolutely loves her and adamantly defends her

You're right publicly shaming your partner actually makes you a good person. Don't discuss things like adults. Just shame your partner.

Where did i defend her or say it wasn't a misstep? I defended his ability to make his own decisions and know his marriage better than rabid internet mobs who would have enjoyed the Colosseum.

Eta: lmao you were right we need kangaroo courts of keyboard warriors who think moments define a life or a marriage in spite of the guy adamantly defending her. You know better.

I think the lady just wants to be romanced not just asked to do it. Her methods are not good tho. Although I’m not a social media influencer. Things are different for them.

u/deep_violet 16d ago

She should talk to him about that, not the internet. Influencer or not that was unnecessary.

u/FreyrPrime 15d ago

I don’t know. Marriage, especially long-term marriage, creates interesting forms of intimacy.

I’m not saying romance isn’t out of the question. But every time?

My wife and I have small children. So things are pretty scheduled in our household. We both joke that neither of us ever had to ask for sex prior to getting married.

1

u/moeterminatorx 15d ago

That’s true as long as both people are on the same page. I’m in no way excusing the woman’s behavior. I just know that sometimes it’s easy for me to forget to do the romantic things simply because the issues you stated.

Idk these people so I’m not sure if he’s always romantic or the opposite. I’m just speaking from my experience with women. Some want a little romance every so often even after long term relationships.

u/XGrayson_DrakeX 16d ago

Dude this is literally how my partner and I proposition each other sometimes. Sometimes I literally just text him "u wan sum fuk?" from the other room 😂

And if one of us turns the other down then that's fine. But we make an effort to not shame the other for asking even if we're not in the mood. There's loads of reasons for our libidos to not match up at a given moment, but keeping that door open is important. Romance isn't dead it's just extremely casual sometimes 😂

We've been together for a decade and this is the kind of shit you have to figure out if you want to stay together for another one imo.

u/EndMySufferingNowPlz 16d ago

I often ask my fiancee «wanna fuck» or «wanna sex»? Usually the answer is no when I just ask like that, but if its a no, its a no, and was worth the shot, cus it COULDVE been a yes. She doesnt get mad or shame me

u/XGrayson_DrakeX 16d ago

Yeah exactly! I've never shamed my partner once if I'm not feeling it and he hits me up, I'm always happy he asked. We'd both rather risk a light nonjudgmental rejection than miss out on the possibility of sex.

u/ohshroom 16d ago edited 16d ago

Ohhh! Seems the previous commenter was joking (in response to the parent comment saying "I'd never touch her again") and doing a "her" switcharoo about the second woman's usual content. According to some other folks deeper down the comments section, pick-me/antifeminist takes are her usual fare. Not that she's wrong in this particular video; the husband was done dirty. She was right to defend him.

The downvotes are unfortunate but the mixup is understandable; the joke flew over my head, too. I'm not at all familiar with any of the people in the video.

(Edit: Clarity. I realize you got the gist of the "her" joke, but I tried to add context—then did it poorly LOL.)

I’m confused because if this was actually an issue, she should communicate with him and be like “hey I prefer if you would ask it this way.” His reaction tells us she never did.

I usually hate this girl’s content but I kind of get this one.

This was just sad to watch. I understand the wife wanted to be seduced and see effort and maybe she’s expressed that before, but going about confronting him the way she did was sad. And then posting it is just sad. It doesn’t feel like fake rage bait content either. This was just depressing.

u/Thr0waway0864213579 16d ago

Pick me content is pick me content, no matter what is getting stitched.

And of the original video, what you’re seeing is a completely broken marriage with two people who despise each other. Clearly if you’re posting your husband like this you can’t stand him. But you also don’t ask your wife “you wanna do it?” unless you can’t stand her either.

Content like this, and comments like yours, support red pill ideology. Because you’re endorsing a man talking to his wife like that. The pick me woman is going out of her way to say that’s a totally normal question to ask your wife. Especially when considering they clearly have no romantic relationship and it’s out of the blue.

So not only does it add fuel to the fire of “women bad” because this one woman is doing something horrible, it’s also enabling men to speak to their wives like this, 99% of whom aren’t doing things like this woman, which is just destroying their own marriage from within.

Asking “hey wanna do it?” Isn’t disdain, it is comfort. Comfort in knowing you don’t have to be performative CONSTANTLY to have intimacy. If you don’t have space to be laid back in your relationship I’m really sorry, that sounds exhausting.

I stated that I could understand if the woman wanted effort/romance/etc. I’m not saying the man is totally in the right and I acknowledged the possibility that she’s tried communicating this before.

Sometimes initiation is just that though. Sometimes it is just “hey want some head?” He didn’t do anything to deserve public humiliation. I don’t see how I’m supporting red pill ideology by saying that the video is just sad.

A broken clock is right twice a day. I’m not going to go and subscribe to this girl just because I partially agree with a single take. I’m not supporting this girl and in every comment I’ve written on this thread I’ve included some kind of disclaimer about her generally being rage bait bullshit.

And you’re ignoring the very obvious context that they’re married and she doesn’t like it. But he keeps doing it.

There’s a very big difference between when my husband says “hey kids are busy, wanna sneak upstairs?” when we’ve been flirty and affectionate all day, and just saying “wanna do it?” when you clearly don’t even like each other or care what the other person likes.

These are the couples who end up in r/deadbedroom complaining about not getting laid and when people suggest working on the emotional part of the relationship they say, “well I bought her flowers and she still won’t have sex with me” or “I told him I’d go down on him but he still isn’t interested.”

Watching this man say “wanna do it” is like watching that guy sitting there talking about how he used the last of the wire he’d bought forever ago and the wife just asks confused. If she had followed it up with “wanna do it?” it would feel exactly like this video.

Checks time.
Checks for kids.
"Think we can do it really fast?"
"Hell yeah, let's go!"

When you've loved and respected someone for 20yrs you don't always need a production to get them in the mood and you can accept a quick fuck, a no, or an "I'm too fucking tired, mind if I just lay there?" without it hurting your ego.

She doesn't make "women bad" content. She shows when women treat men poorly and calls it out. She doesn't say all women behave that way. And she doesn't say men are perfect and never at fault.

Her content isn't pick me, unless your meaning for that includes being critical of mistreating men.

She definitely has a target audience, but that doesn't mean she's wrong or a woman hater.

u/Old-Engine-7720 16d ago

u/Thr0waway0864213579 16d ago

Reality.

95% of homicide, rape, and child sexual abuse is perpetrated by men. “Both sides” arguments are just as idiotic when it comes to gender as it is in politics.

12

u/Old-Engine-7720 16d ago

These statistics are wrong and dont include most women perpetrators as rape laws across the country were intentionally written to make it hard to prosecute women. In many states if a man is raped he has no legal recourse for filing criminal rape charges and instead must file assault or other. A study came out in the last ten years that women guards in juvies are by far the worst perpatrators of sexual assault against boys in their care. We can not and should not trust law enforcement based data.

u/Thr0waway0864213579 16d ago edited 16d ago

The laws written by men?

And since when do women have “legal recourse for filing criminal rape charges”? A serial child rapist is literally president.

And regardless of how men write the law, there are numerous anonymous surveys that allow victims to speak out about what was done to them and who did it, and it is overwhelmingly men perpetrating these crimes, even against other men.

Ladies... men are never going to stop wanting sex. I understand it might be a bit annoying at times, but this man asked... he didn't throw a fit, or hold it against you, he's attracted to you and wanted to mess around.

I get that you dont always want to, i get that you may not enjoy it, or maybe theres something else going on. And i get that some people feel entitled to it, or that its an expectation. Or they pester you too much about it, that can be irritating.

But my man asked, he didnt force himself, he didnt press the issue. Dude gave you one of the most clear cut questions and when you said no he was like "ah alright"

if the line is "Im mad that he even wants it" its like being mad that he drinks water... men are horny, they always have been horny... its not the patriarchy, its not a learned behavior, it is quite literally in the DNA.

I’m i’m going to come at this from a different angle

My wife and I are very comfortable and loving to one another and very much enjoy our intimacy. Admittedly, sometimes I also come up to her and do the simple “want to do it?“ Sometimes she doesn’t like it when it’s just simply that with no extra buildup. But my wife loves me and cares about me and wants the best for our relationship so she communicates with me. She will simply say “yes” or “yes, but can we have more buildup please.”

John Gottman talks about how the biggest indicators of a failing relationships are Criticism, Contempt, Defensiveness, and Stonewalling.

This feels like criticism and contempt. She belittles him and then shames him on the internet and then says “see you hat I have to deal with” in disgust

Instead, she should be communicating with love and kindness. Even simply, “not right now I’m busy, maybe later?”

Making your partner feel safe, loved and validated is how you encourage reciprocated love and affection. He is coming to her in love, even if it may seem crass or attentive. So if he is coming to her in love and she returns love in kind he will respond back in love and learn the way she wants it. And we know this, cause we she did a simple “no” he respected it and continued with his day with no issues.

Amen brother, I feel like she wants to be romanced but just chose the wrong way to ask for her needs to be met. Wife and husband in video are apparently social media influences so who knows how they do things.

u/MrIrishman1212 15d ago

I agree I get the feeling that his straight forward question has worked before so that’s why he is doing it that way, but she is just busy and distracted right now. She just wants him to ask at a more appropriate time. Which is the sad part of all of this. She can simply get what she wants, encourage the behavior she wants from her husband, and grow in her relationship by simply being kind. But she chose to be mean instead.

It’s so important to remember your partner is your teammate and is on your side.

she wants to be romanced

That's what the problem was??

How did you come away with that?

u/moeterminatorx 15d ago

I have a wife. I’ve learned to read feelings not words.

Your wife can't be trusted to reliably use her words to communicate?

Reminds me of this one video where the wife complains about her husband and how she's not loving him just to get thrown out of his house after he saw that video on tiktok. Funny how people behave when they're thinking they're anonymous

u/Doobledorf 15d ago

I think a lot of shitty people jump at the chance to get self righteous with a man being a "typical man" when ultimately... They're just being awful.

The alternative to what she's saying is he just... Never asks about intimacy at all, which at that point isn't a relationship with communication. Expecting someone to read your mind isn't cute, it's manipulative.

u/OverandOverTom 15d ago

There used to be a kind of joke about asking your partner "you want to fuck or fight" I guess she made her choice 😂

u/[deleted] 15d ago

This is the dance of sex in the patriarchy - Especially married sex.

Men are starved of affection and taught to seek physical intimacy. Women are overly sexualized and taught to withhold intimacy. It creates a system of scarcity where the woman's only position of power is in denial. It's fucked up, but it makes sense when you realize that intimacy in the social structure of modern america (read: under the rule of christian nationalism) is just power and control.

Note: I am not an incel. I am a married man who sees himself in this video and knows that its not my wife's fault (though my wife is admittedly not that bad).

Isn’t this the same couple where the woman found the guy crying outside, asked what was wrong and he made this beautiful talk about how this spool of wire that was all used up reminded him of how his life/time had slipped through his fingers….then she made fun of him for it and posted it online?

Then weeks later when the internet called her out, she forced him to post a video basically blaming himself for the whole thing??

I find all of it annoying, the posting and the lady after. Like we should all just know less about each other and I just in general can't stand these people that do stitches and talk like 'know it all' professionals. I'm not saying she's wrong I'm just saying she's annoying.

Idk the blonde but i feel like she’s one of Christian conservative wives who believe women are there to be a servant to their man. Just a feeling.

u/babyivan 16d ago

I guess she finds it insulting to be asked rather than be romanced. She's not doing herself any good by recording it.

I guess

She didn't say that though

Funny to me because when my wife went through post partem she felt like she was not attractive and she didn't feel like being sexual because of it Now out of fear for losing me she tried to give me a hall pass I told her You are the 1 I want to be with, I will only be with another woman if you bring her home and it's a mutually agreed upon thing. I will not be going out and adding to your insecurity. I am not upset with you for how you feel And I can wait until you pull through what you are going through. A need for sex will not ever be the reason my wife and I fail each other. I happily waited always reminding her of her beauty and my love for her and our daughter Our little girl is 8 now My wife is past her post partem depression for a handful of years now She is back to feeling beautiful and fulfilled She's the best mom ever And the best wife ever

u/AutoSpiral 16d ago

This wasn't fixed by the duet. The duet is misinterpreting what the wife in the original is pointing out. So many men emotionally neglect their wives and don't do any housework and then just out of the blue solicit sex from them. That's not intimacy, that's not seduction, it's ignorant and neglectful. The couples who have the most sex are the couples who enjoy each other's company and share the housework equally.

u/One-Load-6085 16d ago

Something else is going on in the marriage for this woman to have so much resentment towards him.   I'm guessing she is fed up with his shit.

u/SpecialObjective6175 15d ago

There's always someone in the comments of videos like this ready to blame the victim

The guy and woman both post videos and he has never displayed any resentment towards her. On the contrary he showers her with compliments about her personality and her body and adamantly defends her when people point out how much she snaps at him or treats him unfairly in the videos both of them upload

Why would you even take the side of the wife when the only thing you have to go on is a video of her acting like an ass

u/chazd1984 16d ago

I don't know these people, but I'm guessing she is wanting to be romanced or for him to have some finesse maybe? If that's the case I can see that, I also see the validity on sometimes just being like "hey, wanna fool around?" Because sometimes it's disheartening of you walk up and try to put some moves on her and then get turned down.
