…how on one hand there’s a male loneliness epidemic and women are partly to blame because we’re so picky - and yet on the other hand things like this.
How can we both be desperately needed for your emotional health but also be huge annoying burdens? I don’t get it.
I’m not mad I’m genuinely just curious. I cannot help noticing how on one hand it’s often men who lose their shit the hardest at the fact that I don’t want kids or a husband and insist that I’ll be unfulfilled to the point of sitting in a mental ward playing with poop if I don’t marry and have kids.
Yet on the other… jokes like this are common.
Why do some men love to push something they hate and makes them feel trapped?
I get what you’re saying. It’s a prevailing type of “boomer humor” that has sadly trickled into the younger generations. “Take my wife, please!” and other dangerfield-ish jokes just refuse to die. I agree that it’s a sad form of humor that doesn’t do anyone any good.
There’s a great I Think You Should Leave sketch about this.
It’s fine if you don’t understand the thinking or humour. As long as everyone is having fun there’s better things to stress about.
