What does this even mean?
"Men lose their mind" = they start shouting and shitting on the floor in disbelief?
"Daughters aren't as forgiving as their wives": forgiving what exactly? Mistakes?
It's like they think they're saying something profound and agreeing with each other but saying nothing of value (as is natural on twitter).
I think it's speaking about women who "allow" bad behavior.
Like, maybe the man's mom used to do all his chores for him without asking, so he comes to expect it. His wife, who is not his mother, says he has to do his own laundry and maybe puts their foot down about the whole "weaponized incompetence" some men use. The man is surprised, because he didn't expect his wife to be "less forgiving" than this mother, who just gave us and did it for him.
For daughters, sometimes daughters (or just children in general) , as an outside observer to the relationship, can tell that one parent is shit (in this case, the father). While the wife may go, "He didn't meant it, he's just tired," the daughter may not be "as forgiving" and just say he is abusive.
However, I don't think either of these are gender specific. Just depnsends on the dynamic at play.
Yes. I mean I’m a man and I had no trouble understanding the post but for some reason it is very hard for some people
Maybe some people don't live around bad role models.
You're on the internet talking about a thread from xitter. Congrats for living in a cave with only good role models, but I think you should be able to see over the fence a little.
That made no sense whatsoever. You sound exactly like somebody from xitter.
You really couldn't figure out what they meant or are you being snarky?
IDK about 'snarky' but I've got $5 on 'feigning incomprehension'
telling someone they should find bad role models isn't nice imo
Not go out and find them, but be able to understand that it's pretty common.
