It’s supposed to be an equitable partnership that benefits both parties. Otherwise why have a partner?

if 2 people live in a place, 2 people should pay the rent. that is equality. you're advocating for the woman to not pay the rent because she's a woman in the meme.

We're talking mortgage. If we're talking rent then yeah she should absolutely pay. It just gets muddier when equity is involved and there should be some agreement up front.

Equity? You do realize loads of rental properties are under a mortgage right?

dude, if you date someone who owns a house, then live in that house, you are dating the landlord and they are allowed to charge you rent.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's the scenario I'm talking about. Sorry you made up a different one.

No it isn't, it's the scapegoat to distract from your biased sexism.
