Why are men attached to the concept of doing so little. https://twitter.com/staceyNYCDC/status/1264005641867276300

Every straight woman's nightmare:

You fall in love with a man and then, for years, his needs take center stage and yours are erased and you have to do everything yourself - from housework to child-rearing to the emotional labor of keeping the relationship afloat.

Common!

Straight men who follow me, I ask you to consider devoting today to doing some things you wouldn't normally do and which the women in your life do constantly: Cleaning something you don't, spending more time with kids, doing something warm and visibly loving for your relationship

Every straight woman I know is running on empty and every straight guy either has no idea of it, or no intention to do anything to share the physical and emotional work.

Men ask all the time "what do women want" like it's some great mystery.

No longer! What women want is this: To be visibly appreciated, respected and not be taken for granted.

You're welcome!

All this talk about liking a man for looks or height or whatever is pointless. That's teenager stuff. What grown straight women want is a man who will step up and take equal responsibility so that women are not living a life of de facto servitude in their own homes and hearts.

To be clear, this is a subtweet of *every straight man*, in case some think they're exempt.

If you're a straight man, spend some time today thinking about how you show up (or don't!) for your loved ones. What steps can you take to improve that?

Thank you for listening.

This is a variation on the adage that people don't leave jobs, they leave bosses.

Women don't leave relationships or marriages: They burn out.

It's years of overwork, overcompensating for men who underfunction in the house and relationship. Independence is better than prison.

So far I haven't received any misogynist commentary in this thread, which is nice.

(also? I am correct and I am helping you, men, for FREE right now. Please take my valuable advice today and improve your lives and the lives of everyone in your families).

Absolutely uninterested in how much of a "feminist" any man thinks he is

unless he's living that feminist life by

loading the dishwasher, spending time home-schooling the kids, showing warmth and affection to his wife/girlfriend, and calling his parents to keep in touch. ty.

"Feminism starts in the home" is a theme I love to talk about! Some previous threads.

I think we may also consider that the love language of many straight women seems to be acts of service. Note it well, men. https://www.verywellmind.com/acts-of-service-4774980
