| If men get everything they want in a marriage which before was listed as regular sex and blow jobs, attractive partner with nice figure, a partner that doesn't nag, cheat, and isn't mean, then what are they willing to put into the marriage? |

My dh does absolutely anything I want. He's proactive about romance, handles his shit around the house without me asking and actually understands the mental load (doesn't mean he knows how to do the mental load stuff, but he sees what I do and appreciates it/says thank you and tells the kids to say thank you, etc and). He did need to be "assigned" his tasks, but once assigned I don't need to ask again.
I spend a lot of money (and we have daughters) and we travel often. He doesn't complain or ever even mention it. He likes to spoil us. I very much like my autonomy/independence and he isn't threatened. Life is pretty good. |

| Golden rule. I will also give regular sex, oral and otherwise, keep in shape, and will not nag, cheat, or be mean. |

DH gets all that. He's a great husband and dad. My job can be stressful and he immediately helps me feel less stressed by just hugging me. He's an equal partner in our relationship, we are as close to 50/50 as we can be and I don't need to ask. He shares the mental load and will ask what he can do to help out. Our mutual respect and appreciation for each other is sky high. He also likes to spoil me.
We have a very happy marriage. It really comes down to the high level of respect and appreciation we have for each other. |

| Mine does all the planning and transportation for the kids (school, activities, stuff with friends). The only time I have to lift a finger is when both kids have something going on at the same time. |

What do you mean by “be mean?” Like, you won’t physically hit me, or you won’t clean out your car by putting all of the stuff from the car in the kitchen I just cleaned? |
