[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing I think people in this thread are glossing over is that social media engagement is effectively her job/a major part of her job. Following his rules would be akin to asking her to quit her job and become financially dependent on him after only a few months of dating. Which is creepy and weird.

I still think she should never have released these, but his “boundaries” (not boundaries at all, rules for her life) were not reasonable. [/quote]

So that means that you shouldn't date Jonah Hill. But he isn't wrong for laying out what he wants in a mate. It's really not that unusual for a rich man to want his spouse to quit her work and be available for him full-time, and many women are happy with that lifestyle. Not my jam, but also not my role to criticize other people's choices. [/quote]

It would be better for him to find someone who doesn't have a lot going on in their life, then, not someone who is successful in their own right. Women aren't butterflies, to be caught and pinned to a board. Some men are really gross in their attitudes towards women. [/quote]

I've literally never heard of this lady before. She is a surfing instructor. And no shade on that-- but one of those hobby jobs that often leads to being a SAHM. Men intentionally look for women like this, who don't have a lot of professional drive, because they will adjust easier to SAHM life. Which is fine, and SAHMs are also real people who are not dead bugs on a board. If Jonah had married her and then laid out his expectations, I would agree. But he did it in the early dating phase, which is the right time for her to make an informed choice. [/quote]

Where are you getting that’s she’s a surfing “instructor”? She’s a competitive surfer and law student. [/quote]

I think she made money on the side giving lessons? Presumably for hundreds of dollars an hour.[/quote]

That sounds more like a hard worker with a sense of hustle than a young woman twiddling her thumbs waiting to become a SAHM. [/quote]

It doesn't to me. Most of the SAHMs in waiting that I've known have been yoga instructors, nutritionists, etc. I've never known anyone to literally do nothing at all.  People always have *something* going on. And in any case, he obviously guessed wrong-- he thought she would be open to this but she wasn't, and it appears to have been frustrating to both of them. But it's not abusive to lay out your requirements for a long term relationship or marriage. It is abusive to have unspoken requirements and then try to manipulate the other person to meet them against your will.

The man has moved on and had a baby.  Why is she doing this now? It's bizarre. I don't like Jonah Hill or his whole "I'm a feminist anti-racist white man" shtick, and I think people are fools for falling for it.  But he's entitled to have regressive requirements for his relationships, as long as he doesn't coerce or trick people into it. [/quote]
