Obviously, I can see the error of my ways now. I should not have dared to assert such “mansplaining” idiocy. I throw myself at the mercy of you happily married anonymous posters. The “get a divorce, girl!!!!l” posters definitely come across as stable and completely non-catty. Great advice across the board. Also, to you folks who don’t want a microwave because they magically inject cancer into your food or somehow detrimentally change its molecular structure more power to you. Lol.

I like this response best. Thanks for sharing. It’s good advice and seems reasonable. I know in the age of outrage it’s crazy to say this, but I’ve come to see women (and I dated many before marriage) as generally much more emotionally inconsistent and volatile with regard to personality. Men are just more even tempered on the whole.

Thanks to all who said I was a lesbian. That’s a nice dream, but no, I am a guy. Lotta hate on this thread, but you all do you.

Tell that to the guys who have a meltdown when their sports team loses, rage when their presidential candidate doesn't win, punch a dude at a bar for looking at him the wrong way, or retaliate against women who reject them.

Husband then proceeds to argue and disagree with almost all posters.

lolz.

I do think that I have hit my limit in the last few years in entertaining or humoring conspiracy theories, anti-intellectualism, and anti-science views. Whether it’s 71 million people believing that Trump had his election stolen from him or that he is a good president, or that microwaves cause cancer or suck all the nutrients out of food or change the chemical composition of water, or that a skin cream actually does all that it claims. Basically, I can take a joke and generally have thick skin, maybe that’s more of a male trait, and I’m sorry I don’t mean to sound misogynistic, end it is my wife’s time of the month, which again I don’t mean to sound misogynistic or patronizing, but she does get annoyed and we you get in more fights around this time, but I want to be able to speak my mind not worry about offending somebody.

Translation, you want permission to be a jerk and not suffer consequences for it.

How is disagreeing or presenting relevant, science based evidence, being a jerk? Why indulge untruths, or present a counter claim, and have to live in fear of a harsh response? Microwaves are more the enemy. Botox works, most skin creams probably don’t (except for some with very specific ingredients)...

I don’t always disagree. We agree on many things, but I would want to be with someone who would be honest rather than a yes man.

You should learn how to navigate the world, which is not to appoint yourself instructor on all things to everyone around you. If you interpret that as oppression, cool.
