We should stop trying to make every possible thing enjoyable and just teach kids that, yeah, sometimes for your own benefit you have to make yourself do things that kinda suck

Just had someone in YouTube comments (I know, I know) tell me that the reason doctors require a husband's approval for sterilization surgery is because "they know that people like you make irresponsible permanent decisions" 🙄 Also this (yes, same person)

"she's got her own house she doesn't need me" "she's got a pet she doesn't need me" "she's got a high end vibrator she doesn't need me" Gents do y'all not know how to add actual value to a partner's life or what
