The whole "I hate my spouse" thing makes me want to gag, but it simultaneously makes me wonder if some of these people in straight marriages are unaware/closeted non-cishet people. Perhaps they were victims of hetero/amatonormativity themselves, thinking they had to/being forced to marry someone of the opposite sex, but they don't actually love the person they're with. My dad thinks this could have happened to his mom, who he suspects was aro/ace despite getting married to his dad, because they fought a lot and she didn't seem very happy in her life or her relationship. Food for thought I guess.

@GThe-su9kl

Жыл бұрын

I don't think that this is the case. My mom and dad hate each others even to this day. They were "lucky" because when they got together, divorce or separation was not stigmatized anymore so they did not have to live the rest of their lives together. I don't think that my mom is aro/ace or lesbian (I rather suspect that she might be bi, though I never asked her clearly and I don't want to "force her" into an identity). In the case of my father, it's harder to tell since I never saw him in a relationship. So, TL;DR : I think that the "I hate my spouse" trope has more to do with the mental state of a generation that lived when divorce and/or separation was illegal.

And if you're """"feminine""" like having makeup or nail art or even long hair or wear too slim of a jean or idk what other bs, then you're either gay and submissive and you do the dishes and you cook and so on because that's considered feminine. It's mind-blowing how deep these stereotypes are implanted into our brains. Just look at the way people react to dads picking up their kids at school vs mums. It should be just a normal thing but it's always "so great" and "your wife must be glad you have enough time" and so on. It's really depressing for everyone.

I’m almost positive that that’s a scam. I got one too. Please don’t trust it.

The one about the dating timeline just cracks me up. At a year into our relationship, my now-fiance and I were still frantically telling our friends that _no,_ we weren't a couple! We're just friends...who happen to spend almost every day together, and cuddle, and sometimes kiss...but it's totally platonic, seriously! This pretty much went on until the point where I went away to university, and he decided to go to the same uni the next year, so that we'd graduate together. It's now 17 years later, and we're only just now beginning to talk seriously about marriage!

Jamie telling us in every video "I just got married :) :) :)" is my favourite thing right now tbh

4:46 I mean, I'm a lesbian but my girlfriend gets me to make most big decisions because I've been looking after myself since I was 15, 13 years ago, and she's still getting ready to leave her mum's house (smart, honestly) so I have a lot more experience than her, while I get her to make smaller decisions because I get choice paralysis if it's something relatively inconsequential. It can take me 4 hours or more to decide between one dish and another for dinner any given night. Relationships work well when you fit strengths to weaknesses. If she's the better book keeper, let her do the finances, if you're the one home in the hour or two before dinner, make dinner, if you discuss the things you are and aren't good at then you can create a well functioning relationship where each person gets to play to their strengths- making everything better.

As a Chrisitan, it really upsets me when I see and hear other Christians being transphobic and homophobic; how are we showing God's love to everyone and discriminating and hating others for somethings not under their control. It just doesn't make sense to me, especially as I have many close friends that are LGBTQIA+, and am part of the community myself, it just baffles me how people who claim to do things in Jesus' name, can be so stubbornly ignorant and scorn and exclude others just for something that doesn't impact them

You seem miserable, like something is wrong, even though you like members of the opposite sex and have no laws or politicians or religions attacking you for that. So why do you treat your relationships like hostage-situations? Are you okay? Is everything alright?" It's not about, "Teh Str8 Are Awful!", or even, "Str8 People Doing Awful Things." It's more, "The way you are broadcasting to the world what it means to be cis-heterosexual does not model healthy behavior."

I once read a book on wattpad. About two boys falling in love. Their families were super religious and they were so scared to come out. But when they did, it turned out that their mothers had fantasized about how it would be if their kids got married, and they never really stopped even when both turned out to be boys. It was kinda wholesome (their dads where rude af tho)

That whole "shoes" thing is: 1, pure BS. Never happened. 2, profoundly stupid and insulting. Women telling other women they're not and can't be good enough, makes my blood boil. Love you, Jamie!

Why do I feel like the father who bought the "future hooters girl" onesie /the guy who gifts it to his friend(s) is gonna be the same individual that posts a photo on Facebook with his rifle and his teen daughter threatening to destroy whoever comes near his precious princess.

As a lot of folks know, from experience or child development classes or whatever, babies can't focus past their noses. I've seen people lay down actual newborns with their heads tilted toward each other, cooing about how they're in love and bound to get together. I've never been comfortable with this, but it feels worse as I learn more of the wide world. I also take issue with the straight culture ideas of marriage, or even relationships as a terrible fate, and the merchandising that's sprouted from that idea. I know a lot of couples who should've never dated - let alone married - and it's usually their members yelling at me to chill when I point out how messed up something is...

7:48 This is so true! I hate how when men say they could ''steal your girl'' like it's an object that mindlessly follows the strongest alpha male energy in the room.. smh

The sending pictures of her husband leaving garbage around reminds me of my mom and her friend. My dad sadly passed away just under a year ago, and though my moms friends husband is verbally abusive, so valid to need to talk about that, she complained without wondering about how my mom was feeling, as someone who doesn't even have the chance to complain about the one she loves anymore.
