Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles. Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
- No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.

Maybe it's been a bit harder for this cosplaying trad-wife loony-toon to submit than she's willing to admit...???
🤷♂️ 🙄 🤡
I figure the Righteous Gemstones is about as close as it gets to the truth about these "religious advisors".
Family values am I right? Bet she has a vaginal resurrection before each wedding so she could wear white at the ceremony.
vaginal resurrection
Very true. I'm thinking it's all about the grift.
Also, I first read it as this: "...and we don’t agree on something, he gets head."
I guess that's one way to come to an agreement.
This is nothing but a counterpoint anecdote to the article (not a counterpoint to your comment).
My wife and I also mutually prefer a more traditional family dynamic for ourselves but have no belief that it's the best way or right for anyone else. We needed a tiebreaker system and for better or worse we also chose that I am the ultimate authority when we disagree.
It doesn't come up often, but when it does, more often than not, I'll choose her side over my own because if everything goes to shit she doesn't tell me I told you so because I did what she wanted, and I don't get to say it either because the final choice was mine and if I didn't put my foot down for my beliefs that's my own fucking fault.
I wish someone had laid that out for me in the beginning because I feel like I got a raw fucking deal. She gets to whine and pout and stomp her feet while I'm forced to be logical and judicious. Sometimes I want to just damn logic and demand a certain outcome just because I really want it.
Not really a point here other than, if you genuinely care for your partner, having the final say isn't all it's cracked up to be. And if someone thinks being in charge means they always get their way... I lose all respect for them.
That's not really how I would characterize it. This is a second marriage for us both so we knew that going in. But take out the condescension and of course you're spot on. Point being that still can/ought to hold true even in traditional/patriarchal family dynamics. So these tradwife folks that advocate subservience aren't even doing their own dynamic right if they make a point of removing the partnership.
