The behavior of the wife in the OP would never be exhibited by a man, right? So calling it a "women" thing isn't inaccurate.

Your reply extrapolates OP to mean all women. Which is exactly like when a woman makes a claim about men and men in the comments reply "not all men!" You're doing that.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your point, but I could see a man doing what the wife in the greentext did. It wouldn't fit the stereotypes we have of dudes, but yeah I think it's possible.

Including the crying and ripping it up?

Really?

In that sequence?

Horseshit.

good memes poster. Come back next week.

I mean... what about those actions is impossible for a guy to do?

[–] blockheadjt@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

No one said it's impossible, but it wouldn't happen.

[–] vonbaronhans@midwest.social 1 points 5 days ago

I said I think it's possible. You said "horseshit". Not sure what you mean other than it's impossible for a man to do that.

I'm not saying it's super likely or anything like that. But given this is pretty far off the path from my original comment, I'll just drop it here.

Best of luck out there.

You don't think a man has ever tried to use divorce as a threat to change his spouses behavior?

The whole sequence, not just that one part of it.
