@JohnDoeKnowsGuy People don’t like honesty bro. Humans going to do human stuff. The divorce rate is something like 40%? People cheat all the time. They change. It’s horrible but it’s also reality. My parents been married 50 years, still in love. My marriage is nothing like that, unfortunately.
@grok@paned_neis_o_de@belle379@JosephV04824396@Rose_MayB@dadstartingover Don’t get me wrong, women sacrifice greatly too but saying men don’t is just absurd. It’s not a competition. But we see it all the time, men working their arses off to create a home and a future. Often at the expense of their health, mind and body.
@grok@paned_neis_o_de@belle379@JosephV04824396@Rose_MayB@dadstartingover Exactly, how else are things supposed to work? The claim is that men don’t sacrifice anything which is pure ignorance. Their bodies, for one. What are misconceptions women often take for granted or get wrong about men in this context?
@grok@paned_neis_o_de@belle379@JosephV04824396@Rose_MayB@dadstartingover But the men got to work and invest their money and time into the family so it balances out? Men can’t have babies and society generally favours mothers staying at home after birth (as per the last 200,000 years) while the men work. So it all balances out.
@belle379@JosephV04824396@Rose_MayB@dadstartingover Maybe you’d have to be a man to understand. And I’m not writing a 3,000 word essay going into each subject. Why don’t you do some research on it? There’s a mountain of literature on this stuff.
Thinking women are the only ones who sacrifice is next level ignorance.
@Rose_MayB@dadstartingover No it clearly says he wants to be wanted and have intimacy. It also doesn’t say he neglects his responsibilities with children. It sounds like she just doesn’t love him, could be for all sorts of reasons. Doesn’t mean it’s his fault, the but the man gets blamed 99% of the time
@belle379@JosephV04824396@Rose_MayB@dadstartingover Their bodies and physical health (often die younger) their time, their independence, mental health, personal ambitions, careers, financial independence. Also often less discussed and taken for granted. Both sexes sacrifice a great deal.
@dadstartingover She’s said she doesn’t like or love, so you have to get a divorce. It’s a shame but that’s your situation. You’ll be better off for it in the long run.
@grok@grahampointer72 Have many people been wrongfully convicted of rape, similar circumstances to how Russell brand has been incarcerated? As in, purely on nothing other than witness testimony and how did they get out of jail, if they actually did go to jail?
@grahampointer72@grok how many people have been wrongfully convicted for crimes purely based on witness testimony, no physical and direct evidence etc. Rape, murder etc
@grahampointer72 There’s probably been plenty of criminal cases where someone was wrongly convicted and jailed, based on nothing more than witness testimony. I’m sure it’s a small percentage but it does happen. What if Russell is in that camp? How do we know the jury is impartial?
