    the older women in my family all resent how well my partner treats me. they keep saying i better be grateful and less annoying or else he will leave me. lol, lmao. we even have a thing where if we are around family he serves me food with the woman while i sit with the men, it pisses everyone off.

      The chuds in my biological family (almost a “OOPS, ALL CHUDS!” meme) outright resented my wife because I didn’t order her around like a robot. Even the female chuds were mad that their own sunk-cost fallacy of putting up with misogynistic chud husbands for decades of their miserable lives didn’t get passed down toward her.

      Some older women one if them a midwife where really surprised about me saying that I really miss my kid and wish I was back home since I started going back to uni. Like “wow modern men really are something huh? Good for you!”. Made me real sad for them because they have kids if their own.

      Felt really weird to get lauded because I care about my own kid.

      I have the opposite experience - the older women in my family love and dote on my partner because of how sweet he is! It’s adorable. Also a little sad because I know a lot of them weren’t treated well by their (late or ex, fortunately) husbands.
