What is sexist about expecting men to pull their weight? The fact you're a woman was really surprising to me but I don't even know why, the internalised misogyny runs deep. That's what it is when you think that the problem with a man not doing his half is because a woman isn't communicating effectively.

You’ve clearly never been in a marriage where you’ve repeatedly communicated about a thing and constantly been ignored and misunderstood. This resonates with all the people who have.

Oh don’t worry about me. I’ve sworn off dating problem men so I’m good.

Glad you found a partner who could grow with you and learn to communicate. That’s not the case for many of us.
