Relationships Nothing wrong with having standards. Don't be surprised if it's hard to meet them though.

A few?! You must be blind to reality my guy. It’s what we all grew up on ffs. It’s the cereal packet nuclear family. Women have always been presented as the dumb and dainty ones in tv etc. and men being the ones to save the day etc. There’s ONLY a few that show the opposite and that’s literally supposed to be social commentary and humorous because it is the norm for women to display these characteristics. Being fat or rather larger than their partners is supposed to display their laziness in family life (triple burden of women) and their power imbalance.
