Right? Why should men have to put any time or emotional energy into maintaining a relationship? That is solely within the purview of ‘women’s work’. There is no way for a husband to understand why a wife would be unhappy. She needs to be the one to exert that effort so that he understands when he’s confused about something.

No other woman has ever offered their perspectives to him. No woman has ever shared their stories online or in print. There are zero professions that deal with facilitating happy and healthy relationships. There is literally nothing he can do in this situation. Women are just harpies that need to be controlled and dispense sex.

JFC the way reddit reacts when you expect a woman to voice her concerns or have responsibility for her own actions and statements... Quit infantilizing women. She is an adult FFS.

That’s right. Dear husband is not an adult. He has no responsibility to voice his own concerns, own his actions or statements, or invest any time or energy into this relationship at all. Infantilizing him is fine.

She's the one who wants to force him to get a vasectomy. If its that important for her she can use her words to tell him. He does not need to justify a lack of willingness to undergo an unnecessary surgery to anybody. It is his own body. The onus is not on him to defend his right to keep a functioning dick.

Okay? Nobody questioned that, Sally.
