This generation of men has a peculiar dream:
They want a woman who’s independent enough to pay half the mortgage,
…but traditional enough to still rub their feet. 🧦
They want her to work full-time, pay bills, kill spiders, AND roast a Sunday chicken with rosemary and gratitude. 🍗✨
They want a CEO in the streets, and a 1950s housewife in the sheets.
Strong enough to carry the emotional labour AND the groceries.
Soft enough to cuddle, but tough enough to survive their emotional unavailability.
They want her to be submissive…
…but also pay for Netflix. And petrol. And therapy. 🧾
🧠Neuroscience flash: The prefrontal cortex (responsible for decision-making and planning) seems to go offline when some men dream up this double standard.
You can’t expect traditional submission while playing modern video games 12 hours a day. 🎮
You can’t demand a feminine goddess when you bring toddler-level emotional regulation and a “what do you even do all day?” attitude.
Let’s not forget:
Traditional women had traditional men.
She cooked because he hunted.
She cleaned because he built the house.
She made dinner because he paid the mortgage.
She submitted because he led with integrity, provision, and protection.
Not Instagram reels and gaslighting.
⚖️ You want a soft, feminine woman?
Be the kind of man her nervous system can relax around.
💪 If she’s working 40 hours a week, you’d better be working 60.
If she’s providing, you better be multiplying.
If she’s leading emotionally, spiritually, and financially—
Then you, sir, are not a partner. You’re a dependent. And not even the cute kind.
So here’s a little brain-friendly PSA:
🧠Dopamine feels nice, but it won’t make her respect you.
đź‘‘ Respect comes from consistency, responsibility, and actual contribution.
Either step up…
Or stop demanding things your effort hasn’t earned.
Because no woman wants to be the man and the woman in a relationship.
That’s not romance.
That’s burnout.
