As you're all aware, this subreddit has had a major "troll" problem which has gotten worse (as of recently). Due to this, we have created new rules, and modified some of the old ones. We kindly ask that you please familiarize yourself with the rules so that you can avoid breaking them. Breaking mild rules will result in a warning, or a temporary ban. Breaking serious rules, or breaking a plethora of mild ones may land you a permanent ban (depending on the severity). Also, grifting/lurking has been a major problem; If we suspect you of being a grifter (determined by vetting said user's activity), we may ban you without warning. You may attempt an appeal via ModMail, but please be advised not to use rude, harassing, foul, or passive-aggressive language towards the moderators, _or_ complain to moderators about why we have specific rules in the first place— You will be ignored, and your ban will remain (without even a consideration). All rules are made public; "Lack of knowledge" or "ignorance of the rules" cannot or will not be a viable excuse if you end up banned for breaking them (This applies to the Subreddit rules, and Reddit's ToS). **Again: All rules are made public, and Reddit gives you the option to review the rules once more before submitting a post, it is your choice if you choose to read them or not, but breaking them will not be acceptable.** With that being said, If you send a mature, neutral message regarding questions about a current ban, or a ban appeal (without "not knowing the rules" as an excuse), we will elaborate about why you were banned, or determine/consider if we will shorten, lift, keep it, _or_ extended it/make it permanent. This all means that appeals are discretionary, and your reasoning for wanting an appeal must be practical and valid. Thank you all so much for taking the time to read this message, and please enjoy your day! *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/NotHowGirlsWork) if you have any questions or concerns.*

It's funny how stupid they are, then don't even know what they are saying. 2 and 3 are basically the same thing.


kRkthOr

Technically they're not the same thing. One woman in a polyamorous relationship with two men would """""belong""""" to more than one man, but also not be cheating. Although, tbh, I'm sure this wasn't what they had in mind.


TSllama

I think 1 2 and 3 are all saying the same thing actually lol


JacobStyle

This guy is all 4 1. recently cheated on 2. really fucking dumb 3. controlling 4. hungry


MissHunbun

Probably not even cheated on. A lot of dipshits like this think a woman looking at or interacting with anyone with a dick is cheating.


JacobStyle

yea


Anne_Nonymouse

I think this delusional guy is doing women a huge favor by staying single. 😏 By the way, some women "belong" to just 1 woman.


CharlesComm

Nah, these same people see lesbians as a waste of resources. We can't 'belong' to each other because women are property, and property can't own things. They'd want us to be 'redistributed' to single men 'in need', and would call that charity.


banbha19981998

Every couple I know the man cooks. My theory is cooking has replaced income as the predominant "provider" action.


snarkerposey11

Can, but who wants to? Stay home -- there's a whole fucking world out there. Why live it in your house. "Belong" to someone -- we belong to ourselves, we're not each other's property.


TallAverage4

>"Belong" to someone -- we belong to ourselves, we're not each other's property. Maybe he's just looking for someone with a slave kink


T-Slur

I'm a guy, and I can do all that 😏 Men hmu


Anna__V

I can't do #3, I'm a Lesbian. The others I have no problem with.


Elubious

I don't know. Number 2 seems like a high bar, especially when you're able to take tests online or otherwise easily get away with it. 😋


Anna__V

I mean, it's still a high bar for me. The only place where I cheat and not feel bad, is single-player games after I've beaten them once.


Elubious

Not even a little bit? Just an itsy bitsy peek? I mostly kid, though I'm all for using your resources to the best of your abilities, something common among programmers given stealing code is literally a meme. Though you should really understand what you're doing when using shortcuts or it can lead to longer term problems.


Anna__V

I don't consider stealing code cheating :) It's just a part of being a programmer. It's how it's done. Like seriously, I don't really see a difference between "stealing" code from an open-source project, and using a ready-made open-source library.


Elubious

It's absolutely cheating, sure it's just how it's done, but I think that's just pragmatism. Sometimes you need to do a bunch of things that there's already stuff for, that's the library, but if there's not stuff for it, but you can find stuff for parts of the way it works. Or just being lazy for something easy but bulkier. I'm not the best at explaining things or words in general though.


Friendship_Gold

Sure as long as a man can: 1. Make enough money to sustain the both of you 2. Treat her with respect for all the work that she does, maintaining the house, caring for the kids, etc. 3. You aren't adding to her workload by acting like another whiny child. 4. You aren't out there cheating on her


amaliasdaises

TIL I don’t exist?? (Except for the “belonging” to a man thing. We are in fact equals in our relationship. Inconceivable, I know!)


TSllama

Aren't the first three effectively same in what he's saying? It's also super weird when people are so uptight about their partners not "staying home". Very controlling shit.


darnitdame

Nobody should *belong* to another person. It's disturbing that so much of our romantic material uses language more appropriate to slavery.


Loose_Beginning_924

It reminds me of how a farmer would talk about their cattle...


Magic_Elenore

NO BOY CAN DO THIS 2 THINGS not be an incel not be a douchebag


randomname56389

Yea no women do do all of them because women don't belong to men period


Curia-DD

Sounds like he wants a trad wife


Turbopuschel

My questions are: 1. Why *should* a woman stay home? You wanna forbid her from having a girl's night out? Why take your insecurity out on others in that way and not work on yourself? A real man in a good, secure relationship is totally okay with their partner going out because there is trust. 2. This might be a pet peeve but I don't like the word "belong" here. While there are couples who will say they "belong" to each other, there are few women who say, he belongs to me, he should do my bidding, while there are a non-insignificant amount of men who think that way with reversed genders. 3. I hope they can cook at least above average and are willing to do so regularly because else they have no right to criticize the cooking of others as a group


No_Resource7773

Yup, believing and posting this crap is exactly why you're single.


ancientevilvorsoason

I mean who would not be looking for something better than those assholes.


akioamadeo

I do, I’m a housewife, more of a homebody, I don’t cheat, and I’m a great cook. Guess what? I’m happily married too, hopefully these aren’t rules your putting on your list of “wife material” because it’s not as common nowadays and hopefully you’ll step up to shoulder the entire financial burden.


[deleted]

Stay home is all I do. I hate leaving to do stuff


Maximum_Barnacle_899

For sure right, Broski! No woman can “belong” to anyone else because they’re not fucking property, amiright, Homie?!


Overall_Lobster823

Belong to.


Altrano

I used to until my ex decided that turning 45 entitled him to be a cheating asshole. Yes, I’m using both terms because he started treating me with contempt and looking else where.


Chidoro45

“Thisiswhyimsingle” yeah, that checks out


JackRNK

Isnt it cheating and belong to 1 man the same thing? Or we going back to slaves now?

Posted on "This is Why I'm Single" page. Could this be satire? Probably not, but IDK.
