This just gives women an out to subvert their husband's authority by claiming he is no longer an effective leader therefore usurping his position. It essentially gives her power of impeachment which is not how marriage is supposed to work.

One of the great things about having toddlers is that you get to feel like one of the great comedic performers of our age. Tonight I picked up a plastic toy horse and made the wrong animal noise for it (āmoo,ā which is traditionally for a cow not a horse) and the bit absolutely killed with the 4 and under demo in my house. The encore performance was even better received. I am a genius of improv comedy as far as my toddlers are concerned.

Mexico ceded 55% of its territory to the USA in order to reach a peaceful settlement in the Mexican/American War, as they knew there was no way they could defeat us militarily.

Yes, the meaning of the Greek word submission has the connotations of military officer serving under a general.
Accepting his instructions on what is the desired objective of the mission and executing it using thier own abilities and resources at thier disposal.

Subir salarios por decreto es fĆ”cil. Crear una economĆa capaz de pagarlos es otra historia.
Women sometimes claim not to care about a man's wealth, but they want the lifestyle and excitement that wealth can bring.
Don't hate, just inform and allow them to understand thier preferences as female.
Women with under $100k to their name are as likely to call travel a priority as millionaire men.
The gender gap holds at every level of wealth.

Elon Musk reveals that an ex-Tesla employee who assaulted a woman for stepping on his prayer rug went on to kill three students in Austin.
MUSK: "We had someone who was working at the Tesla factory in Austin until December of last year. He was fired because he assaulted a woman who stepped on his prayer rug in the factory. Okay. So she wasn't expecting anyone to be praying in the factory, and he was praying in the factory. She accidentally stepped on his prayer rug, and he assaulted her. He violently assaulted her. So he was fired for that, and then a few months later, he went and killed three students in a bar in downtown Austin. Now, I think we shouldn't let people like that into the country. Do you?"
No, a woman doesn't naturally submit to a husband. Even a 'good' one. "And you will desire to control your husband, but he will rule over you.ā Genesis 3:16

Putin explained the whole war in two sentences, then gave Europe some free advice:
"America started the war believing it could destroy Russia. Europeans joined in, hoping they could finally get access to Russian resources, as they sometimes managed to do in the past.
But they should study history. It would immediately show them that this idea is foolish."

Take a normal woman, a 5, and have her go out with 10 guys who approached her.
Maybe she gets 1 boyfriend. Maybe zero. And even if she gets 1, there's a good chance she's a forever girlfriend.
Now take a 7+ woman & have her do the exact same thing. She probably has 8/9 of those guys wanting to be her boyfriend, & they'll shower her with affection & nice dates to get there.
The lesson for the 5 woman isnāt "give up."
Itās volume. Stacy might need 15 dates to get 10 potential boyfriends. The 5 might need 100+. But you only need 1 of those 100 men to be your boyfriend...
Thatās life. Itās unfair. Play the hand you were dealt instead of complaining about the cards.
Take a normal 5ā8 guy and have him approach 10 women at a bar with a completely normal opener.
āHey, howās your night going?ā
Maybe he gets 1 number. Maybe zero. And even if he gets one, thereās a good chance it goes nowhere.
Now take the 6ā2 attractive guy and have him do the exact same thing. Heās probably getting 8/9 numbers and can get laid with multiple same night.
The lesson for the 5ā8 guy isnāt āgive up.ā
Itās volume. Chad might need 15 approaches to get 10 numbers. You might need 100+. But you only need one of those 10 to turn into your girlfriendā¦
Thatās life. Itās unfair. Play the hand you were dealt instead of complaining about the cards.

Women always say: "A man isn't automatically the leader just because he's a man. Marriage is partnership."
Ok.
FEMALE DOCTORS: You make $300K. There's a loyal, hardworking security guard making $35K ready to marry you tomorrow.
Marry him. Pay the mortgage. Finance his life. Lead the house.
If it's just love and partnership, why does his income disqualify him?
FEMALE MILLIONAIRES: Stop demanding a man on your level. Find a hardworking man making $40K. Build him up. Pay his bills. Give him the lifestyle rich men give their wives every day.
If money doesn't determine worth, practice what you preach.
REGISTERED NURSES: You make $90K. A carpenter makes $65K. He's faithful, responsible, hardworking. Why isn't he enough? Why is the doctor automatically the better catch?
I'll tell you why.
A rich man marrying a poorer woman is normal. No one questions it.
But a successful woman says her husband MUST earn more, and we're supposed to pretend money doesn't affect her attraction?
Stop lying.
YOU CANNOT DEMAND TRADITIONAL MALE RESPONSIBILITY WHILE MOCKING TRADITIONAL MALE AUTHORITY.
You want him to approach, provide, protect, pay, fix, solve, and take the hit when it all fails.
But when he expects more say in a house HE'S financing, suddenly marriage is partnership?
You want equal authority but not equal RESPONSIBILITY .
You want a captain when the ship is sinking, and no captain when it's time to steer.

The problem with modern sex/dating comes down to three points
1. All sane rules for regulating sex/dating involve a radical contraction of female sexual optionality.
2. Women donāt want men to regulate female sexual optionality because that feels āoppressiveā.
3. Women donāt want to regulate each others sexual optionality because that makes them look like āpick meāsā.
Thus, no change ever occurs, even though almost everyone understands that something needs to be done.

How would the Washington and Jefferson feel about you taxing 25% of American blue collar earnings just to spend $200 billion in Ukraine, Bill?
Reagan and Lindsey would be ashamed of this.

"nooooo you can't feel discomfort in your biology and then just grow into appreciating it with time & the experience of falling in love with a man who inspires your femininity!!"

My brother-in-law finally got pre-approved last week.
He and his wife make $148,000 combined. Theyāve been saving for four years.
They found a 3-bed for $425,000. Twenty percent down would be $85,000.
At 7.4% the principal and interest alone is $2,360 a month.
Taxes and insurance push it over $2,900.
Their current rent is $1,850.
The lender said they qualify, but after daycare, car payments, and groceries theyād have under $200 left.
He ran the numbers again this morning with the new rate lock.
They decided to keep renting and put the down-payment money in a high-yield account instead.
The house is still listed. Three other families I know looked at it this week and walked for the same reason.
