Since this post will be current until January, thought I'd be salty/have fun with it. Let's see if we get Bingo, shall we?

It was deleted, but from context, I'm guessing they were upset over the term "Malewife" which... like... I can get how someone can not understand the term immediately, but if they take like... 5 seconds to look at examples of what folks call a Malewife, they'll see it's not a transphobic moniker.

I mean, my fav example of a malewife is fucking HANNIBAL LECTER (from the show, not the films). He's domesticated as fuck, with some serious nesting/paternal instincts (albeit fucked up ones) but is still masculine as all get out. It's literally an endearing/funny/alternative name for Househusband. (Also, malewife, in my experience, tends to be given to a masc partner who can be utterly soft or practically become a fuckin himbo when around their families.)

(My partner is masc nonbinary and was the one who gave birth to our kid, and loathes the term wife/mom etc, but isn't entirely okay with husband, either. They LOVE the term malewife for themselves.)

ty for the links so we can see this trainwreck in action lmao

It never occurred to me that something soft and silly like 'malewife' could be taken so seriously and seen as derogatory. You learn something new everyday..

Also my first time hearing it, and I'm kind of cringing too, but for personal-damage reasons. I'm uncomfortable with metrosexuals too, for crying out loud - basically anything that says 'This here is a guy doing girliness right, go him' makes my brain jump right to 'Lol, and here we have a cis female who can't even do girliness right'.

ngl i have a pretty large hateboner for the term, because i've primarily seen it used alongside implications that the "malewife" is usually the submissive partner and im sick to death of both "domesticity = female" and "feminine = submissive." and it reminds me of when people act like bottom and submissive (or top and dominant) are inherently the same thing, which i also hate.

but i also recognize that gender is fucky and people personally resonate with all kinds of things for all kinds of reasons, none of which they owe me or anyone else explanations for
