My wife married into my Warhammer collection. We have a Warhammer room. I'm pretty sure she doesn't even like Warhammer but has her own painted figurines.

"Let me tell you something. I have not controlled a SINGLE financial decision in this house since 1987 and I am PAYING for it. I put a ROOF over this woman's head for 40 YEARS and somehow SHE controls the checkbook. Every week she does the shopping WITHOUT me, like I am not the one whose PENSION is funding the whole OPERATION. I fought for this country and I cannot get a peanut butter with some TEXTURE because apparently BARBARA knows best about EVERYTHING now."

Exactly. It's that tired old stereotype that you either have to have an adversarial relationship with your SO, or let them have their way all the time... Did you not both agree to a partnership!?

I think it's from a time when people(both men and women, but mostly women) married for social and economic reasons. Those reasons kept people in relationships who had long since checked out.

Now it resonates with fewer people because women can leave bad relationships more easily.

That's also why I assume the manisphere is a thing because there are a lot of sour people who are upset they are not owed a person just for existing.

Relationship dysfunction is just assumed to be an unalterable, unavoidable feature of reality for Boomers, so, much of their humor is literally them coping with their inability to be fully functional people.

In I guess fairness to them: What do you expect from a generation raised by parents with undiagnosed PTSD?
