Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

my favorite part, is it's never that the author of the meme is the one who just... picks shitty people. It's always the fault of the entire gender, clearly.
I've met plenty of shitty women, men, and trans folks. and plenty of great ones. It's almost as if being a shitty friend/partner has nothing to do with someone's sex or gender, and it's about their actions as an individual person. and frankly, if someone is shitty to you it's your job to end the relationship, not to continue with it and expect them to be better than they have demonstrated themselves to be. whenever my exes did shitty things, it was over and I'm glad for that because now I don't have a shitty partner that I married to and full of resentment and frustration that they refuse to take take on their fair share of adult responsibilities, who also resents me for not doing more for them while I was already doing 150%.
and almost like blaming the entire other gender is the point, because it absolves you of the responsibility of your own choices or worse, the blame of your unspoken expectations.
My husband was a champ. He worked full-time and also stayed up at night manually pumping my breast milk while I was sleeping, and he'd wake up with th baby & fed the baby & changed diapers & he cooked meals too! The only thing he didn't do is clean and that's okay cuz I loved cleaning.
The bottom panel is absolutely correct, except for the "never get married" bit. Just that chapter is wild. Not for the faint of heart but can recommend.
I always wonder what kind of point one wishes to make and what kind of responds they expect.
with this post?
it's rage bait. they want to get engagement by playing into grievance stereotypes. and people are happy to respond with either their bias confirmation or their counter-argument.
it's trolling, essentially.
The meme isn't judging all men, people. It's calling out a specific behavior and attitude. Not sure why people are so upset. Unless you actually do this, of course.
My wife is in labor as we speak! Crazy how I'm sitting here this meme feels very reIevant. I aspire to not be this guy.
And still it might happen that the outcome on her side is the same.
Post partum depression is super common, same as self-image issues, body issues and so on. Also, even if you do everything right as a husband, she's still not going to get a ton of sleep, especially if she breast feeds.
OP is an idiot for treating sex as just transactional.
And you're doom scrolling rather than helping?! Get back to it, slacker!
Congrats, though 😁
Eh it's a long process and not much going on now :-/
Bullshit. This is stupid, generalising and damaging in just the same way as memes about how women get married and stop having sex.
Those stupid sexist memes are also not about all women.
Seems like a lot of trouble could be avoided if people who don't actually want to take on the responsibilities of parenting stop reproducing.
Not a lot of people understand what parenting is going to be like before they have kids.
It might help if society was more honest about it. For starters, everyone could cut the shit with gaslighting people who say that they aren't interesting in becoming parents. It's a huge disservice to everyone involved.
This is some boomer shit
Specifically American boomer, and something that's still going on. There was a thread here on lemmy a while ago that was about how american culture is very different from much of the world in terms of how much the father does in the things mentioned here. That a lot of the world have had it kinda even for many decades and some places even centuries.
"I hate my bitch wife" is peak American boomer humor.
Its not. That is what people tell themselves to feel better.
I dunno, my ex was ok with the kids, and I was able to sleep & nurse at the same time (small boobs) but breastfeeding knocked my libido down to less than zero. Usually I run pretty hot, but while nursing it was like I couldn't care at all about sex, it felt like a chore, and when we did, I had both fear (because childbirth) and had to work just to get to a baseline level of desire at all. I always figured it was a natural birth control thing, nature helping so kids don't come too close together.
"She wanted a divorce out of nowhere!" - Every deadbeat dad.
When my daughter was born, my wife and I would take turns caring for her through the night. She pumped breast milk so I had access to food as needed on my nights, and she could breastfeed directly on her nights.
It soon became clear that our daughter preferred direct breastfeeding to the bottle, but I was much better at calming her and getting her back to sleep. The result was that I ended up covering my wife's nights more frequently because she was otherwise at home with the baby all day while I was at work and felt like she needed the break. I was also "used" to sleep deprivation from the past years when I was working full-time while also going to college full-time, and she would stay home and watch TV, read, or paint.
I was constantly exhausted for the first 6 months, until she was mostly able to sleep through most nights. I would regularly apologize to my coworkers for my reduced cognitive ability because I didn't get any sleep the previous night or two, and my boss would express how he didn't understand how I was still vertical. Thankfully they were all very understanding and accommodating, and I was at least still able to get most of my work done to our standard of quality, albeit much more slowly than usual.
I didn't have time, opportunity, or energy to even consider the prospect of intimacy at that time, so I absolutely sympathize with new mothers with absentee partners that have normal levels of energy and libido.
This is why both parents should get parental leave. I just took care of all the nights and slept through half the day while my partner handled those hours. Neither of us had to deal with sleep deprivation.
The number one way (more effective than medication) to increase a woman's libido is an extra hour of sleep. It's truly no wonder that getting negative hours of sleep for a literal year at least kills libido.
I'm pregnant and the insomnia is killing me. 4 or 5 hours a night, usually. And the poor sleep will only continue when the child is born. Everyone's talking about how men need to help more with chores and all that's true and good that you need division of labor, but even if you're good at division, the sleep loss with children is inevitable.
