Topic: Women with useless husbands

Anonymous A started this discussion 1 day ago #139,054

Lately Ive been seeing an influx of female neighbors asking me for help with miscellaneous repairs despite them having husbands/boyfriends. Like women that cook,clean do everything in the house but for some reason the guys are useless and clueless on fixing a broken water pump for a washing machine or setting up a fucking A/C window unit.

I honestly think those women need to cheat on those men because the fact they don’t do shit but have no shame letting another man fix their wife’s problems is crazy to me.

Shame? They have some poor shmuck slaving away for them free of charge! Those guys are living the life!

I don’t know I never said I work for free. So unless “hubby” suddenly decides to become a man and learn to sort the problems of his home, he and his wife are gonna have to pay me. Which of course they had to.

Well did she suck your dick or not? If you didn't get any action, it's clearly not worth learning

Simple repairs are simpler still due to YouTube. While I won’t rewire my own breaker box, I can fix all kinds of shit that used to mystify me. I always envied kids who learned this shit. My father was beyond checked out. He lived with us and maybe addressed me a couple times a month.

I think fewer and fewer men ever learn to be "handy". I don't know about the US, but a lot of secondary schools (high schools) here in Britain cut practical lessons like woodwork, metalwork, and home economics (not completely, but significantly scaled back). Gen Z and younger millennials are the least likely to have hobby projects that involve making or building, or just tinkering on something in the garage. I was lucky enough that my dad taught me basic DIY and things like wiring, but I think that sort of generational knowledge transfer is also getting rarer. YouTube is great if you're motivated to learn, but why bother when you can find someone else to do it or hire a handyman/tradesman via an app. I know people who jump on Taskrabbit every time they need a nail in the wall.

Jesus. That makes me feel less pathetic. I install tile, drywall (sometimes twice), change my outlets, disposals, you get it. I won’t change my water heater because it’s never a one for one and the last guy who did it made several modifications that would have left me lost. I have put in new sinks, but felt like a total pussy when a plumber had to help me rebalance a toilet.

Schools have gone all computer and killed shop and home economics. There are valuable skills in both. I learned early cooking and checkbook balancing in home economics. Shop taught me some basics for metal, wood, and plastic I still use.

I used to be able to go to some cheap Sunday classes at a local hardware store but it’s out of business. Contrast with my grandfather who could free cut and plane and build a large shed in a couple days. Or install a bathroom to code over a weekend.

To be fair, we have progressed to a point where knowing how to reverse a linked list might legitimately be useful in auto repair. Have you seen a Tesla?

Americans scream that the USA is a free and peaceful country with a balanced budget and then turn around and say that they never said that.
