Note that the original poster still “put all the appointments in the family calendar and [her] husband checked it and kept them”!!
Honestly, this is the end game for why we vet for men who are able to plan dates! If he can’t research a restaurant and call to make a reservation, how do you expect him to call to schedule doctor’s appointments for your children just because you eventually reproduced with him?
Though maybe a more generous reading of that would be she and her husband can both make appointments for the kids, that's why there's a family calendar to keep track of it all.
And not that she has to make all the appointments herself because her husband is too incompetent to do that despite being relatively more competent than some other men? 😆
Testing grown men to see if they possess basic life skills: this is what their incompetence as a group has reduced us to. 🤣
Preach! Isn't it ridiculous how we can NOT assume that any grown man we date will be able to plan basic meals, make appointments, keep the house acceptably clean and regularly wash his ass? Every woman I know comes with these features pre-installed. And then they have to waste their time on men who don't possess even the most basic of foundations when it comes to being an adult. Pathetic. “WhAt dO YoU BrInG To tHe TaBlE” – the fact you don't have to teach us how to have a decent level of functioning and responsibility and that you can rest assured you'll get a pretty great woman with minimal vetting. Men don't see this for the luxury it is.
As a woman who used to be that 6 year old (I bet most of us have been that 6 year old), this shit e n r a g e s me. I literally had a physical reaction to reading this because it takes me back to my father calling me "the little woman of the house". FUCK THAT. And then they wonder why I have zero desire to have kids of my own 🙃
It also makes it hard to have sympathy for the women who do this to their daughters. I get that we have all been brainwashed by patriarchy, but the fact that you'd rather overload your small child with non-age appropriate responsibilities than demand that your so called "man" behave like an adult is so... pathetic. Ugh.
To this day, my dad tries to outsource basic house chores to me when he gets the chance. And he also loves lecturing me on the “right” way to do things, lol. He'll go on my nerves for opening the bathroom window after I shower instead of already having it open during the shower. When he's off from work he literally only watches TV and drinks beer, but the fact that he nitpicks me on minor stuff shows that he DOES know how things should be done, he just doesn't want to do them himself.
I especially see this in low income areas where being a pick-me is basically still a survival strategy, low income mothers always make their daughter grow up way too early just because the males suck ass and they can't live without the D for five months so they'd rather traumatize their daughter calling her "momma" or legit calling women my age "mommy" because they think everyones signing up for that bullshit In the future, like nah I'm good lol. Anyone who doesn't suffer is "a loser who'll die alone" like yeah bruh I'll take dying alone over being murdered in my sleep by the man who can't make a salad or do laundry
I literally know a family where the *step-mother* was gone for three days. The man, the father of this 6 year old girl, fed his own child nothing but candy for 3 days straight.
Read the first put where it stops at "this is apparently weird" to a man. Vet him on his response. If he doesn't understand why that would be weird and he expects any dad to be able to handle doing that then that's a good sign..

I'd rather be alone than with a moron.
I'm sick of this little pickme misery club where you can only be in the club if you let men walk all over you.
