How did “marriage sucks“ become a meme in the first place? (meme = commonplace complaint)

Spend enough time with someone and they get on your nerves

Maybe. I’ve been home with my wife and kids since early on during the pandemic. They get on my nerves sometimes, sure, but nothing that makes me think my marriage, or marriage in general, is terrible. I still love my wife and kids, and I enjoy spending time with each of them individually and as a group. I’m nowhere near perfect, but we try to get along, try to do better, and my wife and I were together for nearly 5 years before we got married. So, we had a pretty good idea what we were getting into.

Marrying for love is a relatively new concept. If you were forced to marry some ugly ass fat French dude so your dad could get some political power, you’d probably hate marriage too. “Marriage bad” as a meme is older than the internet.

TLDR, loveless marriage can suck, alot of time marriage was more arranged then by choice and divorce was nigh impossible, so, most marriages sucked

Something like 43% of all marriages in the US end in divorce. Take into account that many people who want to, can’t due to economic or societal reasons so the number of unhappy marriages is well over half.

I’ve dated some girls that apparently had never been taught vaginal hygiene. My guess is that’s a cultural phenomenon that causes men to not want to dine on beaver. Keep it fresh.

As Cornell Health writes (NSFW diagram), seems like there’s nothing to it:

Oh no worries, I have sisters & I heard my mom teaching them when I was growing up. So I taught my exes how to do it.

Gah, as I reentered the dating world after a long (looooong) marriage, I experienced this and I am not looking forward to more of this. Glad to see someone else who has sisters and heard “the talk from mom” but at my age (40s), I should not be teaching you the very easy and basic maintenance of your vagina. As we were fooling around I could smell her more and more, and I was polite to the gal and tried to encourage her to use the lady wash setting on my bidet, “it’s a game changer”… “no thanks”. Sigh… sex was mediocre and I was done with that relationship.

My Ex-wife was never taught proper hygiene and sex was a shunned topic at her home. So when i finally broached the “smell” a few years in (20s), it was a rough time and required counseling for us both. Bidet seats about 18 years ago after a trip to Italy were a marriage/sex saver… well, somewhat. Clearly i’m divorced now, but thats a different issue.

If you had sex and she started to smell horribly within the next couple days, you probably gave her bacterial vaginosis, which is common when women have new or numerous sexual partners. Her doctor can prescribe an antibiotic and she will smell fresh again within a few days. Notwithstanding that stench which requires medical intervention, I’m pretty sure all sexually-active civilized humans wash their genitals in the shower. Strange that you think some women don’t know how to wash themselves and you think she smells bad on purpose to repel you.

Yeah that must be the reason. Not that most men don’t know how, won’t ask how, will get bored after two minutes of absent-mindedly licking the general area, or generally just won’t. 😄

Oh there is an absolute wonderland of pictures of foxes in heels and various other women’s fashion accessories out there on the ol’ interwebs. Or wearing suit jackets with ripped chests, whichever you’re into.
