NTA sis, married a man not a 3-year-old. Toxic influences.

NTA- Husband’s laziness and misogynistic views are disgraceful

NTA. Your friend is right: you knew what you signed up for when you got married ♀️

NTA: Announcing becoming a traditional housewife may reveal true intentions

Crack or meth? The real question of this comment section!

NTA. Husband’s laziness supported by both mothers. Share this post!

NTA. Surrounded by AHs and a dud of a husband

“NTA and don’t you dare think that” – Support and shut-downs!

NTA. Working wife questions cultural expectations, mom projects past experiences.

NTA: Don’t be his second mom. Leave for your child’s sake.

Comment calls out internalized misogyny, advises husband to share cooking.

NTA and for the sake of peace, leave him

NTA, but did you discuss gender roles before getting married?

NTA. The 1950s called, they want your mom and MIL back!

Strong reaction to NTA comment

Is your husband worth the sacrifice?

NTA: Gender roles are outdated. Your husband needs to step up!

“NTA. Your husband needs to step up and be supportive. “

Set boundaries now to avoid future conflicts with in-laws.

Married a child, not a man Communication is key

NTA. Marriage is a two-way street. It’s 2021, not the 1960s!
