    Men are allowed to like cute things too, and it takes a lot of effort to make food cute. I’m sure he appreciates the love and work she puts into meals for him

    Heck, I’m middle-aged and still enjoy making cute lunches for myself

    49 year old dude here, skilled labor job, gruff, grungy, rough around the edges, etc. etc.

    I would fucking love these. I’d show every single one of them off to my coworkers and talk about how damn cool they are. This is spousery at its finest.

    Anyone who sees something wrong with this is just a jealous, insecure asshole.

    I was getting gas this morning. A guy in front of me in line bought 2 slim jims, a string cheese, an energy drink, some pringles, and 2 meat sticks from the counter container thing. The guy behind the counter dropped the meat stick on the counter and the guy grabbed it and started eating it anyway.

    This is what comes of some men left to their own devices. If she wants to make him lunch, let her do it.

      Some men will definitely do a lot better than that on their own, and some women will do way worse. I’ve seen women who get too lazy to cook and their dinner literally becomes cigarettes and beer or wine. And then they wonder why their mental health struggles are difficult, when the most effort they’ll put into a healthy meal is… Peel banana.

      But how spouses split responsibilities is no one’s business. Fucking losers trying to demean a dude for having a wife that cares that he eats well.
