We do have a mutual promise that we don’t restrict what the other watch, especially over porn. But at this rate and under this political climate it worries me when all he watches is J. Peterson and Asm*ngold.

Recently, he’s planning to ditch his 9-5 to get into streaming. I understand following your dreams instead of working hard to make some capitalists rich but streaming has become oversaturated as hell. With Twitch being a cesspool and Kick being the place where troublemakers have free reign, I worry he will get involved with the wrong crowd.

To top it off, he keeps talking about women having to do the same work as men do in the name of equality, to which I agree. But when I question how he is going to do his fair share of responsibilities if he gets nothing from streaming, he suggests me being the breadwinner until he makes it big. This is the same man who said men paying for women’s education is a dumb move because she would end up leaving him in the end.

I feel like he is just using me for sex and a future financial support. Is there anything I can even do to tell him what he’s been doing is really concerning to me?

    I’m not going to tell you what to do. I will point out that a partnership is just that, partnering on each aspect of the intersection of your lives. It means each partner contributes their share to the domestic responsibilities. When that mutual contribution ceases, the relationship ceases to be a partnership.

    As always, protect your financials. Maintain your own bank account and avoid free loaders on loan/credit paperwork. Maintain your own passwords.

    If someone wants to throw their personality at social media and see if it produces incomes, sure, why not? So long as they remain functional adults and don’t quit their day jobs until after success is proven. I think hobby sharing is where this will be the most practical. Slap a camera on your head as you do what you already do, like drawing.

    Asmon is an odd one. JP reels them in by mixing some sensical advice in with his derangement. But what the entire manosphere does is beat at men’s psyche constantly telling them to “be a man” by working only for themselves.
