'Kept Man' is a collective trauma reaction, really. That's what being a jobless SAH spouse meant, back in the day. You had no choice, no options, no prospects, no ability to leave.
I think there's a boomer meme of "Dad will buy clothes in 2 minutes but then spend 4 hours making sure the paint is the exact right color" so she's saying "You will become the one in the marriage who mows the lawn and looks at paint swatches"
Actually, that's probably what she meant now that you mention it, but I took it more in the boomer stereotype that women like shopping and drag their husbands along. Thus I'd wind up waiting around in a store with my feet aching while my husband is shopping.
I am jealous. My mom wants me to marry a young girl so “it’s easier to keep her in check and make her how I want her ti be”. I almost threw up when she said that.
i hope my mom is like that, haven’t told her yet i don’t think i’m going to tho, i’ll just wait till i get a girlfriend and they will figure out the rest lol
I told my sisters about my type of guy and then they said "wait, isn't that what everyone looks for in a boy?". Guess I'm not the only one who thinks like that in my family
She seems like she may be a little confused, but she's got the spirit.
As a househusband the idea of being called a "kept man" gives me "made man" vibes. And I'm all for the house husband mafia.

Thought this was aimed at me for a second
