What the fuck is with women hating men sleeping? I left multiple women because they hit me over a sleep-related event. My brother got hit with a hammer and divorced over it. My friend's sister would bang pots to wake him up if there was anything left unfinished by the time he went to sleep.

Fucking nutters out here.

This is incredibly specific and I've never encountered the women-hating-men-sleeping phenomenon before.

Do you sleep walk or something? How did you manage to upset them so much while nominally being unconscious? Your post has puzzled me.

Holy shit, people are nuts. I didn't realise it was tied into toxic gender roles like that when I saw OP's comment at first. It seems like these people are stuck in unhappy marriages/long term relationships and their partners want to hurt them in a societally acceptable way.

Edit: The youtuber is definitely pandering to a specific niche I suppose. I think other women would call her a "pick-me". Not that it invalidates what she says but seemed noteable.

"pick-me" is just the way shitty women describe women who don't hate men

[-] Hupf@feddit.org 4 points 6 days ago

It's really just ad hominem.

[-] steeznson@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Yeah mostly agree with that

If I tried to sleep longer than my ex-wife, she would "clean" very loudly in the bedroom until I got up. Conversely if I didn't want to go to bed the same time she did, she got super butthurt.

Yeah ok that is mental. I can see why she is an ex.

Edit: Just realised you aren't the OP commenter... is this really a common thing? The internet is eye-opening

Some people are insane and unfortunately it's a little too common to allow them to stay in your life.

In Norway I've heard a lot of threats of buckets of cold water to wake up a "syvsover". In not sure if I was threatened with it or subjected to it once, I'm 30 and my childhood is a little hazy.
