Alright, sure. But that's still just him being not just willing, but actively trying, to strip your human rights away for this magic economy and you rationalizing his actions as an acceptable compromise.
I would see that as a clear example of disrespect and disregard for my well being and the well being of people who I care about.
This isn't about finding someone just like you to love, far from it, compromise is normal and differences between people in love are wonderful. What this is about, for me anyway, is that I would draw the line at someone who is actively supporting the deterioration of my human rights regardless of how many dishes they do.
True. I mean, it's sad for her to be with someone who's got such a low bar. Does the dishes? Honey, you can use a machine for that. I'm doing them right now!
That's the opposite of why people stay together. Usually people say, "Well they have trouble doing the dishes, but at least our major beliefs are similar."
Honestly she seems pretty similar to her husband in how illogical she's being. He's like, "Well Republicans might be terrible socially but they might lower my taxes!" She says, "Well he votes for people I despise but at least those dishes got done!"
They are similar people in that they both make bad life choices. So maybe it works?
Love is not logical. If she's happy, I don't see the issue. It's up to her to decide whether she believes he's a good person, and apparently she does. Who are we to tell her she's wrong about someone we don't even know?
