I'm not saying your friends are like this, but here's a data point: I had a guy friend who also was very scornful about men who couldn't take care of themselves and needed their girlfriend/wife to do the majority of the cleaning, cooking, mental labor, etc. Then I pointed out that he hadn't cleaned his own bathroom since his girlfriend moved in. That when they were dating he used to plan and cook a romantic dinner (he's not a chef, but he can cook some things) every weekend, and now she does the cooking and on his nights, he'll get takeout or they eat frozen pizza. I asked him when the last time he planned a date or special Valentine's day event for his girlfriend, because for his birthday she ordered his favorite cake from his favorite bakery and invited all their friends over for a taco bar, AND bought him a smart watch that he wanted. Crickets...

It was a wake-up call he needed, but you know, it's not uncommon for people to criticize others for faults they also have. My friend wasn't some Andrew Tate-listening douchebag, and he wasn't trying to pull a bait and switch on his gf. He was just a regular guy who tried hard when he wanted to impress a woman, and then after they were in a committed relationship he (probably) subconsciously felt like he didn't need to try hard anymore because mission accomplished. That's also not uncommon.

Every goddamm moid I've ever known in my life is like this. Puts in effort until she starts fucking him on the regular then he stops giving a shit because he's getting his dick wet and that is literally all they care about.

That's hardly something that's exclusive to guys, though. I've dated women who were the exact same way where they put in a ton of effort in the initial courting stage but then once things got comfortable, they got lazy. I think that's just a general relationship problem that happens when people get complacent and no longer feel like they need to be going all out because now they have the person and are in a relationship.

I didn't say anything about this being exclusive to men. My remark was addressed to the anon who was talking about their male friends mocking men like the ones described in the secret, implying that such men must be rare.
