Would you marry a person who didn't want to work.

[Beso]

Yes or no.

[Niamh.]

Depends what the reason for their unemployment was

They had never worked before.

[Niamh.]

They had never worked before.

Just because they didn't want to? No I doubt I would

Ok

[Beso]

Thank you.

[Cherie]

No! That said it depends what the arrangements are, say if I was a high flyer and I was happy to follow my career while the other half looked after the kids, or if no kids did all the cleaning, cooking, washing etc, I guess that would be fine

[Cherie]

but don't expect me to stagger in at 7pm and put on a wash :nono:

[Marsh.]

I would marry an unemployed person.

"Someone who doesn't want to work" is very different. They don't want to work because they inherited 20 million so actually don't have to? Don't want to work because they feel they have a full time job at home with kids and everything else?

Demonising the unemployed as "people who don't want to work" is a simplistic generalisation.

[Beso]

Interesting poll results so far, looks like it may go the way I expected.


If only more people would vote to see.

[Josy]

If they had good reason ie medical etc then yes.

If they were just a flat out lazy bastard then it's a big ol nope from me.

[Beso]

Can everyone vote in this please.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

I wouldn’t marry anyone

[Dogeatdog]

If they had good reason ie medical etc then yes.

If they were just a flat out lazy bastard then it's a big ol nope from me.

Pretty much this tbh.

and that is the thread title :shrug:

[Josy]

Chose no in the poll due to the title saying someone who didnt want to work

[Strictly Jake]

Dont know how to answer. My wife doesnt work as we already have 2 kids under 5 and a baby in just a few weeks so my wife hasnt worked for a few years now and wont go back to work for another 2 years yet. But it works for us. I get how it is a full time job looking after young kids and running a home so its not like she doesnt work. So I guess I will say Yes I would.

[Crimson Dynamo]

if the intention of the tread is to illustrate a lazy bastard NO

i work hard long hours and expect my partner to do the same :oh:

unfortunately the TL is a lazy ***and gets a kings ransom for diddly squat

but then again that is why i love her :love:

[thesheriff443]

well gold diggers don’t work instead give sexual favours and men are happy to marry them pretty much like footballers wife’s.

[thesheriff443]

Then on the flip side you get women who complain because their partner works to much and they don’t get enough time together.

It’s a funny old game.

[Josy]

It’s a funny old game.And both of these posts could be applied to men too yeah?

[thesheriff443]

Then you get couples that work but don’t put equal amounts into the relationship in terms of money.

[thesheriff443]

No not in general, it’s not sexist it’s just the way of the world.

[Josy]

No not in general, it’s not sexist it’s just the way of the world.Screams of sexism to me tbh

well the TL is using her dead mums money to do the kitchen and bathrooms and i said when my old mum dies i will do the bedrooms and living room

you have to have a system

I’m sorry it’s every day examples that are relivent to the thread.

[smudgie]

Yes.
If I loved them.:shrug:
Life is never that black and white.
As long as you can get by in life.

My son hasn’t worked in his old career since he met his wife.
She is American, the 8 hour time difference was too much to handle when she was ill, he used to read to her to sleep over the internet.
He helps run her many businesses now they are married, but doesn’t actually have a job at the minute, firstly down to green card issues, the relocating back here.
Big plans on the way.

Almost the opposite of Harry and Meghan. :joker:

You can’t knock that.

I live on my own with my daughter who is autistic with a rare metabol condition and has mental health issues i jugle work with taking care of my daughter I cook and clean our house.

People throw around sexism but I’ve had to be mum and dad for most of my daughters life.

Words fail me , she’s fortunate to have such a great father with a tremendous attitude to life .
I’m on the spectrum myself and it is complex business. In my case the negatives kinda outweigh the positives .

Your daughter has a wonderful dad sheriff.

[Marsh.]

and that is the thread title :shrug:

Exactly, a different one to the poll question. A muddled and not very well thought out thread.

What has that got to do with sexism though?

Josy simply pointed out the two examples of relationships you stated previously could apply to men as equally as women. And they can, I've heard men complain about the hours their wives work as much as the other way around.

It depends on the job they have, not their gender.

[Jake.]

Which are we answering? The thread title or the question in the poll?

How can you answer both? I answered the thread question on the poll

[Cherie]

I didn’t notice the different questions :laugh:

[Zizu]

Yes or no.



Depends

If they looked like Michelle Keegan for example- yes of course

Sorry Cherie. .it's hard enough starting a poll let alone get the correct questions.


Basically the question is..would you marry someone who is willing to be supported all thier married life.



Im guessing men will say yes..and women will say no..

Looks like I'm not far off.

[Marsh.]

But now you're asking a third question "Would you marry someone who is willing to be supported all their married life?". That's not the same as either the thread title or the poll question. :shrug:

[Niamh.]

Fgs..

Just something popped up on my Facebook about most men willing to marry a non working women and support them..whilst most women wouldn't do the same if it were reversed. .

Im shute at polls and questions....gimme a break fgs.

[michael21]

You are all silly the titles says world you marry a person who dose not want to work that don't mean there not working just there don't want to

[Mystic Mock]

Why wouldn't I?:laugh:

[bots]

whether someone wanted to worked or not would not be criteria for me in making a marriage decision

[Kazanne]

If they had good reason ie medical etc then yes.

If they were just a flat out lazy bastard then it's a big ol nope from me.

This ^

I'll be teaching my son not to pay for a lazy ****er as well :nono: Bit different though if say one of the couple is a stay at home parent. There's too many variables to give a yes or no answer really

[Beso]

Would you be willing to support your future spouse for the rest of thier lives on your wage alone.

[Cal.]

I don’t feel comfortable voting in the poll bc of the way it’s worded but I would marry an unemployed person if they had a reason for it. Simply not wanting to work like you put it, no I wouldn’t! I deserve a hard working man!

[Josy]

yes if they would go full Tradwife

[Beso]

yes if they would go full Tradwife

I knew you were a yes...really.

[Jigs]

Yeah I would. A persons employment status doesn't dictate what kind of person they are. If I loved em, I'd marry em! Job or no job!

[Livia]

If they were solvent in some way... had some kind of income but didn't work, then yes. Otherwise... no. A relationship is a partnership, there's no room for a passenger 100% of the time.
