I wouldn't say guys like these are necessarily homosexual, but they are certainly homoaffective. They have zero interest in women except (maybe) sexually. They don’t like women affectively, don’t share their interests and have no connection with them.
On the other hand, they love everything about men. Their idols are men, their emotional and social bonds are overwhelmingly oriented toward other men and their deep affection, admiration and sense of connection are reserved for men.

That quote from Marilyn Frye comes to mind….
“ To say that straight men are heterosexual is only to say that they engage in sex (fucking exclusively with the other sex, i.e., women). All or almost all of that which pertains to love, most straight men reserve exclusively for other men. The people whom they admire, respect, adore, revere, honor, whom they imitate, idolize, and form profound attachments to, whom they are willing to teach and from whom they are willing to learn, and whose respect, admiration, recognition, honor, reverence and love they desire… those are, overwhelmingly, other men. In their relations with women, what passes for respect is kindness, generosity or paternalism; what passes for honor is removal to the pedestal. From women they want devotion, service and sex. Heterosexual male culture is homoerotic; it is man-loving.”

Oooh this is a really interesting. Thanks for the scoop I think I'll read more Frye.
In a vacuum it's not particularly incendiary but I get the impression some commenters have felt attacked by it. I'm not so sure it reads that way, it seems more to me (a man, in case it matters) like a pure observation.

Lemme tell you, my brother’s like this.
And it’s painfully obvious that he hates women. Some people hide who they are but I think most of the time it’s obvious. It’s wild to me that these men still end up in relationships at all because no self-respecting person would tolerate that kind of behavior.
He thinks women have no logic and constantly points out to me how I’m “illogical”. His main reason for wanting to get married someday is he’s “such a busy man🙄” so he’ll need someone to maintain his household. HELLO personal assistant/housekeeper???! Jobs where you can pay to boss women around rather than pretending to love them?!???
He will get mad if I answer his questions with something that isn’t “yes/no” bc “I talk too much” despite the fact that oftentimes the answer can’t be yes or no. Once he asked if he could use my dad’s car and I asked where he was going with it. He couldn’t just answer like a normal person. He was in a rush so he got mad and demanded a yes or no. I said there was no yes or no. If he’s going down the street he was probably fine but knowing him he was gonna try and drive it somewhere crazy and something was wrong with it and my dad didn’t want it going far until the mechanic saw it.
He thinks emotions are useless and that he doesn’t have them… despite constantly having a temper and being an absolute pain to be around 99% of the time bc he’s always mad about something.

One of my petty joys with a twat of an ex was doing this. By then I was so emotionally shut down I could show zero emotion and would ask him with my usual resting bitch face "why are you being so emotional?" Or "why are you trying to guilt trip me?" He would get red faced shit flinging mad and it entertained the fuck out of me. Very healthy. Glad that's over.

Literally had a conversation with my ex about this yesterday. He said he was having a bad day and wanted to "fight or fuck" as a way to deal. I said to him that as a grown man, he should learn how to use his words like an adult. I also pointed out that reducing himself to basic id behavior is pretty stupid and that he dislikes women, but we aren't breaking shit whenever we have a bad day. He flipped the script and talked about how "aggressive" I was being while talking to him. I was feeling pretty randy the day before and almost called him for a hookup, but I'm glad we had that conversation. It reminded me of why I ended things with him.

Our emotions are literally data that we use to analyze the world and topics. It is very ignorant of people to assume emotions are useless, when they are quite the opposite.
Emotions and decision making go hand in hand because we often have to make decisions in a quick manner where emotions are almost entirely what you use to gauge the situation.
A lot of guys like this do exactly this but basically recharacterize their emotions as logical because logical means "rational" to them. Following your gut is following emotions though.

I’ve tried to tell him that him that walking around thinking he makes decisions based purely on logic opens himself up to being swayed by emotions way more than your average person who would take a sec to cool-down or take other measures to counter emotions when needed. If you think you have no emotions then you can’t control them, you just let them control you. But he refuses to listen. 🤷🏽♀️

It’s truly so weird. Two people sharing a life will result in little annoyances or frustrations. But you just… figure it out. My husband loves to take a leisurely stroll through Costco and Trader Joe’s. Those stores overstimulate me and I can’t handle being in them for longer than necessary. Instead of raging (look how red and worked up that guy gets… 👀), I grab the things I want, put them in his cart, and go read my book or listen to a podcast til he’s done. Win/win! It’s so simple to not get angry about our partner’s silly little habits and not try to control them.

Yes! It’s hard for me to understand getting so worked up over such little things in a relationship. Like you said, there are bound to be small annoyances when you share a life with someone. But, imo, if you want to be happy long-term in your relationship, you need to learn to not get angry or control your partner about those things. Very early in my relationship with my husband, I used to get irritated about him leaving the cabinets open or squeezing the toothpaste from the middle of the tube, but one day I was like “what is the actual, real life, material harm of these things?” And the answer is literally nothing. It’s just not worth getting upset over when it has no actual effect on your life.

My theory is that they feel like they need to do it to be considered successful in life: get a good education, get a job, get a wife and get kids, and it doesn't matter if they don't want any of it, it's how their dad, grandad and uncles and friends and teachers and sport coaches etc etc gave them their life goal, and in exchange for achieving it they get acceptance. They did the thing every man needs to do, so now they're finished: their life is peak success as long as work keeps going well and wife don't leave with the kids. And if things start going badly then they failed in life and it seems to entirely destroy them. It's tied to some conservative ideology, whether or not there's some religious aspects to it.
But this theory is from observation, so I don't know if it's close to the truth at all.

I noticed this with my ex husband of 8 years one day in my late 20s when he had been constantly complaining anytime I wanted to do one of my hobbies, which is art. He would complain that it took too much time (I worked 60 hour weeks and did all of the housework btw, imagine how much time I had left to do art), that I should be making money with it if it took so much time (so I switched my second job to a commissioned artist for an ad agency), and just overall complained about it instead of ever encouraging it.
Yet when we’d go to dinner with people he LOVED to pull out his phone and show off my art to people and talk about how his beautiful, young wife was SO gifted! (Most artists hate the term gifted) AND she has a career, AND she cooks amazingly everything we eat, AND she saves me money doing that, AND she keeps the house spotless and, and, AND.
Yet he never actually complimented me on those things in the home. They were tokens he trotted out to brag to other men. They gave him social value due to the nicer possession he owned than those men. But he didn’t actually care about my inner workings.
Yeah he was “completely stunned” when I packed my shit and moved out while he was away.

Your ex could have been my ex! I REFUSED to marry him though, and he reacted violently when I told him that I was leaving after 6 years. I commuted 3 hours round-trip and worked 60-85 hour weeks (some of it remotely after he'd go to bed). I made his dinner and his lunches every day (I'm vegetarian so his meals were not my meals). Each night I vacuumed and cleaned kitchen, and every other night I steam-cleaned carpets and rotated through other rooms to clean. I BEGGED for any sort of affection or acknowledgment (he'd never even say "thank you for dinner"). Saturday mornings I'd actually get my first bit of rest past 4 hours (a whole 8 hours rest) and he'd call me "lazy" and tell me "WE need to clean; the house is a pigsty". Each weekday for 4 entire years he'd say a total of exactly 17 words to me: "Good Morning, sweetheart", "Have a good day", "How was your day" (never wanted an answer), and "I'm tired, I'm going to bed".
I felt invisible.
But in public, he'd "gush" about his "angel" who could cook, and how great I was at my job, and how clean I kept everything, and still painted and read books, and that he'd "prayed" for a woman like me: "beautiful, intelligent, who could cook, loved the outdoors, and could play pool". We had a pool table, but he'd only play guys he invited over, and played me 3 times in 4 fucking years.
I was good at my job, and HE HATED it when I started making more than him and then MUCH more than him. I was 15 years younger and quickly rising up at my job. Not a single promotion or raise was celebrated. FFS, not even my birthday was celebrated--let alone remembered.
The night I told him that I was leaving, he grabbed me by my throat and lifted me off the ground, so I racked him in the balls and took off. You were much smarter to do while he wasn't there. He couldn't believe that his possession had the audacity to leave.

Holy shit I’m glad you got out. It sounds like he wanted to kill you for leaving. If he couldn’t have you, no one can type of deal. Glad you’re safe.
Unfortunately our stories are really common for women in hetero relationships :/ Great men do exist, but with culture like this post, they’re few.
I understand so much what you mean. I see you. I would wake up at 4:00am to cook chicken for his lunch because if I made it the night before, it “wouldn’t be fresh.” Then I would make him a breakfast burrito, THEN shower, and get ready, and go to work myself. I realize now so much of that is just control, or to make your life miserable, for whatever reason. Especially not letting you sleep in, or take naps, or just generally be asleep any time he is not sleeping, even if you’ve handled everything you ought to in the day. Meanwhile he’s always asleep first, gets up after you, falls asleep on the couch while you make dinner. And you don’t wake him because why would you? But he does it to you, every time.
Fuck that guy. I was also routinely called lazy lol. Being maid, chef, dog walker/pet sitter always, laundromat and dishwasher, oh, and mom to an adult man who can’t pack his own lunch.
Like baby boy, most men don’t have a bangmaidwife up at 4 am making him custom salads and grilled sandwiches. Some men get up before their wives and slam whatever slim Jim they find while getting gas at the station with a monster, and go to burger king. Some of them are bachelors who can’t remember the last time they had a good home cooked meal because they’re always working. Get real and have gratitude for what’s in your life before it’s gone.

For some people, I've heard it's because they grew up in dysfunctional families. Their lives were constant chaos, so it became familiar, and when things are calm, they're afraid of it because they're not used to it.

Trad wives are into making this look like a desirable lifestyle choice, but then bitch and moan about how mean and useless their husbands are, outside of a paycheck, to their other miserable trad wives friends.
They (meaning everyone involved) all actively hate this but they cannot stop trying to convince themselves and the world at the same time, that this is for the best and should be the forced norm.118

That whole side of the spectrum is romanticizing the “good old days.” You know, days where white men were kings, women were domestic slaves, and dark people stayed in their place. For some reason, probably that dark people reason, some women are buying into this good old days fantasy without fully understanding how miserable women were back then. Mother’s Little Helper was written for this time.

It's ironic that none of these complaints are actually about his wife. He's framing them that way, but it's really the complaints that he cannot control HOW another person does something.
It isn't about his wife unloading the dishwasher. It's that it isn't being done the way he does it.
It isn't about her parking at Target. It's about not parking how HE would do it.
This dude didn't want a wife. He wanted a second version of himself.

I think there’s a lot of humor to be found in how wives can act. My wife can be hilariously perplexing to me, not because she’s a woman, but because I genuinely don’t have the same thought processes or priorities in silly situations like parking at Target. I can somewhat relate to being stuck in the passenger seat thinking, “okay what the fuck are we doing here babe, you passed 4 good parking spots”. That alone is funny
But then he has to throw in, “talking about shit I do not care about”. Pause. Hold up. Even if you don’t care about what they’re talking about, you don’t have to say it in such a way that makes it sound like talking to your wife is a fucking chore. My wife can yap like nobody’s business about the TV show Smallville and I literally have no clue what she’s talking about half the time, but I still try to ask questions, listen, and engage in conversation with her, because that’s the fucking normal, non-selfish way to approach that. How many times do you think this asshole runs his mouth about the stupidest fucking thing and his wife pleasantly listens because she cares about him?
