My parents divorce. My mom was originally married to a cop who was pretty jacked, rode a harley etc. Got divorced and married my beta dad, had some kids and planned out a divorce over a few years and did it a few weeks before my brother would have been in 1st grade so she could work a full time job. My dad was everything women say that they want, $50 an hour government job with nice benefits, very intelligent, slightly above average in looks, adventerous/outdoorsy, and he was completely spineless to her(not others though). If someone was being unethical in my parents divorce it was surely my mom she grew up very spoiled from an inheritance while being very good looking. But from my pov it was all my dads fault, it isn't a womans job to teach men to be men and I never wanted t end up like my dad. From age 10 on wards(24 now) I have always resented my dad for not being a man and I made sure I wouldn't be like him. For a decade after my parents divorced my dads house still had many empty rooms, I never thought anything of this because Its a big house for 1 person to live in. My dad never dated and I never told my dad that my mom was going to nightclubs every weekend. Anyway I had to tell my dad that my mom was engaged one day and not more than a week later all of those empty rooms had been filled so I realized holy shit did you seriously think you 2 were going to get back together just because she wasn't hostile with you? For a decade he was single waiting for her for no reason, he bought into all this romcom disney true love bullshit. Absolutely pathetic behavior

I thought of myself as a feminist for a long time during my teens because my mom tried to brainwash me and it did seem like women were being treated pretty poorly in many situations.

Which is why TRP seems appealing to me, it attempts to give women what they truly want on a base level while still maintaining control over the situation
