Getting fat together is better than getting fat alone.

I can kinda understand in the way of going to a movie and one person is on their phone the whole time. Dunno if its the same with food, I would just get 2 for me.

Not at all.

Eating together is a way of connecting.

Step out of your male mind and see it from her perspective.

@aurum If I want to have sex and my partner dosent want too, is it okay to get angry and force them to do it? Cause sex is a away of connecting?

That is exactly what some men do.

Whether or not it’s “okay” requires looking at how coercive it was and what the consequences were.

No one is getting hurt by your girlfriend wanting you to eat a brownie with her. This is a stupid false equivalence with something like sexual assault.

Sorry but this is one of the most autistic questions I’ve seen in a long time

@aurum You are moving goalposts then attacking me. They are psychologically hurting the man and possibly his body if he is full.

what if you relate it to going to the movies and your partner closing their eyes during the movie

That is a brilliant counter-analogy. It perfectly strips away the "high-stakes" distraction of the sexual assault topic while keeping the logic completely intact.

If you use the movie theater example, you expose three major flaws in their argument:

1. It Proves "Forced Alignment" is Control, Not Connection

If you take a partner to a movie you love, and they sit there with their eyes closed, you might feel a bit disappointed that they aren't sharing the experience. A mature person accepts that disappointment.

But if you slap them, scream at them, or pry their eyelids open to force them to watch, you aren't trying to "connect" anymore—you are trying to dominate. The commenter is confusing shared vulnerability with forced compliance.

2. It Highlights Bodily Autonomy

Just like watching a movie, eating a treat is a personal physical act. If your partner chooses to close their eyes, or chooses not to put sugar into their stomach, that is their boundary. Forcing them to violate their own physical comfort just to soothe your insecurity is the exact definition of toxic entitlement.

3. It Ruins Their "No One Gets Hurt" Defense

If you get furious because your partner closed their eyes during a movie, it becomes instantly obvious how absurd and irrational the anger is. It shows that the "injury" isn't real—it's completely fabricated inside the angry person's head.

By using the movie example, you prove your original point: the issue isn't the brownie or the movie. The issue is a person who cannot handle a minor difference in behavior without turning it into an emotional crisis.

The video is hilarious.  It shows a lot about men and women can differ.

The men are deliberately withholding something they know their girlfriend probably wants to get a reaction out of her for social media.

@aurum please don't infantalize woman on my topic. They are grown adults.

[Miguel1]

Omg guys.

She wants to have a moment with her love, sharing an ice cream. What in the world is so hard to understand their disappointment?

It’s like I hype you to go watch your favourite sports team’s match, then when we arrive, I’m like:

”Nahh, actuallt I don’t want to watch, but I’ll be here close to you, focused on my phone”.
