"Somehow the wife turning into a frigid nag is socially acceptable. It's okay for the wife to shut off the sex, ration sex -- "go sleep on the couch" is perfectly normalized. "

I have never in my life heard that that was "socially acceptable." And I've been alive a long time.

You're reacting to the hypothetical you have posited, for some reason, rather than to the facts at hand.

Watters is not divorcing his wife for emotional/sexual/marital abandonment.

She is divorcing him for adultery.

[Pravious]

And neither of you know the facts and neither of you know these people.

Yet so many here are willing to thump their Bibles and make pronouncements. Bah.

Too bad it’s already past six, or I’d watch “The Five” just to give the guy some support. :-P.

"I have never in my life heard that that was "socially acceptable." And I've been alive a long time"

I would suggest you haven't paid super close attention in that case.

"You're reacting to the hypothetical you have posited, for some reason, rather than to the facts at hand."

I was addressing the subject in general, rather than this specific instance directly -- for the "some reason" that I've personally witnessed numerous friends and relatives suffering the experience I described. I don't agree with the MGTOW movement, but I understand where the perspective comes from.
