Red flags for sure, but whenever I see stuff like this, I do wish that sex and gender could just not exist for a while. Like, wouldn’t it be cool if this dude and his new buddy could just play some gosh darn pickle ball without the subtext that he has to be cheating on his wife?
Yeah, why the fuck is there a sexual subtext just because a man wants a woman to play with his pickle and balls?
I know this is meant to be humour, but honestly, is there a reason this has to be sexual? I’d like to think platonic relationships do exist.
If he hadn’t called his wife fat from childbirth and his partner “trim” it’d be nonsexual, but the framing is deliberately sexual so I don’t know what you want.
There’s greater room for platonic friendships in relationships with lots of trust.
Edit: I’m in a poly relationship which, similarly, only works with lots of trust. But a side effect of that trust is that platonic friendships with sexually attractive people are, seriously, NBD.
Jealousy is the love killer.
Bonus:
Committing to the bit. Amazing dedication. Hard to find nowadays.
Still with the responses any doubts are lifted that it’s a troll.
It is joke. The joke is people dumb.
I dropped it in c/humor because the bit the guy is doing made me laugh, but either it didn’t land with everyone or the bit is too subtle, because it’s getting lots of downvotes. Oh well.
The additional images add a lot of context that probably isn’t seen by people who didn’t click into the post.
Yeah it’s fairly common on the internet for someone to take everything at face value.
Not exactly that rare irl either, for that matter. People even occasionally fall for Onion articles.
Where does the humour come in?
The trolling, supposedly.
Ask the wife to drive you. She can sleep in the car.
