   Ok this made me lol. A thing that surprised me about entering construction is how ~manners~ blue collar guys can be.

     @Gelatinousrube Ha! Amusing but I feel like what she's talking about is actually some sort of emerging trend these days. Probably not for the mega SJWs but for my peer group who are all generally (classic) liberals and went to very posh schools. They're marrying traditionally-ish minded guys who are career military, small business owners, or are in the trades. Definitely not as much Wall Street as I would've expected.
     
     They did all begin to cohabitate with these guys prior to marriage though which is still a concept that makes my family look for the nearest fainting couch.

     @GalacticTurtle I feel these things run in cycles! I remember in the 90s when a book called "The Rules" came out that was a lot like Female Dating Strategy. People were losing their shit over it being regressive but if women need a technique for holding the men they're dating accountable, it's better than going out in the world unarmed.
     
     The dating talk with my mother went like this:
     
     My mother: Why is your period late, I'm taking you for a pregnancy test
     Me: I think I'm gay? I've only slept with women?
     My mother: You'll grow out of it. Your father thought he was gay too. Just marry a man for money and you'll be fine.
     
     Ok I'm a bad example
