    Speaking as a wife and mother, it’s likely the only time in her adult life that somebody focused on her wants and needs instead of expecting her to cater to theirs.

      Following that thought through fully: and her wants for those two days happened to be dick from a homeless man.

        Sure bro, but when a dude does it you’re like “He is my role model!”

          Yes - my point is I do most (almost all) of the cooking and cleaning because I love my partner. In fact I just washed her underwear by hand in the sink. Her needs are meticulously attended to, it’s not the default in heterosexual relationships that a woman be emotionally neglected.
