And these men run the world, and big companies. But when it comes to home “stuff” they become blur. 🤣🤣 Always wonder.

“Men react to urgency, not importance,” maybe. But isn’t there a point where something being genuinely important should create a sense of urgency?
If it’s about your wife and child, why do you need an immediate consequence before you feel the need to understand the situation or act? There’s already something at stake: your wife’s confidence in you as a partner, and her trust in you as a reliable parent.
That’s why I’m not sure this is really about urgency. It sounds more like reacting to consequences. They don’t act when something is important because there’s no immediate consequence for not acting. Then, once they’re held accountable and something they value is at risk, suddenly it becomes urgent.
And honestly, that feels less like “men react to urgency” and more like knowing they can get away with not taking responsibility until their wife reaches breaking point.

I would say that it could be: 1. Practice makes perfect so if you’re exposed to the same situation more, you’re more likely to be better at dealing with it. 2. There more often than not, 100 different ways to get something done. In your POV, your method might be better, but it does not mean that it is the only way. 3. Some men really will weaponize incompetence. But they are usually either lazy or manipulative. If your husband is neither of those things, please refer to point of 1 and 2.

they expect we (women) knows everything.. literally everything.. which actually we dont. We dont know, we search, we read, we learn, we ask, we observe etc. Why they cant be like that? I always wonder 😂😌

But I also admit sometimes Im struggle with this myself — we can't always get our way. There needs to be some flexibility involved. As long as it get done, we shouldn't be so hard on ourselves and others. I admit then when we are already stressed and tired, you may not always have the capacity for that mental flexibility
