    A “Wife Guy” is an online archetype describing a man—often a celebrity, influencer, or content creator—who builds his public persona or brand around the fact that he loves, adores, or is married to his wife.

        Idk about that. I know a few Wife Guy types IRL and they seem pretty satisfied. Admittedly, their wives are about 10-20 years younger than them…

      Just in case this isn’t a bit, they’re saying they’ve been married for 16 years, not that the wife is 16.

      if it is a bit, then fantastic job. I love it lmao

        It was a bit.

        If you really love it, I’m happy to hear.

        If you’re being sarcastic, then great. You’re making my day.

          No I genuinely love it. I just also know there’s a lot of people around Lemmy and such that English isn’t their first language and might actually have misunderstood it. So I wanted to make sure I covered both.
