No. Since you asked, I think the communication issues are most likely caused by both people involved, not just the man. I think the wife (in the OP) was expressing her own frustration when she suggested divorce, then felt like she had to follow through with it when OOP didn't react the way she wanted/expected him to. It sounds like neither person in that relationship is communicating effectively.

A lot of men genuinely have trouble communicating with all women (beyond superficial day-to-day interactions). I don't think that's misogynistic, I think it's a symptom of a bigger problem in society. Boys aren't taught how to interact with women, and when they fall back to what they were taught about interacting with other men they quickly get themselves in trouble.

That has some truth for career/professional skills, but I don't think there's anything wrong with having a lot of hobbies. Most people won't achieve "true greatness" (whatever that means) in their hobbies whether they have one or hundreds, so why not just focus on doing what you enjoy?

I think they're expressing frustration about not being able to communicate with women, and I think it's easy to misinterpret that frustration as aggression or misogyny.

It's not misogynistic to admit you have trouble communicating with women.

As long as they keep their standard of living the same as before they retired, a lot of them can ignore prices. Doesn't mean they're buying a new car every month...

If you can't afford a yacht on $250k/year (after tax) then you need help budgeting, or it's just not a priority. You might not be able to afford multiple houses AND a yacht, but a normal house and a yacht should be possible. Or your could replace the yacht with a couple lambos...

What if he just wants to play scrabble, though?

Only one party is promoting change, and it's not the kind of change I want to see.

And look at how many politicians and businesses have gone back on their promises in the past decade.

I don't think qualified immunity affects civil suits like wrongful death. AFAIK it only covers criminal charges like murder.

Just knowing how to use Google/ddg/etc to search for a solution to your problem makes you better at troubleshooting than most people. Spending 30 seconds to find a relevant link can make you seem like a genius to a lot of people.
