“Oh my god! My daughter’s only in second grade. Why would she be reading this shit? I took my daughter to the bookstore to read today, and she was hiding in a corner, totally absorbed in a book. I looked and saw it was a romance manga! I was terrified. I have no idea what to do! I’m so worried she’s gonna date young, but I don’t know how to talk to her about this.”
Comments say, “When she grows up, you’ll learn to be happy that she’s only reading romances :P”
“Yup, I still read sweet little love stories in elementary school, but I started in porn in middle school, and yaoi porn by highschool. Still didn’t stop me from resisting marriage to the point that I want to die now that I’m working.”
“There’s already people in the comment section recommending yaoi romances to introduce her daughter to hahahahaha.”
“I find that there really are people who fantasise about professional housewives getting divorced decades into their marriage with absolutely nothing by their boss, not a cent to their name, like some kind of power fantasy. [“Professional housewife” here referring to women to approach marriage with the mindset of doing a job.] But these people don’t even have a halfway decent partner of their own. It’s like the bottom of the class fantasising about how nerds grow up to be sad basement-dwelling virgins. I mean, I’m not saying it doesn’t happen, but it’s pretty rare in this day and age.
Professional housewiving is a very serious job, and it works just like any other job. The goal is to get your hands on money and resources, and maintaining the stability of your marriage and doing upkeep on your relationship is just a means to the end. It’s just like how you don’t go to work every day because you love working, but because you get a pay check every month. A normal professional housewife is just like a normal salaryman. What they’re thinking about is how to get money and resources into their own pockets, or into the hands of someone they can control.
Of course, this sort of thing doesn’t see much discussion on internet forums. Just to maintain their own interests, professional housewives won’t tell any of this to their own children (which is why the descendants of professional housewives often can’t figure out how to become professional housewives themselves). And they certainly won’t tell it to another housewife. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t places you can learn these tricks. Actually, there’s a type of people in society who specialise in consulting with and helping these housewives, and those people are insurance salesman. If you don’t understand why, you can read my previous post here. [Basically, buying insurance and making the beneficiary your children is the most legally sound way to pass your money to them without having to pay a ton of taxes or getting it challenged in court.]
These days, even if you’re barely middle-class, I’m sure you know people who’ve quit their jobs to sell insurance (though you might have blocked those people). And “how to transfer your assets to your children” is the biggest draw of buying insurance. Any insurance agent near a housewife would explain marital law, judge arbitration, the inseparability of insurance, marital assets and pre-marital assets and so on and so forth to housewives. So long as a professional housewife is literate, even if she literally fell ass-backwards into marriage with a rich man by sheer accident, these people around her will teach her the whole course in a very short amount of time. Of course, it won’t be for free. The tuition is probably a small fortune. But so what? It’s not her money anyways. Even if 20% of the money she launders through them become “tuition”, that’s still 80% that’s going into her control. If she didn’t pay tuition, she can’t control a single cent. Guess what professional housewives are going to choose?
And a lot of successful insurance salesman work with several different housewives, and have very deep and long-term cooperation with them in getting money out of their husband, so they’re pretty familiar with all the other tricks too. I’ll write a few pretty briefly:
[OP links to a couple other articles of his about how to launder money by putting your children into international schools which have a lot of excursions and lying about what those excursions cost, or signing them up for extracurricular classes for much the same purposes.]
And if you’re a new housewife, do you not think the eager insurance agents wouldn’t be chomping at the bit to teach you?
If you want to learn, there’s endless material in the world.
So how much money can these housewives hide? Can’t say. It’s up to the individual. But I can say that it’s at least more than she could’ve made in her lifetime working a 996 job [9AM to 9PM, 6 days a week], even if she was employed at a bit tech company. Not to mention, her working conditions are a hell of a lot comfier.
Of course, to outsiders, or even to their own parents and children, professional housewives would never admit to how much money they have. Especially if they have a brother. You know why. As for their “friends”, sorry, professional housewives don’t have friends. Not to mention, who would tell anyone, “I’ve got a quick and easy way to make tons of money?” That’s just increasing the competition.
Poor people show off their riches to satisfy their vanity, to get the respect and awe they don’t often get in life. And rich people like to pretend to be poor, to make more money, or at least to hold onto their current money.
One is instinct. The other is smart.”
Comments say, “Just the fact that they can maintain a marriage for over a decade means that their boss is happy with their performance. They’re hitting all their KPIs. And it means these professional housewives aren’t naive idiots.”
“?? How the hell is any of this middle class? This is the life of the elite. It has nothing to do with OP or 95% of your fans.”
“Dude, open your eyes, lol, these aren’t rich people. They’re mostly middle class, making maybe a million a year. None of these silly tricks work on actual rich people. You won’t get much money out of them. And if the man’s only making a million a year, how much can his wife really save?”
A blogger posts screenshots of a listing by a landlord looking for a tenant warning, “Don’t rent from this guy! I just saw this on a renting group chat this morning, and if I’m not mistaken, he totally means *that*, right? If so, for the love of god, don’t rent from him! Especially if you’re a girl! This sentence doesn’t mean anything else, right? I haven’t censored our his contact info, so people can watch out for this guy.
This post is gone now, but I hope everyone can protect themselves and never give these people a chance.”
The listing reads, “3-bedroom apartment sitting north to south, renting guest bedroom facing south, fully furnished, 13 square metres, plenty of light, no rent if you sleep with me twice a month.
Subway station 300 metres away, cinema 50 metres away, right next to KFC, McDonalds, and a commercial street. Super convenient for shopping.

You can move in any time.
Rent: One month’s rent as deposit, and you have to pay the first three months’ rent in one go, 2400 RMB in rent a month, we’ll split the water, electricity, and gas bill. No other fees. Open to a little bit of haggling. I’ll waive the rent if you sleep with me twice a month.
Contact me on WeChat at [OP actually censored this information].”
Comments say, “But it’s such a fantastic offer T_T”
“I’m not surprised by these conditions, I’m surprised by some people’s reactions in the comment section. I guess not everybody has a sense of morality after all.”
“I mean, he named his terms up front, it’s just up to you whether you’ll take it or not. A lot of people don’t have money, man.”
A tiktok video of a woman committing suicide by jumping off a bridge, while her 1.5 year old daughter is crying and calling out “mama” right under the bridge railing. Apparently, she survives, but uh. Look, it’s pretty nightmare fuel material. Do you guys actually want to see it? Because I feel like I’m doing people’s mental health a favour by not showing it.
Comments say, “Everyone’s feeling bad for the baby, but who’s gonna feel bad for the mom? She’s her parents’ baby too.”
“She lost her life and everyone’s just accusing her of being irresponsible. No one cares what drove her to that point.”
“Right? Everyone’s blaming her for committing suicide right in front of her kid, but if she doesn’t even want to live anymore, how is she gonna feel responsible? If she’s completely done living, I mean. You have to love yourself first before you can love someone else, and your baby is still just someone else.”
“Can I bring my family over to my friend’s house for Chinese New Year? I want my parents and kid to visit me for Chinese New Year from my hometown, but I’m splitting rent with roommates in Shanghai, and there’s no room for them. I’ve got a friend who isn’t gonna be in Shanghai for the New Years, so I wanted to borrow his place for a week (he’s also renting). I think there’s no problem, but my friend’s girlfriend minds it a lot. What can I do?”
Comments say, “Jesus have a sense of boundaries.”
“What does it matter if you think there’s no problem or not? It’s not like he’s coming over to live in your house.”
“If your friend’s girlfriend minds, it means your friend minds. He just doesn’t want to say it outright. Be a little more self-conscious, okay?”
“The most popular Asian influencers overseas is Hong Kong Doll and Naimi. That’s what westerners sincerely find attractive in Asian women.”
The blogger attaches a post comparing Asian women on CNN and Asian women on CCTV, but the picture quality is terrible.
Comments say, “Tifa’s popularity says it all.”
“Who the fuck cares what they like?”
“High cheekbones, long square face, wide mouth, squinty eyes.”
“There was a hilarious Hupu post a while back [basically Chinese 4chan?]
There was a bro, who read too much cuck posts or something, and started doubting his wife more and more. They were each other’s first love, high school sweethearts to marriage.
One day, he got a bug up his ass, and decided to get a paternity test for his son. Obviously, the kid was his, and he was happy. But the most retarded part is, after a while, he mentioned this to his wife, with that sort of, “I knew you wouldn’t let me down” tone.
His wife was absolutely furious. Insisted on a divorce. No room for negotiations.
The bro flipped out, and started asking around on Hupu again about what to do.
And all the comments are making fun of him like, “Lol we were just memeing. Who believes anything 4chan says.”
Comments say, ”You got a link? I need a good laugh.”
“I don’t get men. If you really have doubts, just to get a test in secret. Why did he have to tell his wife? It’s like he slapped her in the face and expected her to be happy about it or something.”
“Everyone’s just in it for the lulz these days. If you’re really going there looking for advice, everyone’s just gonna come up with ways for you to fuck up your life.”
I don't want to see anything too heartbreaking, but if you post it I'll just skip it.
The women on the right have so much make up they look like they are wearing masks. Do chinese tv host go on air like that regularly?
