I thought “who wears the pants in the relationship” pretty much means “who has the last word in domestic affairs”, which is independent of employment status.
I had always interpreted it as wearing work pants for a factory job or putting on suit pants for office work.
That’s how I’ve always known it as well. Probably regional?
Yeah, that’s how I think of it too, but I guess in the patriarchal stereotype of heterosexual relationships, the man occupies both the roles of the primary earner and gets the last word, so they may be conflated by others?
Yeah, plus the undertones of wifebeating/manbeating
yeah, me too, except I don’t have a top so I jusy bought my own cage to sleep in

I know there’s a joke abou being a masochist some where here.
