Not in my world. That can go south very quickly. AND it still puts the onus on the girlfriend.

The girlfriend is biting her tongue, and the resentment is beginning.

A request for help, is permission to stop biting tongue, and halt the resentment.

Ok, so you are at least middle-aged, as am I. The rules have changed, my dude.

OP realizes that he and the gf don't have the same standards. He wants to learn how to meet those standards, which is absolutely lovely (well done, OP!). Your suggestion is to put the responsibility on the girlfriend by asking her to continually pointing out things she isn't happy with. Today the counters, tomorrow the penis. There is no good outcome here.

Sadly, yes they have. Now people ask strangers on the internet, rather than having an adult conversation with their beloved.

Which brings me to my belief that our conversation has already run its course, in this matter of opinion.
