The Women On 'Love Is Blind' Are Doing Literally *All* The Work

"But Love is Blind Season 10? Well, this is the season that really hammers home just how much work women put into a relationship - even one separated by a hypnotic glowing wall. Look, the season just started, so of course we can't jump too far ahead. But in the six episodes that have dropped, there's a giant theme of smart, capable, bad*ss Ohio women who know their worth still having to plod the men along and be the person who knows how to actually handle a relationship.
