However, on the other side, linewives are clapping back at the so-called “bucket rabbitnies”, threatening them” who dare to pursue their men.
While it’s no WWE SmackDown, some harsh words are being exchanged in some not-so-friendly fire.
“We linewives, a different breed, are the ones who help to keep the bucket bunnies from getting swept away by hurricane season. The rabbit season is coming soon.” one linewife asked in a TikTok with over 14,000 views.
In the comments section of the post, fellow linewives and allies were in support of her remarks, while others didn’t know why she would go after the other women.
“Although I sympathize with you, isn’t it the man who remains faithful that’s good?” one person said.
“Oder, you can find a man who won’t cheat.” another agreed.
The creator also took to the post’s comment section to note that she doesn’t have to worry about her own husband partaking in the behaviour.
Elsewhere, another TikToker shared that she is a “Pipeline wife” and referenced the term “row h***”, a term that describes a woman who works in the pipeline industry and indulges in sexual activity to get further in their career, Urban Dictionary states.
“We dealt with Row H–s before tik tok. As linemen wives prepare to face the Florida bucket bunnies …”, I am there for them.
