Imagine walking in on your neighbor repeatedly spraying their spouse in the face with a water hose. In real life, this would warrant some concern. On TikTok, though, it’s a part of the latest relationship test. Women online are listing a series of errands and romantic gestures and having their male partners guess which category of behavior they fall into: “princess treatment” or the bare minimum. If they get it wrong, they’re immediately hosed in the face.

The trend, by and large, is all in good fun. Some couples seem to be in agreement on what are reasonable expectations in a relationship — and what demands are diva-level. According to some women, however, any favor a man can provide — no matter how arbitrary or unnecessary — should be considered the “bare minimum.” In one TikTok, influencer Emma Moriarty expects her husband to give her the first bite of his food at a restaurant, pay for her parking tickets, and fill up her gas tank. “It’s from the same bank account!” her partner rebuts to the last scenario after getting splashed.

These royal-inspired standards have been a hot topic over the past month thanks to influencer Courtney Palmer (@courtney_joelle). The self-proclaimed “housewife princess” shared a video explaining the “princess treatment” she receives from her husband when they go to restaurants. “If I am at a restaurant with my husband, I don’t speak to the hostess,” she says matter-of-factly. “I do not open any doors, and I do not order my own food.” The video sparked immediate concern from users (“me when I’m a prisoner,” replied a commenter) and several parodies. Still, “princess treatment” has proven to be somewhat of an irresistible concept online, as evidenced by the viral water hose game. The clips seem to be partly in jest, while still suggesting “princess treatment” should be the norm.
