I suppose if your husband has a problem with it, then you have to address it. If BOOM doesn't mind, then you shouldn't worry about it. Every relationship has different areas of agreement and compromise.

I wouldn't want Jeff to buy the groceries and plan and cook our family meals. In fact, I'd probably get mad at him if he tried to "take over" my domain (the kitchen). I don't want him telling me what we're going to have for dinner, either. I plan all that out carefully, and do my best to appease everyone. That doesn't mean I'm a feminist...does it? Since I don't ask his permission to cook veal for Wednesday dinner?
We usually discuss it and decide together how we are going to vote, and we have not always voted for the same person.
While I was gone visiting my parents BOOM stated that when I came back he was going to have MY kitchen all rearranged. But you know what? He didn't dare. Everything was pretty much they way I left it. lol He knows where my territory begins. He gets a little corner of the kitchen that is his domain which is the coffee corner, that's his--the rest is mine. lol

I know it is a true minority of couples, but it does scare me to hear of wives who "vote the way their husbands tell them too".

I can imagine what hidden camera's in their homes would reveal. Do men who are such "Lords of their home" treat their wives like serfs? Then demand all form of kinky sex at night? Do they demand to be called "Sir"? -Even in the privacy of their home? Do some of these women need an "Equalizer"? -Of the 80's TV show.

Stop the rebellion before it's too late! None of us could get him to grow geri curls, you'll only be frustrating yourself. Let BOOMM be BOOMM.
I have never wanted to restyle BOOM's hair. I love his hair! Thuis the biggest disagreement in our marriage came when he shaved his head! ooooops I didn't just say that did I?

If you want to be holy and separate from the world, then answer me this, why are you on the internet?

I don't tell my wife how to vote that is her choice to make.

Because I am ridiculously whatever I need to be at the moment. And right now, I need to be helping all you Englishers understand the importance of holiness. Besides, it's not my computer or electricity. I use ILG's. It's the same thing as riding in a car but not owning one. You just don't understand holiness. Stick around with me, sister. I will help you out.

My Grandfather would love it if he could control my Grandma's voting! Know how she decides who to vote for president...by who is the best looking! I'm not joking...she does not enjoy politics and she does enjoy making my Grandfather mad.

You can't be too holy wearing a bonnet trying to draw attention to yourself with that unnecessary adornment.
