Weird Situation Kinda

[Subvet642]

What I would be concerned about is setting the dangerous precedent that your Liberty is subject to the approval of your SO, or anyone else for that matter. There seems to be a pervasive notion in female culture that men are like children, to be controlled or managed; for their own good, of course. How many times have we seen television commercials that portray the "father" as some sort of idiot or heard a woman refer to her husband as one of her "children"? My wife tells me about other women she knows who have told her "You have to make him stop smoking!" or "Why do you let him smoke?". She says that she could never respect me if I was the type to just roll over and let her walk on me.
