Oh no, you didn't offend me, Gaia! But I can't get all pissy about threads generalizing women in the larger forum, without getting similarly pissy about the Ladies Lounge generalizing men's behavior, right?
And hon, if I were you, I WOULD smack the shit out of your husband... at least, given what you've told us. I don't believe in violence in a marriage, of course. But if he's going to act like a child, then I suppose he's begging to be treated as a child... so something needs to reign him in. Sounds like the only thing that might work with him is something extreme... you going on strike, for example. Or, less passive-agressively, both of you going to marital counseling... have you guys tried that?
