You also used "spouse." Every man I know says "wife." I've only heard women say "spouse."

Welcome.

Damn. I need to work on my androgyny.

I'd never thought about that before, but you're right. Of course the nuance behind it is to suggest equality--but really, we can't even use the word husband anymore, without implying subservience? That's not fair, I'm officially reclaiming the word for my own empowerment.

Alternatively, we could just start calling them "the old paycheck-generator."

I prefer the term "kept man" mesself. :rolleyes:

"Grouchface" seems to work well enough for my family . . . .

I like to call mine "baby daddy." That's about all he's good for. :cool:

I call Dazza my husband. I never use any of those other psudonyms.

Well, someone's got to do it, so...

Let's see yer tits, PM. We actually have a thread for that, you know.

Sorry, it's my job. It isn't like I *want* to be crude, but it's sort of expected of me by now.

Pensive Monkey 07-17-2009 08:34 PM

I'm breastfeeding. I don't think you want to see them right now!!

Clodfobble 07-17-2009 10:55 PM

I assure you, they do. You wouldn't even be the first, in fact.
