Men are supposed to wear the pants. You're just making excuses why you won't assert yourself in social situations because you're afraid of something and that something sounds like your wife.

A man's role is literally to call bullshit on women's hysterical and irrational bullshit as driven by their greater propensity for trait neuroticism due to biological dimorphism and monthly hormone cycles.

In a small but immense agregate way, "keeping your quiet" is what's behind most of the problems we see as a result of women dominating social spaces with all their Marxist bullshit.

You might have shit male friends who won't back you when challenged in these situations as well, which makes it all the worse.

The honest term is cucked.
