El Tigre/Larry, your observations are very correct. That's the culture here in the US and I live in Dallas, Texas USA. Actually allot of Americans joke about it too. Threw the years this type of culture has prevailed in the US as more women became independent, wanted rights, and wanted to be treated as an equal so on. A married couple say back in the 1960 are before this type of behavior was non existence.It has evolved over the years here in the US. I can look at my parents and see this too.My father change slowly over the years. He is now 85.He has fought in hand to hand combat in War War 2 in Japan ect. He was raised what they called "old style" mean when he was a kid if he acted up he would get beaten with a "switch". So basically what I am trying to stay he was a tuff guy where the man ran the house. As I grew up from 1970-1980s at home I can look back and slowly seam him change in how he treated my mother.By the time my parents got into their 60s my mother "Runs" the house. In newer marriages the women are in charge in general. I don't know if this is good or dad. This maybe a contributing reason why USA has the highest divorce rate in the world. Just my 2 cents.
