« on: May 22, 2016, 07:41:18 PM »

Definitely men as the trailing spouse in the UK too.  I think women tend to worry more, so they do more research.    ;D

Men aren't allowed to express their feelings of worry. Patriarchy harms even those it purports to benefit.
I just hope that more people will ignore the fatalism of the argument that we are beyond repair. We are not beyond repair. We are never beyond repair. - AOC

Yes, patriarchy gets a little sticky when you start factoring for race and such.

I think of you as a sensitive old soul.  Someone wise beyond their years.   :)

You hit me with that right as I am feeling a bit decrepit. My shame at the state of my front garden got to the point yesterday (my neighbour should enter the garden show), that I went out and hacked at stuff for an hour or so last evening.

I am sore in strange places today and apparently gardening doesn't affect me the way it does some people; I am not relaxed by it, nor do I feel any sense of accomplishment.

I think I need to do some stretchy yoga type things.

I'm a US husband.  Grew up in FL, but lived all over the US, and now London.

No idea how to say this without it sounding awkward, but I wouldn't mind some good stories and a beer with other American husbands.  I like Brits, but would enjoy talking to someone who understands that 2 hours isn't a long drive ;).
