I've never seen it anywhere else.

I've never seen so many "guys" proudly pretending that they are
pussy whipped. I'm wondering if this might be a case of double
reverse psychology: the "guy" pretends that he's pussy whipped in
the hope that people will think that he wouldn't be "pretending"
if it were so. But in actually it is indeed so.

I won't tolerate a SWMBO, I suppose thats why I'm single.
I really can't tolerate SWMBC, that one lasts about five
minutes.

TDD

SWMBC?
Google was clueless, as am I.

She Who Must Be Crazy. I was talking to my friends daughter when she
was 23, I've known her since she was a little girl. I was explaining
to her that women have a switch inside their heads that flips between
the ages of 30-35, it's called "The Crazy Switch" and 20 years later
it comes loose again and the woman either turns into Hillary Clinton
or Mother Teresa, you never know where it will land. Her response was,
"I think I've seen that in my mother....OH NO, I've only got seven
years left!"

TDD

Crazy?! Go through her Menopause. She looks at you like you have three
heads,

[and will cut them all off]

says "I didn't say that"!!! "Why is it so hot?"


I don't think male Menopause is that bad.

Good point. Men will tolerate a mentally-challengend woman (think
Edith Bunker), but seldom a crazy one. Or one that oscillates (think
un-medicated manic-depressive).

Unless they have really big tits.


Snort. Most men will tolerate damn near anything, especially after
they get too old and/or fat to find someone else. Remember, men get
cranky as they get older as well.

No they don't! FY and the horse you rode in on aemeijers!!

Does the military phrase "A good soldier picks which hill he wants to die
on" make any sense to you? Some time, it is advisable to go along with a
bad plan rather than face the difficulties, obstacles, and penalties of
noncompliance.

You say that like it's a bad thing...

It sucks to be you.

I used to have a girlfriend named Claudia. Claudia knew how to do "things",
and she would do them at the drop of a hat and in any place on the planet,
public, or private, many times totally and pleasantly surprising me, ala the
Police Chief's speech in the comedy Police Academy. (the girl hiding in the
lectern)

I do believe that woman could have convinced me to commit murder. I
wouldn't say I was pussy whipped, just lead around a lot. When a woman has
ahold of a man's dick, the rest of him just naturally follows. It isn't
until later that we have time or cause to reason.

When it is appropriate I use "SWMBO'd". I think you will find it is
common practice on many user groups. Generally, at this establishment, it
is probably 6 of this and half a dozen of the other. However, there are
times when I feel that it is circumspect to obey SWMBO'd!

Snicker, and us SWMBO's appreciate it Dear!

Sadly, it works in reverse and i have to go to the hardware store in a few
mins for HWMBO. Thats ok, it's his birthday tomorrow and I wanna get him
a gift certificate for the local HW place so he can gleefully get us both
some new toys. (There's this add on dremmel tool part I really want!)

And Daddy, don't forget my eight pack of Duracell D batteries at the HW
store.............. Momma's Little Friend is getting a little
weak.................

As John Hiatt once noted : I'm just so easily lead, when the Little
Head does the thinkin'.

What I want is the small wire rotator for hard to reach small angles when
refinishing furniture.

I read it as a not-so-subtle insult to the women, actually. Yeah, a lot
of married guys are pw'd, but I don't see "SWMBO" as a either a
compliment to the wives, or an acknowledgment by the men that they're
compliant. More like sarcasm.

There's the ancient joke about the guy who is all exited telling someone
how he only get "it" once a year. The friend asks why he is so proud and
excited to share this. Guy says "Tonight's the night!".

I see it as a humorous by-line but not an insult (or rarely used in such a
manner). If my husband was a newsgroup sort of fellow a recent post of his
might have been: "SWMBO says the solid cherry wood table we are refinishing
needs a cherry color stain. What brand would you recommend?'

There's no insult there, just a joking query on my desires, his willingness
to match them, and a request for a brand name that you've found decent in
cherry wood stains.

BTW, if curious it has now been treated with tung oil and is waiting a solid
beeswax coating after the oil has a chance to soak in completely. Buffing
the wax in is quite a chore, but it's a small table, the sort you'd put in a
hall foyer for gloves and such. Lovely little piece which we have no use
for but going to make a great gift after we have fun restoring it.

I wonder if it has something to do with a man's age? I just can't
imagine a married male between the ages of 20 and 35 referring to his
wife as She Who Must Be Obeyed; particularly if he is a stud (like me
:-)

Hmmm, my DH looks at any home improvement project and says, "Ewww,
looks like work" and backs away. I call him, "He Who Must Be Ignored",
or HWMBI (hoo-imbi) when I'm deciding what needs to be done to the
house. He neither pays for it nor does any of the work. Why should I
care what he thinks? Answer: I don't

That's pretty much how it is here too.

FWIW the following Wikipedia explains the roots of this acronym:
