Being in the trans end of things I have read a shitload of erotic fiction and stuff around the idea of a 'male wife', whatever you want to call it, and if you read the stories, you have to wonder about how such a thing would play out in real life, for much the same reasons others have pointed out. Many of those who fantasize about this think Leave it to Beaver and the old Donna Reed show were real, their idea of a 'male wife' is someone who is this nitwit a la the character Lucille Ball played, being told by the 'real wife' what to do, the mindless twit dusting and baking cookies and whatever. I am all for people finding their dreams and living life as they wish, but what kind of a dominant woman would want a husband wife as described? As Akasha said, to keep such a household going, the woman would need to be accomplished,working hard, and who would want to have a relationship where someone like Akasha would be running a business, or being a well paid engineer or executive or lawyer or whatever, then come home and have to pay the bills and balance the checkbook (or the modern equivalent) cause 'wifey' just is too scatterbrained to do that. Quite honestly, I have heard women on BD/SM boards get pissed off when they read this, and I don't blame them. Maybe because my family has lived the 'conventional' existence for many years, me as the breadwinner working lucrative but intense jobs, and my better half (for sure) taking care of so much, including a very demanding kid, their view of things is insulting to me, because I know and appreciate how much my love does and has done in keeping things going. My answer is if someone has a male wife, they better expect to be the major domo of the household, keeping on top of everything, truly keeping their lives afloat while their better half is out busting her ass. I could just see it, the dominant wife is working 14 hour days, stressed to hell, and the 'husband wife' is pouting because the wife is just too damn tired to do anything but grab a bite to eat, take a shower and go to bed.... Btw, Akasha, it is really cool seeing you on here (I am active on here in fits and starts). I first saw you posting back in the alt newsgroup days on the net many years ago, when I first seriously was getting into this in a lifestyle basis (and what a weird journey it has been for me since then.....the Dead had it right with "what a long, strange trip its been"....), glad to see you are still out there burning up the firmament:)
