An e-mail on the things women can get away with:

K-lo,
Can you imagine the hysterical reaction from feminists if a husband tried to control who his wife had contact with online? Is Mrs. Smith Muñiz her husband’s wife or is she his mother?

A husband responds:

Subject: feminist – schmemenist
Kathryn,
Isn’t there anywhere in America we can get past the silly feminist illusion that men and women are equal in every way as opposed to just equal under the law? I’m a devoted sexist. In my mind that means that women should be treated better and with more care than men. I come from a family of hard men. Professional soldiers all. And I’d say things to a man in a moment that I would never consider uttering to a woman. And at 46 years old, I’m hardly from some bygone era… not yet anyway.
As to the twitter thing, the rules don’t go both ways nor should they. We have a saying in my house: “Happy wife – happy life.” (I made it up, not her.)
