Reminds me of a joke:
Q: How many gender feminists does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: THAT'S NOT FUNNY!!!

Well, the list also has a pretty severe gender bias. Christine, Tan,
Ann, and who else? In a more balanced group some woman would have
quickly complained about hubby and then the word "spouse" would have
appeared instead of "wife".

I don't think that fiscal responsibility is a trait that is exclusive to one
gender or the other. On the other hand, I don'tI think that a bit of good
natured banter about the wife who controls the purse strings is sexism. Men and
women do have some innate differences in temperament and priorities. At one
time, those differences were at least taken for granted if not applauded.
Nowadays, society works far too hard to establish institutional sameness.
Sameness is boring; differentiation is a good thing.

Thanks, Christine, for puncturing some of the latent sexism in this thread.
In our household, I am the stingier of us, and it often takes a nudge from my
wife to overcome my deeply ingrained resistance to spending money.
Cheers,

Yes, it's a dilemma. Especially when you have a joint

Mind over matter or matter over mind? ;-) Or even

To mind or not to mind? That is the matter :-).
