HenpeckedHusband
#63031
This troper loves his parents, but his father is as henpecked as can be. This troper is just waiting for the right argument to call him pussy-whipped, but it hasn't come up yet.
#63032
This troper has a bumper sticker on his car that reads, "I wear the pants. She wears the strap-on."
#63033
Are you fucking proud about that?!
#63034
Are you?
#63035
If I had a bumper sticker that hilarious, I'd totally be proud of it.
#63036
So would I. And no, I'm not missing the point; My fiance and I are just that fucking kinky.
#63037
This married male troper tries his damnedest to avoid falling victim to this trope but has become convinced that there's not a man alive who can avoid it if he's married for long enough. When it comes to marriage, DontTryThisAtHome.

Probably TruthInTelevsion. Unless he's a blatant HeManWomanHater with an extra helping of StayInTheKitchen, he's going to be henpecked sooner or later.
#63039
This troper has kind of a variant on it, in that he's not married in real life but incorporates this trope into a lot of his fanfiction, mostly because he thinks it's funny. He also likes to tease male friends of his about somethig being "another one of those 'Yes Dear' moments" when their girlfriends are involved.

This Troper isn't married yet, but has become Perceptive enough that he recognizes this will likely be his fate in the future. His fiancee, unfortunatly, is even more so than him, such that the 'Yes Dear' has become a reflexive response.
#63041
This troper has been married for 16 years and has three daughters. He has come to realize and accept that women rule this country. It's allright, actually.

Not to me , it isn't. toi me, Theis trope is a bit of a Standard. Just my opinion.
#63043
It's no so much a matter of henpecking, but of happiness. As it has been said, "If Momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy." I can be grumpy and she can hide behind a book. If she's pissed (which in the British sense is a good thing), I'd better pay attention or I'll pay for it (or miss out, as the case may be). Thus, she often gets her way because that's what'll make her happy, which allows me to be bappy

This troper's grandfather. He used to be married to a woman, who was a DereDere. Then she had a nasty stroke/aneurysm combo...and ItGotWorse. She transformed from DereDere to TsunTsun, and she constantly screams at him. He either does what he can to make her happy (but it's never enough), or leaves the house to get away from her.
#63045
This troper is a brazen, opinionated, whiny, free spirited woman with an Amazonian build. Her husband is a plain-looking and overweight compliant guy with a serving attitude. Yet this couple ''averts'' this trope. She is his submissive love muffin and proud of it, viewing him as the wisest and kindest husband anyone can have, whereas he is her protector and unofficial (behavioral!) therapist.
#63046
Of note is that much of this comes from this troper doing her damndest to avoid being like her mother who henpecked her father away. This troper hated the relationship her parents had and knew she could never have anything like that for herself.
#63047
My mom's boyfriend. When she's having a ''mood,'' he suddenly loses the ability to do anything right. His usual response is to calmly drop what he's doing (or trying to do) without another word, pick up his fishing pole, walk out the door, and come back in a few hours when she's better.
#63048
This tropette's boyfriend can kind of be like this, to me (minus the husband bit). Except, apperently, he likes being dominated and bossed around and borderline submissive.
#63049
A positive example between my brother and his soon-to-be wife. My brother is a former drug addict and alcoholic. Even ''he'' admits that her nagging is what keeping him from relapse. It's part of why he loves her so much.
#63050
Unfortunately subverted with my parents. My mom henpecks my dad not because she wants to, but because he is sort of a JerkAss who won't do what he's supposed to, and actually wants to be a submissive wife. (Her parents had the old-fashioned dominant husband and StayInTheKitchen wife relationship.)
