Real-life drama at the beach ... Rammy's in trouble again ... apparently the wife doesn't like me taking pictures of other women

24,862 1,948 July 22, 2009 at 10:01 AM in Cameras
Amongst the ~200 photos I took last week at the beach, I snapped 3-4 pictures of some hotties that were walking up and down the beach. The wife took great offense to this and I thought it was playful at first but (as women are apt to do) an argument ensued which turned into her giving me the cold, silent treatment for the next 24 hours. She indicated I was "to take pictures of only her & the kids".

Disrespectful? Immature? In hindsight a little, but in her words "I'm married, I'm not dead". I wasn't peeping through a peephole at some ESPN hottie, I was taking a picture of someone strolling a few yards in front of me proudly displaying the goods that God gave her. Just how insecure can she be?

Is this a potential for a double standard? The wife had a massage at a day spa from a "young surfer dude" who was checking her out. Do I come out with the directive "no man can touch you except for me at any time". To take it to another level, shouldn't I be able to get lap dances (I don't btw) without feeling guilty. I agree that's extreme, but give me a break.

I thought things had cooled down the next day or two (makeup OTs) but then out of the blue the wife went through and deleted the pictures on my camera - which simply pissed me off. The following is all that's left. It was intended to be a humorous presentation to the lounge: (a) picture of hotties, (b) picture of wife holding up hand in front of camera, (c) picture of ocean as wife punched hubby in stomach.

So looking is OK?
I think so. I've always been under the impression that all guys occasionally look. I mean it's only natural, right? Heck, I've been guilty of looking at women because they're attractive. I've had this discussion a million times with DH, there are allot of beautiful women out there, just because your married doesn't mean you can't recognize beauty when you see it. I totally understand where your wife is coming from though! She's probably wondering all sorts of things, like why did he take the pictures? what is the point? What's he going to do with them? Just think of it as she loves you very much or it wouldn't have bothered her at all!

Isn't telling your wife that you love her boobs basically the same as capturing her youth on film?

Quote from Ram|bunc|tious :
Ironically or not - that was me. The point of this thread, to some degree, was that I'm not happy with those boundaries ... and have a tendency to push against the boundaries to find out where they are Evillaugh

Unfortunately (and this support JJ's claim that I'm a bit whipped here) that the line is different for my wife & I. I don't mind if she checks out a hot guy - which she will on occasion, she's more than ready for my standard "he's probably gay" comment. She, however, has a real problem if I glance sideways at someone.
If you want real advice -- you either push your boundaries as far out as possible (like jj said), you take being whipped (like you said), or you leave things the way they are (having different boundaries).

laugh out loud I think it's wrong for Rammy's wife to be so insecure that she feels the need to invade his personal space and delete harmless photos, so I should stay single. laugh out loud

Sorry rabbit man, I've already reproduced. There's some little jj's ready to take over when I die laugh out loud

Why is taking pictures of other women so important to you, Rammy? I guess I don't understand how giving that up is such a sacrifice that it makes you 'whipped'.

I bet the responses would be total opposite if it was some woman posting the thread. Theyd all say the hubby /SO was being a control freak and they dont see any problem with what she did.Wink
Yep, you are totally right.

So i dont get it - you having fantasies about your husbands boss and what youd do to him is fine (people you both know) but Rammy taking a pic of a total stranger on the beach that has no sexual meaning to him is terrible right ?
