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.

I tried reading all 8 pages but damn, it made my head hurt. I can't say either way but just a bit of advice for next time... take the pics without the hand and then just make them seem like you were taking pictures of the beach. The girls just HAPPENED to be in the shot. Thumbup

Damn, I'm about to agree with jj again.

It's not about the picture, which is why I was trying to give a different scenario. It's about control and boundaries.
Maybe we can be friends afterall hug laugh out loud

I see the point you are making..

Sure there is, that's not the point. It was just a picture he took in passing, though. I don't understand the posessiveness in that situation.
If I remember correctly, Rammy intended to use those photos to make them into a funny post. So she deprived him of some nonsexual enjoyment of that. Or maybe he was just joking when he said that, I don't know.

My issue is that it's possible for him to take pictures of people (including women) and it be totally nonsexual (which it was). It's part of vacation. Part of the scenery. If he wants to take 3-4 pictures of girls, why is she so insecure about it? Why the need to be sneaky and delete the photos? Why be so uptight over nothing? Is she going to be angry if he picks up the sports illustrated swim suit issue in the doctor's office? Where does it end?
How far does Rammy have to go to ensure that he doesn't hurt the feelings of his oversensitive and insecure wife?

Wait, so now deleting a picture that was taken while a husband was lusting after another woman while on family vacation while sitting right next to the kiddos is the same as throwing a pan away and throwing an old comfy bra away. Yep. Makes a ton of sense.
Except it wasn't taken out of lust. Again, not going through the entire thread, but he said he was going to use the photos as part of a joke post (unless he was kidding about that)

Just because the stranger he photographed was hot, some women think it is wrong.
If it was a 60 year old woman or man, I'm sure the wife would have no issue seeing that it was not taken out of lust.

Femine insecurity.

Well in this situation, he told her that he felt that way about the sweater and she kept it anyway and a few days later he threw it out. No, not right of him to throw it out but it's also not right of her to keep it and make him feel that way.
Actually, I side with the woman here. She should be able to wear whatever she wants, as long as covers what the law requires.

Whatever.. You are the one calling those women on the beach "skanks" when you haven't even seen them, much less met them. They're automatically skanks just because Rammy took a picture of them?
