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

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.

Hey waitasec
Oh, and jsut to let everyone know... IVIax is wrong.
Sure, but you are missing one hell of a show. Naked pics and all.
Hey waitasec
It's not about the picture, which is why I was trying to give a different scenario. It's about control and boundaries.
I see the point you are making..
Your OT Ratio just hit rock bottom my friend.

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?

Is the guy who wants to have sex with birds still around or did he leave?
And isn't sbux giving advice on moral issues kind of like dividing by zero?
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.
