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.

/being nice to Max
Shit.. he agreed with jj98437698437 over me once and God knows I should find that offensive.
And thanks for quoting gossipgirl, she's on my forced ignore list because she kept mod-alerting me

I'm cool with Max, he even said that he was going to name his next kid after me, if he can find a woman to have sex with.

See you guys in a week
This is the point. When you marry someone, they are not going to be 100% the way you want them to be. You have to accept the fact that they are not your puppet, and may occasionally behave in a way you don't want them to.
Let the small faults go. If the worst thing Rammy does it take 3 pictures at the beach, he's a good husband.
The other part of this point is that you can not expect to "change" your mate. That sounds obvious, but many people do not reallize that. 99% of the time, they will not change. They may change temporarily, but usually they will revert back. So one needs to realize that, and accept the person for who they are or leave the relationship.

Don't encourage him to have kids.

Look I will acknowledge I could have used better judgment in snapping a few photos but she had no right to delete those photos. Yes, I gave her a piece of my mind.
... or you can bypass this rule and bring me a sandwich & a cold beer
Since you asked this twice, I will respond.. I wouldn't care. I would not feel threatened. Never really worried about stuff like that. If you're with a cheater, it's going to happen. Trying to stop them from looking at other people, etc won't prevent them from cheating if they are so inclined. I wouldn't be offended at all, but I guess I am comfortable with myself. Don't feel threatened if a girlfriend talks to a more desirable guy and he hits on her.. again, if it happens it happens.. it's better to show that you are self confident and secure instead of trying to prevent it.
I dated a girl in college that had posters of shirtless, muscle bound men all over her dorm room. I thought it was funny. I wasn't threatened that she'd dump me for some steriod freak.
