    Banter goes on across the boards irrespective of upbringing morals etc. It does not have to be insulting or derogatory. It certainly does not get acted on.

    What I think is being discussed here is sexual harrassment a completely different situation.

    If the op had come on here saying her husband had asked this woman if she wanted paying for sex and given her a detailed acount of what he wanted to do to her then I would be in complete agreement with you.

    I will put my hands up and agree with you that i am a 'filthy, quiet one' if it makes you happy. My hubby whom i have been married to for 36 years would laugh his socks off if I read him this.

    .

    Sorry are you saying that this thread is about sexual harrasment and not just male banter/high jinks/wishing/ego boosting/daft nonsens?

    What is coming across in this thread is that there are two divides, one that think no harm done, men will be men and it is just a bit of machoness and the other in the opposing side that think it is derogarory(sp) insulting, rude, ignorant of the partners feelings, should never be heard/thought of/used/ discussed or divorce proceedings will ensue.....

    I can honestly say in the exact same situation I would not be too impressed but at the end of the day no crime was committed, no affair, no disloyalty, no wandering off, it was just silly words

    I think you're right in the two views. I personally would be horrified mainly because it would be so unlike the man I know that I'd wonder what had changed him so drastically and not in any good way.

    They are just words but words aren't spoken in a vacuum, something underlies this that makes it acceptable and to me that is even more worrying.

    Are you for real? You just said that if he even thought about it, that would be it for you.
    So presumably you aren't allowed to think about anyone else either?
    Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.
