And lest you think I’m painting all us males with the same despicable brush, I’m not. And here’s why:
For the most part, 3 things keep us on the straight and narrow:
* Fear of G-d
* Respect, hakoras hatov and admiration we have for our wifes
* Society expectations of us not doing things we’re not supposed to do and doing things we are supposed to do.
The husband in our OP has demonstrated that none of the above 3 things matter to him:
He shirks the responsibity Hashem charged him with
He does not appreciate his wife’s role
He disregards what his daas torah told him to do.
Would you trust this man to be a good boy and stay out of trouble for 10 hours a day?
