A quick survey.
November 29, 2015 6:52 pm at 6:52 pm #1115850appdevParticipantMy dog
November 29, 2015 7:30 pm at 7:30 pm #1115851Shopping613 🌠ParticipantMy brother and father do.
November 29, 2015 7:54 pm at 7:54 pm #1115852skripkaParticipantme. my wife lets me say that
November 29, 2015 8:11 pm at 8:11 pm #1115853amazing jewParticipantIt depends when if it’s cold or hot
November 29, 2015 8:15 pm at 8:15 pm #1115854Little FroggieParticipantOish… here goes another character snooping, probing thread…
OK, if you must rally know… How would I be so “busy” over here yapping away, if I was truly needed elsewhere? asdc nmwdio uiowedcnsdvckjh sdcb nmxdbcdsfv hcvnmds j;kn nms.dfh jk <OOPS> that was Frogette… last warning…
November 29, 2015 8:28 pm at 8:28 pm #1115855👑RebYidd23Participanta very talented goldfish.
November 29, 2015 10:49 pm at 10:49 pm #1115856JosephParticipantSo far we have answers ranging from father and brother, aside from a few jokes. It appear that it can be accurately said that no one from this chevra lives in a home where the wife wears the pants.
November 29, 2015 11:03 pm at 11:03 pm #1115857🍫Syag LchochmaParticipanti think the only thing that can accurately be said is that nobody took your question seriously or felt obligated to answer. And i am pretty certain you have asked this question before.
November 29, 2015 11:29 pm at 11:29 pm #1115858JosephParticipantAre you trying to hint that you wear the pants in the house?
November 30, 2015 12:02 am at 12:02 am #1115859👑RebYidd23ParticipantYou clearly have the same agenda as always. So everyone gave a literal answer.
November 30, 2015 2:00 am at 2:00 am #1115860profound101ParticipantOp: literally or figuratively?
November 30, 2015 2:24 am at 2:24 am #1115861JosephParticipantFiguratively. Noting a discrepancy between the figurative answer and the literal answer would also be interesting.
November 30, 2015 2:38 am at 2:38 am #1115862👑RebYidd23ParticipantWhy? You think Fishel The Fish should be in charge?
November 30, 2015 3:09 am at 3:09 am #1115863Little FroggieParticipant’cause he’s an ofishel
November 30, 2015 10:08 pm at 10:08 pm #1115864This name is already takenParticipantMy Wife
November 30, 2015 10:59 pm at 10:59 pm #1115865JosephParticipantIs she MO?
November 30, 2015 11:20 pm at 11:20 pm #1115866MDGParticipant“Is she MO?”
What does that have to do with anything? A woman is the Akeret Habayit, mainstay of the home. She should be in charge of the day to day at home.
A man’s main occupations should be learning, tefillah in shul, and parnassa. When a wife gets in the way of those, then and only then could there be a problem.
If you desire that which is not yours, you will not only not get that other, you will lose you own. Don’t worry about someone else’s tafkid.
December 1, 2015 12:09 am at 12:09 am #1115867JosephParticipantNu, MDG, does your wife wear the pants in the house?
December 1, 2015 12:12 am at 12:12 am #1115868WolfishMusingsParticipantIf it’s cold and she doesn’t feel like turning up the heat, Eeees might put a pair of sweatpants on under her skirt/robe. Does that count?

December 1, 2015 12:30 am at 12:30 am #1115869JosephParticipantWhat will Eeees do if there are guests in the house and it is cold?
December 1, 2015 12:34 pm at 12:34 pm #1115870This name is already takenParticipantsometimes I also wear pants
December 1, 2015 2:39 pm at 2:39 pm #1115871JosephParticipantWho’s the family patriarch when you’re wearing a skirt?
December 1, 2015 3:08 pm at 3:08 pm #1115872🍫Syag LchochmaParticipantwhat is your high level interest in this question? i know you’ve brought it up before at least once. are you trying to placate yourself that you aren’t the only one ruled by your wife?
December 1, 2015 4:24 pm at 4:24 pm #1115873JosephParticipantThis is high level to you? You seem a tad nervous. Do some discussions get under your skin? The only place you saw this previously discussed in recent memory is if you pursued through nonpublished material.
December 1, 2015 4:47 pm at 4:47 pm #1115874mobicoParticipantIn my house, we have more than one pair.
December 1, 2015 4:54 pm at 4:54 pm #1115875🍫Syag LchochmaParticipantto answer your comments and questions:
yes, pursuing a dead topic more than once appears high level to me
im not nervous and dont appear to be so but you do seem to like to throw in those types of comments so ill just move on
do some discussions get under my skin? actually, no, not at all. people’s behaviors do, tho. when the questions/comments/discussions are creepy, rude, condescending, or obssessive (to name a few) it does raise red flags by me.
i already stated above that it was not recent. in fact it was long enough ago that i wouldnt even know where to look for it, had i had an interest in doing so.
i do find many responses and posts get you nervous tho. you seem to over-respond or ignore them altogether. just noting…
December 1, 2015 5:14 pm at 5:14 pm #1115876MDGParticipant“Nu, MDG, does your wife wear the pants in the house?”
We share; each get a pant leg.
December 1, 2015 5:27 pm at 5:27 pm #1115877WolfishMusingsParticipantWhat will Eeees do if there are guests in the house and it is cold?
Either turn up the heat or continue to wear the sweatpants under her skirt or robe. Why is that a problem?
The Wolf
December 1, 2015 5:36 pm at 5:36 pm #1115878JosephParticipantSo you’re dissatisfied whether someone responds too thoroughly (in your esteemed estimation) and if someone responds not at all. Interesting. It’s okay that your nervousness is pointed out to you. And there are no previous discussions of this topic by this poster. (Or by others insofar as I can tell.) But if this is your definition of high level, who am I to argue with you.
December 1, 2015 5:59 pm at 5:59 pm #1115880🍫Syag LchochmaParticipantno im not dissatisfied, no i dont care if someone doesnt respond. i also said nothing in my post that would lead to those assumptions.
i dont know what you interpret as nervousness but i can say that you do have these types of tense, defensive responses when people call you on certain things – this appearantly being one of them.
regrding previous discussions of this topic – i would put money on it. maybe someone else (tho i doubt it) but like you said – who am i to argue with you.
(dont forget to exhale)

December 1, 2015 6:36 pm at 6:36 pm #1115882Little FroggieParticipantSyag.. You’re definitely a very brave soul!! Without speaking too much… I’ve spoken about this to one who was here LONG before me… certain people have certain agendas.. for better or.. After a brief time the true person gets revealed.. You get to see a person by what’s on his/her mind.. what excites them. As Rabbi Miller ??”? says, ???? ??? ????? – according to what he praises or gets enthusiastic about. Personally, I’m not such a people person, definitely not in real life, but one who is cannot fail to build profiles of posters by what they post.
December 1, 2015 7:14 pm at 7:14 pm #1115883WolfishMusingsParticipantWolf: How is how one dresses in front of guests different from a tznius perspective than how one dresses out in public?
It’s not.
How is wearing sweatpants under a skirt in public a problem? They function the same way as really thick tights.
The Wolf
December 2, 2015 7:52 pm at 7:52 pm #1115884HashemisreadingParticipantMy daughter *gasp* shes 2.
December 3, 2015 8:35 pm at 8:35 pm #1115885Little FroggieParticipantMy daughter does too. Literally and figuratively. She’s one. And my whole day, all my jobs, visits, meetings are dependent on her!! (If she was up the previous night I know I’m gonna have a pretty good day) Oy does SHE wear the pants…
December 3, 2015 9:04 pm at 9:04 pm #1115886dafbiyunParticipantI wear the pants that which have a waist size a few inches wider than I would prefer cause my wife wears the pants when it comes to deciding how many different desserts our guests need ( as well as everything else).
December 10, 2015 5:14 am at 5:14 am #1115887☢️ Rand0m3x 🎲ParticipantWho’s the family patriarch when you’re wearing a skirt?
You are, assuming you’re Scottish… But if that was in response
to This name is already taken, he didn’t say he ever wore a skirt.
December 10, 2015 6:05 am at 6:05 am #1115888JosephParticipantWhat’s being worn during the other times than the sometimes tniat is wearing pants?
December 10, 2015 6:15 am at 6:15 am #1115889👑RebYidd23ParticipantIn my house, no pants are designated as “the pants” except Fishels. But we all wear pants.
December 10, 2015 7:06 pm at 7:06 pm #1115890golferParticipantWhat a disagreeable, quarrelsome, ornery thread I stumbled on.
I think a better question would be-
Who wears the pants in the Coffeeroom?
And who wishes they did?
December 10, 2015 7:42 pm at 7:42 pm #1115891JosephParticipantDisagreeable? Have you missed this thread?:
