DH: I'm thinking maybe the Brewers should go after Craig Kimbrel he's a pretty good closer.
OP: silence
DH: What do you think?
OP: silence
DH: Honey - did you hear me? Should Milwaukee go after Craig Kimbrel since Corey Knebel is gonna need season-ending Tommy John surgery?
OP: silence
DH: (grouchy now) Honey? Are you listening? What do you think? 
OP: OK
DH: What does that mean? Yes or no? Should they go after Craig Kimbrel? Or do you think they'll be okay with just Josh Hader?

I love this

OP, you probably just talk too much all the time and he’s exhausted. [/quote]

That's so completely sexist.  OP is trying to make PRACTICAL ARRANGEMENTS for childcare, and her DH is ignoring her.  That's not "talking too much," but nice job with the sexist tropes.  [/quote]

DP - what's sexist is to believe OP's side of the relationship dynamic. what if she is like this on everything - from the absolute mundane to important issues.  After a while, the partner just tunes out as there is only so much band with anyone has to listen to a constant series of questions.  what if she poses these questions regularly, and rarely, if ever, agrees with or accepts any of his choices/answers.

you presume too much based on very little information.[/quote]

What if she's like what on every issue?  Actually trying to communicate to come to joint decision making?

Yes, obviously, when someone posts an anonymous question you only have one side of the story. But if you respond to it by presuming sexist stereotypes about their behavior in general based on their gender, then you're not really engaged in an honest attempt to understand the situation.  [/quote]
