Talking of *which, it makes my teeth grind equally when people call presents 'prezzies"! Why must the British (Scots included) demean the use of their native tongue?
ermm... hehe.. i dont like the term Hubby either... lol, i just dont know why hehe...
but i am so ever proud when my Husband introduce me to his friends as his wife... like: This is my wife, Zobel..." same as "This is my husband, Jay..."
i think it depends on people really...
we all have terms of endearment... YOUR RULES, YOUR STYLE...
Wow I can`t believe how stressed some people are getting about this, it`s very funny!
Me, I love to hear my wife call me anything, cos the special thing for me is that now I can see her lips saying it instead of just hearing the words down a phone line or seeing them on a computer screen.
Still, if everybody had the same opinion it`d be a very boring world....
Of course in some relationships the wife is known as " she who must be obeyed " but only in some .
I love to think that I am very submissive to my husband... lol...or am i?
Well, I'm a MAN - and I can call my wife ANYTHING I want to!!!!!!!!!
Errr...........as long as I get her permission.

Pressed rat and warthog closed down their shop!
What's wrong with hubby. My wife has called me far worse before now!

Although it seems a bit irrational, I have to respect his view on being called "hubby" when other and more appealing (to him) forms of endearment are available.
Oh, well......
