Oldgringo, I agree with you, and I'm a woman. It is a man's responsibility to protect his family. If a man, husband, father, whatever, will not man up and lets the woman make all the decisions then, IMO, he's worthless. I agree, that marriage is a partnership and there must be mutual understanding, but there is also a hierarchy: God, family, self. If the head of a household cannot or will not protect his family because a wife is dominating the relationship, then there will be chaos.
In our household, fortunately, we agree on just about everything, and what we don't agree on we come to an understanding on.

How do you convice someone, if you even can?
Last weekend the 16 year old son of some friends of ours was assaulted in his front yard, after he was dropped off by a friend. This happened at 11:00 pm. They don't normally have problems in their neighborhood, but the police thinks it was a gang from another town. He is ok, but the police still have not caught who did it, and they probably never will. Our friends are anti-gun, well, it's mostly the wife; she won't let them get a gun, not even a shotgun. After this incident I asked if they are reconsidering purchasing a gun for their home. Nope. They won't even consider it, even though, these guys have not been caught. I think he's mad at me for asking. What's it take for people to realize that they are responsible for their own safety.
