Yep!

I see this kind of mentality the same as the women afraid to do things for fear of upsetting their husbands. These are abusive relationships.
That being said, my husband and I will say "I don't think my husband/wife will be down with me doing that" if we just don't want to do it because we've given permission to elbe each other's out when needed to spare the feelings of dear friends.
Yes!
I was gonna add that point you just mentioned: if a woman said that, we'd right away suspect she's in an abusive relationship, but when a guy does it, somehow many ppl act like it's very endearing. It's really the same dynamic in my eyes.
I see what you mean about the latter mentioned scenario.
