在英文里，这词儿，是 henpecked man.
He is a henpecked man, and his wife wear the pants in the family.
上边的句子，是小鲁亲自写的。主要目的是引出另一个俗语，叫
wear the pants.穿裤子。
who wears the pants in your family?
家里谁主事啊？
这个wear the pants, 一定只能用在这样的情况下。如果说，公司里谁主事啊，得这样说：
who calls the shots in the company?
call the shots, 谁喊“打枪”啊？ 再进一步就是，谁看开火呀？在进一步，谁老大呀？
这个用在任何可以 make very important decision 的情况下。
也是属于俗语这一类。
here in my blog, you call the shots.
