I say they don't have the right as no wife wants to be just like our mother...

    Wives should sit quietly with their hands folded.

    Perhaps your behavior caused her to mistake you for a child

    I think I'd burst out laughing if I tried "evoking the middle name". I've made a note to try this and not laugh.

    Five Deadly Terms Used by a Woman

    1 FINE: This is the word women use to end an argument when she knows she is right and you need to shut-up.
    2 NOTHING: Means something and you need to be worried.
    3 GO AHEAD: This is a dare, not permission, do not do it.
    4 WHATEVER: A woman's way of saying screw you.
    5 THAT'S OKAY: She is thinking long and hard on how and when you will pay for your mistake.
    Bonus Word WOW! This is not a compliment, she's amazed that one person could be so stupid.

    You have been warned!

    I think you mean "INvoking"? Evoking is something entirely different...

    I do this to my son. I call him by his first and middle name, and that's how he knows I mean business.

    I just do it to my kids. I call my husband by his first and last name when he is being a dufus...lol

    But I've never done this to my husband, as he already goes by his middle name as his handle, anyway. So it wouldn't really have the same pissed-off ring if I used his real full name.

    I had a horrible habit of replacing his middle name with a curse word. So it'd be first name, curse word, last name. Lol.

    I use the FULL name when he's being a bad or stupid boy, but I also use his FULL name occasionally while in bed. Nothing better than confusing him and keeping him on his toes.

    You're very forgiving.

    I would have said it was time for a new one.

    My husband says he knows if I'm upset, if I even just use his first name when addressing him, instead of sweetheart or another endearment. If I used his middle name in anger, I may go without sex for awhile.... thinking of his mom would not be a turn on for him. I do use first and last when joking around yelling if he does something stupid, joking around.

    I confess I don't have a husband, but I can't imagine calling a grown man by his full name when I am upset with him. That's actually kind of funny!
