Well, not all men, but yes - a lot. Why not, if a woman allows it? :) They put up with it, so the behavior will not change, and maybe they are fine with this arrangement. I'm never trying to push my idea of what a relationship should be on any culture, or even friends/family here in the USA. Different people want different things from their partners or spouses. I was mostly around Georgian men on my trip, not women. Thus, I don't clearly understand the gender dynamics there - I only spent time with one Georgian woman and she told me men "must sit at home and nurse their pride and ego, while women work." I've never heard such bullshit in my life..I would not put up with it, as I'm not a big fan of male ego. :))
