Modern day Feminism has thrust the words "controlling" and "jealous" onto men.
You're right and I thought someone might bring this up.
On the other hand, we've all witnessed how effective being too possessive of your woman can be - in many cases it has the opposite effect and repulses her, causing you to lose your grip on the situation. This needy type of control and jealousy is the type of I was referring to in the post. You can sometimes give away your power by trying to eradicate every risk.
That being said, yes, there is definitely room for establishing control in your home and relationship that just comes down to not standing for any bullshit. I think it largely depends on the emotional source of your antics and in what manner you lay down the law.

I once let my best friend stay with my girlfriend and I but after a week she told me to send him packing because she was feeling uncomfortable. Hmmm..
It's easy to pass women off as nags when they do this shit, but on the other hand, they are more social creatures. I've always been the guy to say a man is weak to bend to his woman like this, but thinking about more in-depth, maybe they have a better innate understanding of this dynamic than most men do and that's one of the reasons they start raising objections early on.

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
To be your own man is a hard business. If you try it, you'll be lonely often, and sometimes
frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Kipling
