GQ has compiled a list of men that have been subjected to the proverbial "p" whipping by their bossy and/or powerful women. Many of them are fathers as well. I think there is a big difference between being a dotting dad and wuss, I hope GQ took that into consideration.
That said, here's the list:
- 25. Mark Consuelos, wife Kelly Ripa
- 24. Rudolph Giuliani, wife Judy
- 23. Larry King, wife Shawn Southwick
- 22. Michael Douglas, wife Catherine Zeta-Jones
- 21. Seal, wife Heidi Klum
- 20. Kevin Smith (the Clerks director), wife Jennifer Schwalbach
- 19. Sergay Brin (34-year-old Google wunderkind), wife Anne Wojcicki
- 18. Ben Stiller, wife Christine Taylor
- 17. Gerald Levin (the former CEO of Time Warner), wife Laurie Perlman
- 16. Jack Welch (the former General Electric chair-man and CEO), wife Suzy Wetlaufer
- 15. Tim Burton, wife Helena Bonham Carter
- 14. Keith Urban, wife Nicole Kidman
- 13. Elton John, husband David Furnish
- 12. John Edwards, former presidential candidate, wife Elizabeth
- 11. Woody Allen, wife Soon-Yi Previn
- 10. Ashton Kutcher, wife Demi Moore -he's top 5 for sure
- 9. Howard Stern, wife Beth Ostrosky
- 8. Rupert Murdoch (Aussie billionaire), wife Wendi Deng
- 7. Kurt Warner (quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals), wife Brenda
- 6. Marc Anthony, wife Jennifer Lopez -shouldn't he be higher?
- 5. Josh Kelly, wife Katherine Heigl
- 4. Bill Gates, wife Melinda
- 3. Eminem, wife Kimberly
- 2. Doug Christie, wife Jackie
- 1. Guy Ritchie, wife Madonna
There is
a slideshow at GQ that explains why each man made the list. It's pretty funny, at least it seems like it is, my wife wouldn't let me read it.
