It seems that in a lot of relationships, the woman plays the role of the mother, or the big sister, and constantly acts like she's more mature, and often nags her husband/boyfriend/partner, sometimes treating him like a big kid/boy. Countless sitcoms/folk tales/stereotypes from various cultures seem to back this up.

Is this a typical trend, do most women tend to nag sometimes, or is it a sizeable minority?

I know some husbands exasperate their wives, but I think some women take it too far, having to take issue with everyone and just not being chill enough. Like somewhere between totally anal and a drug addict slob or something.

Call your husband at least 20 times a day while at work....even when he's in the middle of taking a #2.

Lay off the phone....just lay it down.

Im not a bible thumper but somewhere in the bible it says that one of the curses that Adam (man) got for eating the forbidden fruit was that he would have a nagging wife.
