I was going to post a really eloquent, well written essay on here about how we should all stand up for our right to speak when we want to and to say what we want, but
Spoiler:

I daren't because my wife says she'll bash me if I do.

Haha, that reminds me of the fable of the one wise man:

A henpecked Sultan was sick of the henpecking, and summoned the men of his realm.

"Men!" he said. "I want all of you who are not under the control of your wives to go and stand by the fountain. Those who bow to their wives' command go to the statue."

One solitary man, looking rather sheepish, moved to the fountain. The sultan was delighted!

"Good fellow, please tell me your secret and I will give you riches beyond your imagining!" beamed the sultan"

"My lord," said the wise man. "It is this. My wife said she would kill me if I didn't."
