Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Throwaway in case he sees this. He may anyways but I'll deal with that if it happens.

Husband is 34, smartest guy I know academically but common sense challenged. He's a geologist for a major oil company and works very, very hard and makes a good living. But we have had to live in some real shit holes over the years (like SA, where I really didn't leave our company compound for 2 years). We are back in the LA area and he thinks now we have "open roads" (the 405...what?) he wants a motorcycle. 

I am dead against it. They are too dangerous, it probably won't get used, it's a bad example for the kids, it looks super douche-bro, and I think he'll move onto his next hobby and forget about it.

We aren't getting divorced over this or anything but our opposing stances are causing major friction. Am I the asshole?
