My wife knows more about cars than I do

A car enthusiast was showing my wife and I some photos of some cars he was working on.  I admitted to him that Esther knows much more about cars than I do.

He asked if that was ever embarrassing.

mmmh, I shoulder shrugged a "whatever" response.

In hindsight, I really like the fact that Esther knows more about cars than me.

I like that we each know more about different things.  Not everything we know and are interested in are completely predictable cliche's.

Men are supposed to like football and know more about cars, and woman are supposed to cook and scrapbook.  That's fine if that's what you're into, but I think a lot of people are just insecure about breaking away from cultural expectations.

It's often easier to listen to the voice of others rather than your own.
