Thanks. So Vivisectus was correct in his conclusion about that part of it.

Is it taking advantage to ask your husband or wife to spend more time with you because you enjoy his or her company and you feel happier when they do even if they want to do other things alone? On the one hand it seems like it would be taking advantage to ask them to sacrifice their desires but on the other hand spending time together isn't something that the person can do for themselves.

I'm not just trying to make fun of you or trip you up. I'm trying to find a consistent pattern so that I can predict what has the right of way without just calling it a sexist idea.
