Wow, WAW, that is terribly controlling. I think we can all better understand why you're here. Your H, for whatever reasons, sounds like one of those men who believes that married life has to be dull and the end of independence for both partners. That stinks.
My W and I had a pretty good way of asking. Either of us, "I'd like to do/go X with Y/by myself on whatever date. Can you watch the girls/do you mind/do we already have something planned for that day?[would you like to come; if appropriate]" Worked out well.
