My H loved Steel Magnolias, and Beaches. The last few times we have rented movies at the local rent place, he always picks out sci-fi related flicks and I pick out what looks good. Well, he has complained that the ones he has picked out sucked, lol, while the ones I picked out he sat and watched and even enjoyed. Then again he doesn't really watch much sports either.
In my capacity as SSM physician, it is obvious that your H has a culturally induced testosterone deficiency.
My prescription: On Saturday afternoon, sit him down in front of the TV for 6 hours of college football. While he is watching, go out and rent a martial arts movie, preferably with Jet Li rather than Jackie Chan, and "Crouching Tiger/Hidden Dragon", as good as it is, is not a good choice due to an excess of strong female characters.
Once he is done with all of this macho entertainment, he will be ripping your bodice by 9PM.

P.S. I would never try this myself, because I have no shortage of testosterone. If I did this, I would be ripping someone's head off by 9PM .
