Hubby 'docks my pay'

Am I a complete idiot or what? We've been married for almost 5 years. I'm the bread winner, always have been, always will be. He's unemployed at the moment, but is currently still giving me $200/wk....I bought the house before marrying him, I pay the mortage and all bills, except his car insurance. He was carrying the medical insurance when he was working, but I have since picked that up. Him being out of work isn't the issue, nor is how much money he contributes to the household, it's the fact that I have to listen to his remarks and threats that he's going to hold back $30 if I happen to busy or have to be somewhere and am not able to make supper -- even though he's home all day. He makes me feel like being married is more of a job than anything, and if I don't live up to my duties, I'm docked money.

Does anyone else have an old-world thinking husband like mine. Am I an idiot or just being selfish?
