Caught! No male would pen that sentence, Sandy. Wouldn't it be "ourselves"?

No, it would not be "ourselves" since I am not in one of the stores in question at the time of writing, nor was I recalling a time when I was in a store with my wife looking for a place to sit.  I was talking about stores in general and males in general, thus "themselves."  When one talks about people who are not themselves, they use the term "them" or "they," not "us," or "we," or "our."  Example: "Baseball players entertain themselves in the dugout."  "Themselves" would not become "ourselves" unless I was both a baseball player, and in the dugout at the time of writing, or was recalling a time when I was both a baseball player and in the dugout entertaining myself.

I don't sit outside stores when my wife goes shopping.  I go in her stores with her, and she goes in mine with me.  She does a lot of things like researching tools for me while I'm at work or busy with other things, so I don't throw my money away on crap, and I do things like tell her what underwear I want her to wear and buy.  It's a mutual benefit, not a one-sided ultimatum or a negotiation.  My wife and I are partners in our relationship, there is no "alpha" and there is no "beta."  We're equal partners.

So, no; not caught.  Let it go, man.
