The Unwritten 'Pilot's Wife' Law

Now, I would say that most pilot wives feel a certain sense of camaraderie, and I think that that is fantastic. I love being a part of things like the Pilot's Wives Club etc. Though there is something I always found funny....I call it 'THE LAW"

Here is the unspoken law in Pilot Wife Land. (Not all regions, but many!)

1. Thou shall not doubt thy pilot's fidelity, nor shall thou strike doubt into the heart of any other pilot's wife about the integrity within their relationship.

Being someone who openly admits that she does not simply trust her pilot mate because he is her mate, will be considered a violator of such law..


Now to that I say a happy, hearty 'fuck you'! My pilot is still a member of the group called "men" who, have a reputation that goes something like this:
If given the right circumstances, they will 'accidentally' fall dick first, into any hole that allows before they have even realized they have made a mistake.

Okay now... before the huffity get huffin' and the uppity get uppin' .. Yes, I am aware that this is not true of all men.

But the truth of the matter is that most of us, are completely unaware of a cheating husband until the guillotine drops on the very necks we have stuck out in the name of trust. Therefore, I refuse to the one whose heads roll away after the guillotine's chop, nor will I be the one who safely puts it in the sand all because she does not want to acknowledge a crack in the cement of her relationship.

Better to check for cracks, then let them bring your house down around you. And many women could tell you... It only takes one unwanted crack to ruin a relationship, and it doesnt matter which homewrecking slut's crack it is!

So to you all I say, let there be suspicion, the spouse on spouse email snoop, and the occasional blackberry messenger peek. I say let us call our pilots what they are, humans, in a profession that allows for things that none of us ever want to be a victim of.

And let us say fuck you to the unwritten law because I am tired of women making it easier for any Jane, Sue or Mary to be the unwanted crack in their relationship.
