It's pure selfishness. Nothing more. A person who cares about another person, cares about what matters to them. And they want to support what makes the other person happy, even if it's not "their thing" personally. That makes a healthy marriage. We aren't going to see eye to eye on everything, but the level of respect has to be there for a marriage to work and be a happy one.
So sorry, Diane, and others who have posted, that your hubbys are antagonistic towards the things you love. I hope you can talk your problems out with them and get to a better understanding, before you can't live with them at all.
