I was amazed at the number of posts on this topic. My DH is fairly supportive - not in the beginning, but okay with my quilting now. We are both retired so we both have a lot more time to do what we like. The one thing I was happy to see from all the posts - I have now learned my DH is NOT the only male that spends a lot of time on the computer and watching TV. In the spring, summer and fall he fishes and does a little hunting, but not so much anymore, but the time he spends on the computer, playing games and watching TV non-stop seems like a waste of time to me. I can't just stare at the TV without something in my hands.
