Question

Select the most appropriate meaning of the underlined idiom/phrase (henpecked husbands):

'I had heard of henpecked husbands and now, I felt that I saw one.'

Accepted Answer

The idiom 'henpecked husband' refers to a husband who is dominated or oppressed by his wife. It implies that the husband is submissive or controlled by his wife, often in a way that others notice. Among the options, 'Oppressed husband' best captures this meaning. 'Controlling husband' and 'Dominating husbands' are opposite in meaning, and 'Bossy husbands' does not fit the idiom.
