There is much more to being a Mason than Stated Meetings and Degree work. For the husband who practices the Craft in his daily life the positive effects on both himself and his relationships will be self evident to his family and friends.

But it works out good, she takes classes in the evenings after work so I try to schedule my extra lodge events on those nights. My wife is under the impression that “G” stands for GONE.

That said, some women *don't* like their husbands hanging out with the guys once a week. The friend who got me in rarely shows up after his time as an officer was over because his wife didn't like the idea of him having a cigar and scotch after the meeting. Or coffee and cookies. Or pretty much anything. Yes, the investigating committee should have been available to explain all this to the wife in the first place.
