Most women would prefer not to acknowledge such occurrences in any way.

...say “the husband,” the way men will say “the wife?”

The wife said we needed to go to the store. The wife and her friends are getting their nails done. The wife and I are going on vacation.

Never ever.

I am delighted when people speak lovingly and admiringly about each other.

That makes me smile.

Harsh name calling, deserved or not, saddens me, as does using belittling or dismissive terms, as you pointed out.
