> Musk told his wife, as they were having their 'first dance at the wedding' - that 'he's the alpha' in the relationship.

Oh god if that happened... is it possible to die from cringing?

It's such a crazy and demeaning thing to say to someone, especially 'right after the fact' at the wedding, after the vows.

'Buy the way, this is the other part of the deal you just signed!'

I stick my foot in the mouth all the time, but I would never do anything like that.

He's crazy rich, powerful and famous, marrying a young, probably a little naive woman ... the 'roles' seem rather obvious, no reason to demean the poor girl.

It's a smarter strategy than keeping quiet and assuming she is ok with it.

"It's a smarter strategy than keeping quiet and assuming she is ok with it."

He should have made it clear before they were married.

Not brought something so important up a) after the fact and b) during their first dance at the wedding (!!).

Chump move.
