Underlying tensions in the Japanese family home

[Mulboyne]

Japanese netizens have noticed that if you search on google.co.jp for "husband" (夫) or "wife" (妻), followed by a space, you get some suggested phrases based on other common searches:

• 夫 死んで欲しい　　　　　　　　　　妻 誕生日プレゼント
  夫 嫌い　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 妻 誕生日プレゼント ランキング
  夫 小遣い 平均　　　　　　　　　　 妻 プレゼント
  夫 言葉の暴力　　　　　　　　　　　妻 ヒステリー
  夫 小遣い　　　　　　　　　　　　　　妻 呼び方
  夫 呼び方　　　　　　　　　　　　　　妻 うつ
  夫 死亡 手続き　　　　　　　　　　 妻 プレゼント ランキング
  夫 うつ　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　妻 謙譲語
  夫 失業　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 妻 未届
  夫 死亡 年金　　　　　　　　　　　　妻 焼酎

The first three for "wife" (on the right) are phrases linked to presents for her while the top suggestion for "husband" is "I wish my husband was dead" followed by "I hate my husband". Further down are "What to do when my husband dies", "Husband and beating (or shooting)" and "Husband's pension after death". The picture you get is one of a husband kept on a short leash by his wife, with a small mount of pocket money, who routinely resorts to violence. He then tries to make amends with presents after his wife has a breakdown while she resorts to drinking shochu and planning his death.

I kinda suspect the "utsu" in 「夫　うつ」is utsubyou (鬱病 depression）rather than "shoot".

Still not exactly an expression of love.
