M: 懼內:怕老婆。
Z: 惧内:古时称妻子为内人。丈夫惧怕妻子便叫惧内。即怕老婆

The Greek universe must have had considerable appeal for the henpecked males of these societies, and we know that the Great Mother made quite an impression on the Greeks themselves.
希腊共同体必定对在这些社会下惧内的男性们产生相当大的吸引力,并且我们还知道,掌权的母系曾经对希腊本身造成了相当的影响。”

He says he is hen-pecked, but it's always his wife who does the unpleasant jobs.
他说他是怕老婆的,但讨厌的工作却是他的妻子做。

A henpecked husband is one who always agrees to do what his wife wants.
怕老婆的丈夫就是一个愿向老婆屈服的人。
