While it's basically comparing a douche and a turd, I really don't see how Vegeta is supposed to be a better husband.
Vegeta can sometimes be convinced to begrudgingly accompany his family places, and puts in absolutely no effort aside from that. Goku can be convinced to farm, even then it's pointless and he could make much more money anyway doing what he loves.
Both will usually leave at the slightest opportunity to train or if they think the other will get ahead of them.

Also I assume Saiyan’s are more the free love kinda people. Entering any hole & having anything entered in their hole as they please.
And yes Chi-Chi is not the sympathetic party here nor is Vegeta that good of a husband.

Mr Satan the con man and Mr "I'm gonna ignore Freiza and let my universe be the second worst in the multiverse".
Not to mention considering Shin a character over Obuni, who has an entire episode, compared to Shin, who's only contribution in Super is as a transport vehicle.

During Z he can be excused for not taking out Freiza since he was focusing on Buu and was inexperienced, but during Super the Old Kai seem to have not taught him since the end of Z, considering he doesn't even know he has a co-worker or higher-ups. How much time has passed between Z and Super anyway?
Either 5 years or a few months, depending on how you're measuring time. The start of Super says that it's only been a few months, but accepting that requires retconning Pan and Bra's ages to be closer to Uub's age.
Personally, I go with the latter, which indicates that it's only been 2, maybe 2 and a half years since the Buu Saga at the point Super is at now.

I'm always going to defend Shin, because his position is not his fault.
If Beerus hadn't sealed Old Kai in a sword and then slept through Buu's massacre, Old Kai would still be Kai, and maybe their universe would be better.
Shin did the best he could, but was saddled with a job he wasn't prepared for, and people who flat out ignored him when it was convenient to them.
As for Chi-Chi...she's a joke. Literally. Everything about her character since she showed up at the 23rd Budokai is built on a joke, first a massive Brick Joke, then about being a nagging wife and Education Mama.
And it's a stupid joke at that, since Goku would be far happier and in his element teaching Martial Arts...or so I'd say, if I believed for a moment that Goku cares about teaching anyone. He only wants to find good fights himself, and barring Gohan (which was a necessity) and Uub (who was Buu reincarnated, and a good sparring partner) has never shown an inkling of interest in teaching others.
Toriyama seems to have latched on to the Goku is not a good father idea for humour as well, which infuriates me (because dammit, all of Goku's fathering issues in Z stem from outside forces, and when something isn't making him not be there—or the author isn't writing him out—he's clearly a very good dad).
In summation, Handsome Rob right, everyone else wrong.
One Strip! One Strip!I was going to say popes aren't voted for but that not exactly correct
I guess you'd need to find who the dbz cardinals are
Forever liveblogging the AvengersUnless you're Toei, where she's back to it with Goten now.
Now I wish Toriyama had never brought Chi-Chi back, if this is all anyone can think to do with her.
One Strip! One Strip!It is what it is and dragon ball has never been anything except what it is but I lament the ballooning power levels because I would have loved a battle couple moment with Chichi and Goku.
She was never going to catch up because nobody was but she also didn't have to become the one note joke she did.
She could have been okay with Gohan learning to fight as long as he also knew how to read. Even Roshi taught Goku to read. And her deal could have been less 'no fighting he must become respectable member of society, I mean I hear society is great, I personally live in a flaming mountain but it must be great, this society' to more 'I thiiiiink he's too young to take a punch? Maybe lets wait until he can use the toilet reliably'
More than anything else I just feel bad for Chichi through the first half of dragonball z. Her husband dies and her son gets kidnapped from a party she wasn't invited to (or didn't want to come to? It was an underpopulated party really). Then she doesn't see her son for a year while he's being trained by her dead husband's archenemy and then her husband comes back to life but gets put in the hospital and her son goes off to space. And then her husband goes off to space and then disappears on an exploding planet, deciding to train in space instead of coming home when he's been dead or in the hospital for most of the recent past.
And then her husband comes back but then takes her son to go train to fight some deadly androids and then takes him into a magical room so she misses a whole year of her son growing up in a day and then her husband dies again.
It would take someone with the patience of a saint to take that in stride.
Forever liveblogging the AvengersAt first I was like Zabuuuh?
Then I remembered you were talking about Chi-chi.
Well, Toriyama is a gag writer at heart. While action became something he focused on more, I think the jokes are what really brings him to the game, for better or for worse.
Chi-Chi had as much potential as any character, and it's sad that that was thrown away for cheap gags about what a nag she is. She could have been more, even if her being important in combat was never going to be a thing.
One Strip! One Strip!

I like Chi Chi
Damn that feel when Vegeta is a better husband than you
I feel sorry for her
