If your husband really is opposed to it, you should refrain from joining chat rooms.
Imagine if it were the other way around, would you want your husband chatting online with others?
I know some married people who do chat with the general population online however, many of them flirt and carry on with complete strangers.
If you must chat online, why not just reserve that for family and friends? Encourage them to get online when you can't get together and have a good old chin wag that way.
Either way, I hope you both reach a satisfactory compromise.

Depends on your intent. There are probably a lot of chat rooms that are completely safe, with good conversation. Start throwing in sex and it messes it up (Isn't that true of so many things??)
Try this: Sit down with your husband and find a chat room that you want to join. Start chatting as you sit together at the computer. When he sees that you are not trying to hook up, he'll be ok with it. He'll either get bored and let you do it, or he'll want an account of his own.
Good luck. Have fun. Stay clean.....

Back in the day when you picked up your phone to call someone and you got a bunch of people on the same line, you could all talk all day long about anything. Chat rooms, in my opinion are just like that today. There are chat rooms for just about any situation and anything. All you have to do is look. And it is easier today than back then because all you have to do is type.

Depends on what kind of chat room you are joining.
I chat with a couple of friends I hooked up with on here or 360, and they are male. THEY ARE THE BEST listeners and we have some great conversations.
My husband knows all about them because I told him and he will ask me what they are up to, and what did they have to say.
They totally respect the fact that I am married and one of them is too. So I respect that.
There are more sides to a conversation then pick-up lines and maybe your husband needs to know that.
My husband knows where my heart is, and is strong enough in our relationship so that it isn't any issue.
If you do join a chat, make sure the other person knows where you stand! That you are married, and happily.
I wouldn't mind at all if my husband talked to other women, in his profession he has to do it every day...

I suppose if you're in a dating chatroom, he has a good reason to discourage you. However, there are tons of chat rooms, even ones you can create for yourself and your pals. Perhaps you can sit down with him and each find a chat room you'd both be interested in. That way he'll see what it's all about.

Depends on the chat room. Some are specifically for "hooking up". Most are just for general chat about various topics of interest.

Chat rooms are for everyone. But your hubby doesn't want you talking to other guys. Would you like him talking to other women?
Don't forget that what you do he can do too.
Chat rooms can be fun and interesting but a lot of guys are there to meet and hook up with women. Women too. If you go to chat be aware of that.
Good Luck!

Whatever you do... you and your husband need to respect each other. If it's that important to him and it's not a "control" issue - then just let it go. Respecting each other will take you a long way in your marriage. Good luck! and... my opinion of chat rooms... nobody is "real". Just like the stereotype internet dating stuff - it's always who they make themselves to be... you can't really know a person until you spend time with them. Might be rambling, but chat room sounds like trouble.

Well im not married but i think if you honestly know thatyou arent doing anything wrong like flirting and misleading people and it isnt a dating chat room then i dont see a problem with it. Also remind your husband why your with him and not these other people he probably just wants to spend time with you :)
