Let her have the tantrum. Its just a tactic designed to get her way and she'll stop doing it if it's ineffective.

If you really want it done, remove all distractions and set a timer. Unplug you computer and TV, turn off the phone, hide the books and just tear into it for 4 hours. Without the availability of distractions you'll likely have more success over a short period of time.

How do you recommend dealing with declutter categories that more than one person owns? For instance, I can't just go through the kitchen and get rid of the pots and pans we don't need because my wife gets upset. I also don't want to back her into a corner to get rid of stuff, that's no fun.

It's time for you to set boundaries. Tell her you appreciate that she buys you clothes, but you need to be able to develop your own sense of style. If she'd like to buy you clothes in the future, you'd appreciate gift cards to X, Y or Z.

If you have a friend with a similar size, maybe they'd do clothes swaps with you where you both bring the things you no longer wear and pick it over.
