OP I have been in your shoes and did not say it so delicately, because that is gross and why an adult would put their feet on someone else's pillow is beyond me. Be polite!! Your husband's response was disproportionate - why I cannot say.

I routinely put DW's bare ass on my pillow to create better angles. Feet would not faze me.

But I'll bet you a dollar that your DW doesn't put YOUR bare ass on her pillow. Because she'd think that was gross.

I would have said the same thing.

His reaction was extreme.
There is something else lurking below the surface here and it could be minimal like he had a bad day at work or it could be a bigger issue such as hidden growing resentment toward you that has reached his threshold.

Either way, you both need to discuss what happened so that it will not lead to more resentment.

The issue here is not really about the dirty feet on your pillow, it is more about why he reacted back in such an extreme manner to something that most people would just blow off.
