[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only thing OP said her DH did was make fun of her outfit.  It's not clear if he refused to let her come to the party unless she changed, or if OP was pissed off at his bumblebee comment and refused to go to the party.  The first scenario is abuse.  The second scenario is super immaturity on OP's part.

I am surprised so many people are calling him abusive when OP's original facts are so lacking.

OP - we need more info. [/quote]

Enough of your trolling!

There's absolutely nothing that can justify OP's husband mocking her outfit , having their children movk her outfit. Getting upset when she didn't change and then taking their kids and leaving because he didn't get his way.
That's abusive behavior period.

We don't excuse abusive behavior on DCUM so I suggest you go troll elsewhere.[/quote]

If my DH's outfit looks absurd, like shirt too short and pants too low, I tell him I won't be seen with him, and our daughter mocks him too until he changes.  Its because we care that he not embarass himself.

I just don't understand the double standard here.  If you are a true feminist like me (I am a 3rd generation college educated mother, financially independent, and the bread winner of my home), well then it goes both ways.  If I look like  a bumble bee, I want to know too.[/quote]

What double standard? I would never tell my H I won’t be seen with him, and I’d never tolerate our child mocking him. I would politely let him know if his pants were too low, but if he chooses to wear them, that’s his choice. It’s not my place to decide what is or isn’t embarrassing for him. [/quote]

I don't walk on eggshells around my husband or worry about my place in the relationship.  I speak my mind.  And really, in these pandemic times, if any couples biggest argument was over a bumble bee outfit, you are a great couple.  [/quote]
