[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m on Team You Both are in the Wrong.

He’s actually not totally being a hypocrite - there’s a difference between name calling, which you did and which is more hurtful and harmful, and simply swearing. It’s not clear that you get that or that he knows that you get that.

He was immature for storming off and leaving without discussion. At least he could have told you that he needed to cool down before he was ready to discuss. But it doesn’t seem like you picked a great time or way to bring up hos swearing. Maybe a few days later, in a gentle tone and in private, would have been better. Or just letting it go. [/quote]

OP here. Yeah, when we talked again, this came out. My timing did stink, you're right. It was in a fun moment, and I shouldn't have done that and chosen a different time.

However, I never called him names. I'm not sure where that's coming from. I think my actual words were "I'm not your f-ing secretary." It was wrong still, but I didn't name call.

After more discussion, I think he really does believe that d GD aren't swear words. I'm sort of shocked by that, but OK. I ended it (hopefully) with that he's certainly entitled to his opinion, but he's not entitled to mine, and I'm of the opinion that they are, in that I also wouldn't want our daughter repeating them.

I agree with the others. He’s a man baby. I’m sure it will blow over. Along with being entitled to you own opinions, just agree on what is ok and not okay to say in front of children. And then know you’ll mess up, because we all do. I’ve accidentally dropped the F bomb and so has my DH.

This just made me wonder, no one says, “woman-baby.” What’s the equivalent? Is there one? Hmmmm....[/quote]
