AIBU to expect DH to use a pink toothbrush ?

[Lastminutelizzie]

Last toothbrush left in a multipack in bathroom cupboard is pink & my DH is refusing to use it - in the privacy of our own bathroom, it's not as if I'm expecting him to take it to work or anything ! He has asked my to go shopping tomorrow to buy a more masculine colour. I won't have time tomorrow, I have a very busy day and we don't need any other shopping !!!

Pink is just a colour. Most men wouldn't even notice.

Maybe his reluctance is due to him being insecure about his sexuality. Does he worry that a pink toothbrush will cause one thing to lead to another and tomorrow he'll be having hot sweaty man fun?

Or is he just a bit of a twat?

Tell him he clearly has "late onset colour blindness", that the toothbrush is grey and you are booking an urgent apt with the GP in the morning. Then watch him scrub his teeth and head for Dr. Google.

We'll probably not but what a bizarre idea in this day and age and its YOUR problem to 'fix' it? Buy him a Thomas the Tank engine toothbrush tomorrow since he's clearly 6 yrs old in the 1950's

If your busy let him Get it himself but by the same token if he doesn't want that colour why should he have to have it. (Nothing to do with pink)

I don't like green toothbrushes and would never buy one for myself as is my prerogative

Well its manky teeth for him then. He doesnt "have" to use it does he.

YANBU

Has his current toothbrush self-destructed? Why can't it wait till you are next shopping?

Does he think his teeth will catch the gay?

Yanbu. He can yo and buy a new multipack and pick his favorite colour.

Here is the solution!
Manly Toothbrush

What is he, 6 years old?! The City is full of solidly hetero bankers and high flying business types who wear pink shirts all the time.

Or this one. Radius Toothbrush Review

This is the kind of thing I'd actually say LTB to. He sounds like some type of homophobic oaf from the 50s.

Is anyone else now humming it is it just me?

if he wants another colour, he should go buy it

Is anyone else now humming this it is it just me?

That was my first thought.

It's in my head now, bollocks!

YANBU!

Took DS to buy a new mouthguard the other day, and they only had pink ones on display. The guy in the shop seemed really worried about this, and offered to go and look for another colour in the stock room. He looked a bit shocked when DS said 'Nah, it's OK, my hockey stick is pink too' (which it is ).

Dh has a pink toothbrush. Judging from last night..he has yet to catch The Gay..

Make him buy his own fucking toothbrush

LTB!
Well maybe not leave, but tell him he's being a massive twat.

If she weren't busy should she have bought it for him? He's a Big Boy now.

Don't see a problem with this. He would prefer a different colour, asked you to get one and would probably give you the money for it too.

Is there any reason for her to run silly errands for him? She's his wife, not his assistant.

That's hilarious OP. I would take the piss out of him about it at every opportunity.

Are you married to a 12 year old?

You've provided a toothbrush, he doesn't like that toothbrush 'coz it's for gurlz and gayz WAAAHH'. Tell him to buy his own bloody toothbrush.

ApocalypseThen helping your spouse doesn't make you their assistant. It's fairly normal for both people in a marriage to often ask each other if they could do something/drop something off/buy something for them while at the shops. If she was going to be near a shop that he wanted something from and he wasn't, it wouldn't be unreasonable to ask if she'd mind popping in if she had a minute and get a specific item.

Of course it's unreasonable for a grown man to ask a busy person to buy him a new toothbrush because he doesn't like the colour of his current brand new toothbrush.

Anyone who panders to that kind of babyish behaviour is nuts.
