I am probably being a bit fragile but for background- my husband walked out of his job two years ago, has not worked since due to depression. Over that time I have worked really hard to keep everything together and manage on our limited budget. Over at in-laws today and my M-I-L expresses some sympathy for me having to work next week while child and husband off. To which my F-I-L says 'Ha! Well, that's feminism for you. Make them all work on, that's equality!' which he seemed to think was hilarious. I am quite gutted - it feels like a bit of a smack in the face. And I never have any sort of witty comeback or even ready response 
So AIBU to want some appreciation for keeping their son afloat too?
