friend's husband is a misogynist cunt

[Leafcushionswhy]

Bumped into friend and her H yesterday. I've had babies at the same time as her so we're close and we see them frequently and live close so we bump into them a lot.

Got the following email from her H this morning:

Nice to see you yesterday. I just wanted to say congratulations on losing your baby weight. You look great - i was impressed. I have told (friend) she needs to exercise more post (DC1) and (DC2) as you know she naturally puts on weight at the best of times but she used the pregnancies to eat whatever she liked. Typical her.

What a patronising shithead. This is everything wrong with men. Do women go around saying "congrats on trying really hard with your small dick. I know it's naturally small but you've had the sense to know you can mitigate some of that by pumping a bit harder." I am boiling with all sorts of replies. What would you say?

I had a friend's husband try to hit on me. Fuckwit! And I wasn't the only one. To my shame, I never had the nerve to tell friend. I don't know what planet they are living on that, if they want an affair, they look among their wives' friends.

I once had a friend's "D"H slap me - really hard - on the arse. It was def a sexual thing. I was MORTIFIED. And I'm the fat pig, and she's gorgeous and slim. And I was so horrified and mortified that I never said a word. And I hate, hate, hate that I never called him out (I think I said "oy!" in an irritable tone), never told her, never told my DH. So I LOVE the suggested replies.

Please don't do nothing. I feel cheapened that I did nothing, and I hadn't done anything!

Some men are utter cunts!

Funny how some posters reply and then as soon as someone implies this is not true they start comenting along the vein of they know it's made up .

It's good that you are going to challenge him on this op. I would tell his dw face to face though and offer to show her the email.

I had a similar email from a friends husband, we too were all close and back then there was no fb for group event invites. He emailed me when I was ill, I'd lost two stone and was very underweight. He felt the need to praise me and suggest I should help his wife and come over to support her. He then made it very clear this would just be a cover for him wanting to see me. I was 20 and firey at the time, I told him I was disgusted by his comments and would show his wife unless he backed off and was honest with her (I was not the first or last he emailed). She then cut me off. I was naive and didn't realise he'd got in their first and painted me as an attempted husband stealer.

Just popping in with a polite request to knock it on the head with the troll hunting, please!

Look, we can never know if anything that's posted here is Completely And Utterly True. But we have Talk Guidelines which are pretty clear about our rules on troll hunting. If you have doubts about a thread or a poster, just report them to us so we can have a look behind the scenes.

Thank you kindly.

The fact you want to share with your DH means that you feel quite threatened by this email (I totally understand given that you are socially quiet - he has picked on you because he knows this). Good luck.

I'd reply and ask if there is some text missing, as you can't see any point to his mail

Whilst Yorick has written a brilliantly hilarious reply, I don't think that bringing talk of penises into it is going to be at all helpful. MotherofDaemons has written the perfect reply and that is absolutely what I would send, cc-ing in your own dh.
