AIBU to be fuming about period "joke"

[Polkadot1974]

I’m likely answering this myself by admitting I’m feeling intolerant today
DH not listening to me is particularly annoying today. He’s just wandered in with jam sandwich, no plate, spilling crumbs (always tells kids off for this) then when I mention his inconsistency he wobbled hiis belly at me (meaning my belly is fat) and said “it’s a jam sandwich. How ironic”
Jam being a delightful reference to periods.
I’m ok to eat chocolate and rage inwardly right? Won’t be making his tea now

Ewww that’s disgusting!

What?

You could say "Bloody twat. How ironic."

How is jam a reference to periods

I would find that repulsive to be honest. Is he always so grim?

Are you annoyed about the crumbs or the period reference?

No. Not always so grim at all but it’s foul right? He’s very embarrassed about bodily functions and very prudish so this is a weird and vile thing to say to me. I’ve already used the bloody twat line but didn’t pick up on it as a very clever line at the time. Arse.

I’m annoyed about the period more than crumbs!

He sounds like a 12 year old boy. What exactly do you see in this twat?

He sounds horrible.

He actually doesn’t sound very nice at all.

Just shove the jam sandwich up his arse. See how funny he thinks it is then.

Apology just received
He’s ashamed now he thinks about it.
Does everyone have this once in a while when the partner says something very odd and very horrible?

Eugh. What a horrible thing to say to his wife. I'm not surprised you're upset.

This wouldn't bother me at all, but every relationship is different.

Glad he's apologised.

I’ve never heard of jam and periods being referenced together. Not sure how the wobbly belly fat fits into periods either.

OohMavis you’re right - it’s not enough to be a red flag to my relationship but just bloody annoying. What a clot...
See if I have time I can get the “jokes” in myself...

Maybe I'm being extraordinarily thick but I don't get it....

it wouldnt bother me at all but i would find it very odd. its almost laughable how bizarre it is. So the "Joke" wouldnt bother me and i would probably laugh out of pure "what the fuck". But the crumbs I would have made him hoover and told him to go get a plate.

I have read your OP several times and still can't see where you get periods from a jam sandwich

I don't even get it, jam is nothing to do or like periods. Not a very clever joke.

he wobbled his belly at me (meaning my belly is fat)

This would upset me more than the jam joke tbh

Heard it years ago in school the lads used to call sanitary towels Jam Butty's for everyone saying they can't make a connection to periods, horrible reference
Glad he's apologised op

God. The more I read these threads the more I like MY husband 😆

The reference comes from the term "jam rag", which referred to the rags women used back in the day before sanitary towels were available/affordable.
