AIBU to be so enraged about reckless egg usage??

[Polkadotpjs]

D(debatable)H made himself and son eggs yesterday for breakfast despite my slightly worried “have you counted how many we have?” He’s just cooked 4 more for himself and son leaving youngest and me (I’m always last to be thought of anyway) with none. I wanted to bake today. Eggs last longer in a cake right?! . He’s so selfish with food. Just takes what he wants even if it’s the kids’ stuff. Never thinks to replace it or if it might be needed e.g. drinks all the milk then wonders why there isn’t any for coffee. He thinks I’m being a drama queen as he can just pop to shops. And this is why I’m stressed. I don’t want any of us going out unless we have to. And we don’t HAVE to if we eat sensibly. We had a huge row on Monday so I may still be harbouring rage about that. Tell me if any of you have selfish partners. I’m thinking about one previous OP whose OH ate all the treats and her posh biscuits.

Feel free to use this thread as a rant thread OP, your DH sounds like a complete git.

Has he got some sort of food addiction ? How many yoghurts does he eat in one go ?!
I mean I could do a few but I choose not to because I’m an adult woman not a labrador

Is he explaining to the kids why there are no yoghurts for them? Or are you doing that?

What does he think you can eat? What does he think the kids can eat? If he eats everything.

Lock him out.

The more I see these threads, the more I appreciate my DH.

YANBU, OP.

Men/boys are raised to put their needs/wants above everybody else's. This sort of behaviour is heard about much more often in men and (I think) is true the world over.

I studied development studies at university 25 years old. We learnt of a case study in farming. A development charity were working with a village in Africa with a chronic shortage of food. Traditionally the women managed the vegetable gardens and the men looked after the animals. The charity provided some higher yielding crops and taught some new farming techniques to improve food supply. They taught these lessons and dealt exclusively with the men in the village. The villagers then swapped roles, with the women looking after the animals and the men tending the vegetables. Food production increased dramatically and yet rates of malnutrition also increased. When the woman had been looking after the crops, they had also been in charge of food distribution, everybody got just about enough. Men had taken on this role, and feed themselves first and much better than before and so hunger increased.

YABU tbh. Its much healthier to have eggs for breakfast than use them in a cake anyway really.

Your update about the yoghurts though..kind of seems hes doing it on purpose to annoy everyone!

@Chillicheese123 Yes. He’s a Labrador for sure 
The more available stuff is the more he will eat, now including stuff he wouldn’t touch. I’ve hidden three eggs and made chocolate brownies for the kids with 2 as I know he won’t eat those (or will he? He wouldn’t touch my cake usually). He made himself eggs yesterday but didn’t offer anyone else. I mentioned this in a mini row about his expectation I would serve tea the instant I was off a work meeting and became available to “release” him from doing it. It was all stuff I had made and involved merely heating it up.
We had words about his and my role and I pointed out he’s capable of cooking for himself when he wants to. @KenDodd that is so interesting and yet depressing and not at all surprising. The sheer sense of entitlement seems entrenched in him and other men. Not all thank goodness.

How many times on here though do we see boys actually compared to labradors- they just need food and exercise. Compared to more complicated girls .

Exactly. And boys are excused because they’re like labradors and it’s natural for them to eat everything they come across without a thought.

Yet so many defend stereotypes and say they aren’t harmful.
