I went out for dinner last night with a bunch of my husbands work colleagues who I’ve not met before. We all got on great but I could tell there was a weird vibe between me and them.

Do you want to know why?

My job is a sexual health advisor.

Turns out when asked what I do he’s been telling people I’m a sex worker.

He actually thought that’s what sex worker meant. Thankfully I’ve put everyone straight and the weird tension eased. But omg what a bloody idiot.

Aibu to think he wins the stupid man award?

Oh god that's so funny Grin glad you set everyone straight OP.

How long did it take before you found out he'd told them you were a sex worker?

This reminds me of a friend who's little brother told their teacher that their dad was an arms dealer. He sold mechanical arms for factory machinery.

I don't suppose he's young-looking for his age and happens to work in a finance collection capacity on behalf of landlords, does he....?

Hahahahaahahahaahaha
Sorry but that's hilarious, it sounds like one of those "describe what you do badly" questions.

Dh used to be completely adamant that you could use dishwasher tablets in the washing machine and visa versa. It was only when a load came out with white powder all over he realised he couldn't...

He is very young looking but no, not smart enough to do a job like that evidently 🤣

My son told his entire school at assembly that I make adult movies.

I'm a boring marketing manager who sometimes makes boring videos.

That was fun.

One of them had mentioned that their daughter was starting to ask questions about sex, and they were unsure how to approach it.

“oh, ask Mrs Stupid, she’s a sex worker.” says Mr Stupid.
“wtf did you just say?!”

Que all the awkward faces then the laughing then the blushing of Mr Stupid as I explained my ACTUAL job and why he’s an idiot and should never speak to anyone again.
