To have answered this question from DH truthfully?

Watching TV and a character mentioned making a sex tape with a partner. DH asked if I’d ever done that. I said yes, years ago, as a young woman, and that I’d been the only person with access to the video which is long since deleted. He’s now gone off in a nuclear huff using phrases I’m very pissed off about such as “I thought you were better than that.”

Was I being unreasonable to have answered truthfully? He’s done lots of things in his past that I disagree with (and had far more sex with far more partners than me!) and this feels like a double standard!!

But curious that you'd still be pissed off if your partner had made a sex tape pre your relationship?... Why is that?

I feel a bit silly for having to type this out! ... but because people would be able to see your partner naked online

Is that not allowed then?

CavalierApproach · 06/12/2022 23:04

God @Keyansier, stop digging

All that 'probably' and 'very likely' BS, based on this idea you absolutely made up in your own head that OP's ex ever had a copy of the tape to start with, even though she had already made it very clear that he did not.

And then later, claiming 'all I said was that there was a possibility' -- I hate to tell you, but people can still see (a) what you previously said, and (b) that it was nonsense

Men view things like this differently to women.

I suppose your husband sees it as putting yourself in a vulnerable position and sexualising yourself for somebody that isn’t you husband which is well, not classy.

Is it 1930?

What? 😂😂

And I'm a he, btw. He/Him/His/His Highness aka all that bollocks (just my opinion).

That explains your insistence that you are correct despite op literally stating it couldn't have happened. I guess you know better though 🙄

@Keyansier it is perfectly obvious you are a bloke. When you eventually get a girlfriend, please be kind to her and less judgmental. Good luck

It is completely and glaringly obvious @Keyansier is a bloke. And it shines through in every bloody woman-hating word.

I rarely note posters' names but that one I know.

Sheer bobbins.

It is very likely that your sex tape is on the internet for anyone to see. I think someone has the right to be upset by that.

I've made a ton of sex tapes! If the likelihood is that everyone's sex tape is online, let's hope I start getting some royalties soon 🤞

Stop being goady.

Of course it's allowed. I would just not personally like it from a partner of mine.

Keyansier · 06/12/2022 22:50

Yes, but people are getting clearly offended and I don't really get why tbh.

I don't think you understand the difference between offended and exasperated.

CavalierApproach · 06/12/2022 23:07

Nowhereelsetogo90 · 06/12/2022 22:54

It is 100% not online! No opportunity and a long time ago!

Good to know IANBU! He’s apologised for his immediate reaction - we usually get on very well and I’ve never heard him comment anything like this before so I’m still fairly raging!

I’ve said very sternly and clearly that in future he’s not to ask questions if the answer could be one which he won’t like!

Good result, glad he's apologized

Riri24 · 06/12/2022 23:08

Yanbu. He has no right whatsoever to be angry about something that happened before you even knew him. It's judgemental and a bit pathetic really.

I don't hate women??? Why would you think that? That is quite confusing, as I don't hate women at all, and I really hate misogynists, actually.

You've jumped the shark now, mate.

Olivetreebutter · 06/12/2022 23:09

There is a famous saying "don't ask questions you don't want the answer to" that your DH could have done with learning before tonight.
He's being an idiot.

Nope, not goady at all.
It was an absolutely reasonable question seeing as how you were so vocal on the subject. Don't be trying to deflect back what you tried to put on to OP. When someone else shines a light on it mate Smile

It's clear i am upsetting some people on here, I did not mean to, I will not respond to this thread anymore, please refrain from tagging my username.

@Sodonewiththisshit

Of course not, women can make any decisions they please. But, their are consequences to all decisions. Women are allowed to have standards so why not men?

Interviewnamechange · 06/12/2022 23:18

No need to tell us you're a him, it's well obvious to any woman reading your posts!

Will you please stop saying that people are upset or offended. Nobody is. We are calling out your bullshit and you don't like it.

Ugh. Way to go shaming women for having sex.

Nope, not upsetting anyone and perfectly entitled to your own opinion. But you did have a dig or two at the OP and then quickly backtracked. Your opinion is of course your own... But don't then try to tell others they cannot tag your username to respond to comments you made that they may also disagree with. The open right to comment is very much a two way street. You can't then dictate who may respond to your own (as you did post em). Xmas Hmm

@butterfliedtwo

I didn’t shame women for having sex. I just pointed out a possible opinion her husband might have.
