Please settle an argument. Just been sent this by my husband who thinks this is funny and that I'm being over sensitive. Thoughts please?

Nice. Does your DH normal laugh at this kind of 'humour'?

Nimbostratus100 · 03/03/2023 18:24

That is horrible

MrMarkham · 03/03/2023 18:24

It's not funny. At all.

Kangarude · 03/03/2023 18:26

What is there to argue about? Obviously he's a dick

ChickenDhansak82 · 03/03/2023 18:26

I laughed! It's kinda funny! 🤣🤣🤣

I wouldn't be offended and it wouldn't bother me.

EVHead · 03/03/2023 18:27

Crude and unfunny.

Hoppinggreen · 03/03/2023 18:27

Not funny just misogynistic

7Worfs · 03/03/2023 18:28

It’s not overly funny, because it’s old humour tropes.
It’s not offensive either.
It’s meh, I’d keep scrolling without thinking twice about it.

Stressyfab · 03/03/2023 18:28

Yikes

JupiterFortified · 03/03/2023 18:29

I think it’s funny. If you don’t though that’s fine: people are entitled to have a different sense of humour to yours.

Sweetmotherofallthatisholyabov · 03/03/2023 18:29

That's disgusting. It's not funny if some people actually believe it to be true.

HermioneWeasley · 03/03/2023 18:30

Repulsive

AldiorLidl · 03/03/2023 18:30

Something I'd imagine Nigel Farage would find hilarious, really, really grim.

Dacadactyl · 03/03/2023 18:31

I laughed at most of them, except the last 4, which I thought were unnecessary (and I'm thin myself). Didn't like the use of c* either.

HermioneWeasley · 03/03/2023 18:31

The fact that 42% of responders think that’s funny or remotely acceptable explains a lot about why women and girls are treated as they are

Deeply misogynistic. Does he have form for this kind of stuff OP?

Sweetmotherofallthatisholyabov · 03/03/2023 18:32

Actually upon reflection I like the knight in shining armour and pubbing. Enjoys eating out would have been better as can't cook. I think you could make it funny and inoffensive but whoever wrote it is looking for cheap laughs from the choir and to offend everyone else who "can't take a joke"

DoAWheelie · 03/03/2023 18:33

I really though we were moving on from the "wife bad" boomer humour bullshit.

YANBU. Do you find he is misogynistic in other ways too?

Calling women greedy lazy fat cunts is not offensive?

WTF is wrong with you?

MyOldFriendTime · 03/03/2023 18:34

Oh God, I laughed too 🤭

Behold the mother of one of these horrible shits that call themselves men.

Pigletnotatwiglet · 03/03/2023 18:36

I laughed. Shoot me.

Snoopinator · 03/03/2023 18:36

Your husband is an arsehole.

I think its funny too ... I guarantee if there was a bloke equivalent the offended ones would laugh and say DH had no humour if it was a reverse.

Undermyumberellaellaella · 03/03/2023 18:37

It's not hilarious but I laughed. Everyone can find different things funny. Not sure what there was to argue about.
