Last night DH called me a 'tramp'

Because when he got home at 8.30pm (DC's were long since bathed and asleep) I was in the bath having a glass of wine, and had already had another whilst watching t.v.
It resulted in a big arguement. He said a mother shouldn't drink at home, and especially not alone. I asked how 'trampish' he considers himself when he goes and sits in the pub alone for a couple of pints with a book after work.
So I am just wondering about your drinking habits, and your DH's, and your opinions please.

Since having dd i don't drink alot, dh has my share infact he always offers me wine but I don't even drink the first glass he's poured (a waste I know!) tomorrow I will be partaking in some champs as dh has been away since Wed and is hopefully getting some duty free. For me personally I would perhaps have one or two if i was alone knowing that dh was coming home that night so I can't see the problem, would be very very annoyed if he called me a tramp (infact he wouldn't dare, he hates fighting and he knows I would win) clip him round the ear

i don't drink at home at all and dont like the idea of drinking alone but i am only a social drinker anyway.

i think your partner was out of order in the way he approached the subject
