How can he think this is okay

"Why do you have to keep going on about it? Just accept that I don't listen to you, no men listen, just accept that I don't listen to you."

That's a direct quote from a "conversation" I just had with DH. AIBU to think he's a complete arsehole?

backstory this is following several conversations we've had where I've had to retell him such and such about 5 times today. And every day.

Its not okay and if it was me, i would be divorced by the end of 2017.
he cares not, so its time to bail.
sorry.

He throws the divorce comments out because he wants to distract you from whatever conversation you are having at the time. If you are worrying about divorce, you won't nag him to change. It's like his go to phrase for ending the argument. I'd definitely call him on it, he sounds horrible.

What an arrogant, dismissive thing to say?
You know he's subtly (or not so subtly), undermining you right?
What he's saying is that what you say doesn't matter, isn't valued, isn't important so basically just subjugate yourself, stifle your voice and don't say anything disagreeable. And the fact that he's using the whole male sex to justify and back up his derisive and patronising comment is lazy, ridiculous and delusional.
Yuk...disrespectful
