My husband asked me to change my shorts to leggings because men were in the house working!!!!!

[bananamuffin89]

I was wearing shorts... we had men in the house doing work and my husband asked me if I was changing into leggings??
He said they would be 'looking at my hole'
What the helllllllll!!

I didn't change and we haven't mentioned it.

'hole' as in your bum
i know 🙈
the hole bit isnt the bit bothering me though, its the comment in general. there's just no need, who cares what a woman is wearing!

I'm assuming he's Irish?

If this is real then I honestly don’t know why you didn’t finish it there and then.

Its absolutely unacceptable to tell anyone what to wear especially a grown adult.

I would be looking very closely at other behaviours you’ve not recognised as red flags as this is pretty extreme.

Were you doing yoga in a provocative fashion in front of these men ? Washing a car in front of them with lots of bubbles and a big slushy sponge?. I admire your restraint in your laid back response. I suppose it could be seen as a back handed compliment, if we were living in the 50s

Let me get this straight. He wants you to cover yourself up because he doesn't want other men looking at you?

Oh dear.

That's the start of a very slippery slope if ever there was one.

Your husband is obviously talking out of the hole in his arse, is it the 1800s? Best remind him to pick up the smelling salts on his way out

Why? I’m Irish and I don’t get this.

Your husband is weird as leggings can show a lot.

And you are better off in shorts as the men would know not to look.

(Well that's what I've been told anyway.)

In some parts of Ireland hole means arse .

Oh i am loving these replies. 😅

Tell me all - what would your reply be to this if it were said to you?

Where they Crotchless shorts? 🤣

I'd have put shorter shorts on

Don’t understand the hole reference. Is your arsehole half way down your leg?

He needs to get a grip
You need to get rid

I don't like the language he used but I will admit, I would not wear shorts or a short skirt if I had workmen in. Just incase they got the wrong end of the stick. X

I'm assuming he's irish. Hole/hoop/arse used interchangeably.

Stupid thing for him to say. Wear what you want.

I think my response would’ve been a slow head shake accompanied by a pithy remark.

or so as not to humiliate him in from of his big butch men mates I’d write him a post-it note saying “Fuck you. Strong letter follows”

Your husband is a neanderthal and nothing about this is funny.

ha at Bingebitch great answer. Tell him to feck off and ask him to change his attitude. As someone else said are we in Afghanistan or the 1800's...horrible expression he used also.

I don't understand why you're crying with laughter.

Your husband is being weird, jealous, controlling, and misogynistic. It's not exactly a fucking laugh riot.

im laughing at some peoples replies because they did actually make me laugh out loud

👏👏😂😂

I’m having difficulty understanding some of your responses here, OP. Do you think this is funny? Did you post it thinking we’d all find it funny? As it’s really not.

How did you respond to your husband? Does he often speak to you like this? If so, are you alright with it?

is it jealousy? or insecurity

Ask him why he said it. It's too loaded a comment just to brush over. Unless you often brush over issues, in your relationship? And then it's a different matter.

Are these shorts you wear outside or are they just for the 'bedroom'. I second the response to exchange them for shorter shorts, maybe a pair with a hole in them
