"not very lady like"

[Gifgaf]

I've always thought of myself as quite feminine but I am not exactly a soft speaker all the time and with my DH we have unique humour with each other and I occasionally swear.

However, for a while now my DH keeps making references at me that I am not speaking "very lady like". I never thought of it that deep before but now it's starting to make me feel insecure and I don't want to be that woman who swears a lot and have worked to stop but I just have a certain kind of personality and it's who I am.

Don't really know how to act anymore ...

I swear quite a lot.

Someone once said to me that it wasn't very ladylike.

My speech to them for the next two minutes contained every swear word I could think of just to make the point.

I forget exactly what I said but I think it went somewhere along the lines of "I am not a fucking lady and don't you bloody dare to fucking call me one again ever you cunt.

I think I missed a few.

They never said that again.

(Then there was the time I put twenty quid in the swear jar at work and said oh, that covers me for the next week!)

He’s either going through a mid life crisis or had his head turned, best to ignore him for a while, no attention, he’ll hopefully get bored.
Surely he wants a reaction?
Prob saying he’s denied sex and nagged to do housework, stupid man, he’s also a bad role model to your children too

Just tell him to go and get stood on.

You are good enough just as you are.........and if you feel you need to change, you will do so on your own terms.

Why is your first reaction to change rather than challenge? That's odd.

Either he's joking or he's putting you down. You know which it is. Why is he doing that? He's not being very nice is he...
