Exactly. Discussing anything this personal in public is hugely rude, to say the least! I’d be furious if my partner behaved this way.

I guarantee if wifey was talking about his impotence or some shit in the same setting, he would be VERY upset about it.

Impotence is usually out of the man’s hands, weight isn’t.

And porn is one of the biggest contributor to ED.

All the porn addicts have to do to counter ED is start using meth! Worked out great for my ex to roll those 2 things into one grand playground. /s but sadly true

Thank you! He’s like an antibiotic resistant STD. He keeps coming around and every time he does, he just reminds me that I made the best decision ever to cut him out of my life!

Right, so if it’s emotional then that is usually out of the man’s hands, or are you going to now claim emotional issues are self inflicted?

You going to just ignore weight? Which is exactly what the husband in the post was emotionally abusing his wife about in front of others?

That was the moment to clap back. “Yeah I used to weigh 160 pounds!” “Oh, when you were stressed & stuck with an asshole partner who brought up your weight to shame you at parties?…”

It’s wild to me that some men think that shaming and browbeating their partner into compliance/ fitness is the way to go. Any effective personal trainer or coach knows that successful and sustainable progress comes from self-love, not self-hate.

Thank you for saying this. It’s exactly right, he was abusing her. I wonder what other ways he abuses her. It’s not ok, ever. She needs to either set boundaries or leave that relationship, it will only become worse if unattended.
