We have been having a row about a stag do DH is going to that's coming up in a few weeks time.
I work shifts (NHS) and I pointed out to him that I am rostered to work that weekend so I have told him he will have to make arrangements for childcare for DS(4) before he goes.
DH works mon-fri term-time only so my unsocial hours shifts are not usually a problem re: childcare.
He said that I knew he would be going on this stag do around this time so I should have requested those shifts off so I will now have to sort childcare as it's my fault!
I explained to him AGAIN that I am only allowed a maximum 4 requests per 4 week period and I have used up all those on the wedding weekend (5 hour drive away) and for a day when DS's nursery is closed.
Now he is saying that I should have requested the stag-do weekend off rather than the wedding weekend as we are only invited to the evening do and do I really want to go all that distance just for a night do?
I said not really but I thought that he thought it would be more important for us to be at the wedding celebration than for just him to go to the stag and not us the wedding.
He said that the stag do is more important to the men than the wedding. The wedding is more important to the women.
I said I don't understand that, it makes no sense to me!
He said "THAT'S BECAUSE YOU ARE A WOMAN"
Please help! AIBU? Or have I married a fucking Neanderthal? I am really upset :(
