This is so personal to your principles. Your man does not want to rock the boat. That is what he has learned to do and it works for him.
I can understand that it would hurt you that he does not stand up for you. I guess you could come up with some type of agreement - and he needs to understands how much this hurts you. He may never treat his family different. You can not change him any more than you can hold back on something you feel passionate about and you want to be validated.
It's not always important to be right - unless it compromises your principles too much because resentment will follow and the resentment will hurt the relationship.
