Thanks for your thoughts. I have older threads about the prior abuse in our marriage.

I am not one to let something that is sexist slide. I agree with picking your battles, but sexism is something I am strongly against, being an avid feminist myself.

He took the video down from his Facebook page as soon as I said it was sexist.
