A Different Person Around My Dad

My husband has become a different person from being around my dad. First off, my husband is the sweetest guy in the world when we aren't around my parents. He is always complementing me, buying me things, and treating me exactly the way every girl wishes to be treated.

My problem is his need for acceptance from my father. Usually it is the other way around and it would be the woman asking her man to adapt to her dad. But a lot of dads aren't the degrading type to women. Maybe they are I don't know. What I know is it's like my dad hates every woman but me - his daughter. He rips on my mom. He will tear down women with better jobs than him. He only tells me about my weight occasionally.

My husband, who would never degrade a woman in his life, does so when he's around my dad. It's terrible. He wants to make my dad laugh so he cracks jokes about it. I think he needs to get tough and tell my dad that's not how he really feels about women. I think my dad would respect that but he doesn't want to make waves. Tell him he's wrong here.
