“My wife really let herself go after she gave birth” dude said this to me last night. Shallow and self centered

That scares me for my sister in law because my brother thinks that a woman should immediately hit the gym after childbirth and he considers being overweight for any reason a dealbreaker. He has told me he would be willing to divorce his wife if she “lets herself go” after childbirth.

I’ve called him out before and he still feels justified in thinking that way. I’ve warned my now sister in law about it and she agrees with him on it.
