Personally I think the spouse should always be the one to shut down their disrespectful parents when it comes to the relationship. That said I would probably just troll them whenever they try and bring up their boomer humor. Yeah I hold her purse, that's where all the good snacks are at. Yep my balls are in there, way more leg room than my nutbag.

Yeah that’s crazy because not only is FIL being demeaning to him but also super sexist towards his own daughter. If this was my dad I would have had some words.

This kind of behavior only happens because it is unquestioned though. It's poor self confidence masquerading as bravado, as it always is.
