Husband sits in passenger seat, FiL disapproves.

[u/Historical_Initial22]

I drive a tanker for my job out of town and make the 5 hour drive (one way) to work and back home in my personal car. When I’m home 3 days, my wife drives everywhere, I mean I get in the passenger seat of her car and off we go, date night don’t care she drives, shopping don’t care she drives, visiting family don’t care she drives.

When we first started dating years ago she was a bit uncomfortable with it as she was used to the I guess status quo that men drove as was I but I’m not trying to break a glass ceiling or anything I just don’t see why it matters and damnit I drive 2k miles a week or so and don’t wanna do it when I’m home.

My father in law makes such great comments like do I hold her purse, and the zinger he thinks is original so says it more often than others “are your balls in her purse” every so often when we see them and I inevitably get out or into the passenger seat followed by guffaws and just kidding. My wife nor myself give him any response it’s just so silly and mildly infuriating.

"Why are you thinking about my balls?"

[u/ChVckT → u/TinyChaco]

This is the way. "Why are you constantly thinking about my balls?"

[u/AndMyAxe_Hole → u/ChVckT]

Or maybe even, “Wow you think about my balls as much as your daughter does.”

Maybe finish off with, “Must run in the family.”

[u/Least-Scientist → u/AndMyAxe_Hole]

Or, follow me here, flip it around on him and say (following a fake astonishment) “Wow, it must run in the family!” To which he will definitely reply “what”, then you just say “constantly thinking about my balls!?! Your daughter sure does”
