Dear Maninder, I think many of us Indian women go through this scenario, because most men in our culture are taught that it is good to disrespect your in-laws and treat your wife like this, as it shows what a man you are..so so wrong! I am sure you have been a very polite and nice person till now, but for the sake of your parents and also for your own respect, you have to put a stop to this. tell your husband in very firm voice that he has to immediately stop being disrespectful towards your parents. if he does not listen and disrespects them, dont shy away from repeating it again in front of everyone. say something such as, ''did your parents never teach you that by disrespecting others you are actually reducing respect for your own self?' or, 'i can see that i cannot expect any better from you. you really are ruining your own respect yourself.' it is only when you start humiliating him in front of others the way he does to you and your parents, will he understand. sorry, but most Indian men only realize this way. also, you do not permission from him or anyone to meet your in-laws, and make it very clear. be strong woman....all will be fine.
