Why do husbands act different in presence of their family?

Re: Why do husbands act different in presence of their family?

what i meant as coward and spineless are those men that don’t exactly stand up for their wives infront of their families. i am not talking about holding hands. but there are plenty of men out there that don’t stand up for their wives even when his family says something rude to her or about her. this has happend with me in my previous relationship so i can very well relate to this.
I have even seen when a guy is too nice to his wife and helps her out, he gets labelled ‘joru ka ghulam’ by his family.
so no it’s not laughable when someone is called spineless and coward for not standing up for his wife infront of this family.
If the OP is talking about holding hands or intimacy related behavior, then i am afraid i misunderstood the post.
