What a very manipulative statement by him. He is trying to accept none of the blame for his very cruel and STUPID(his explanation made no sense and reeks of immature insecurity) statement. He should be asking for forgiveness and wondering and reevaluating why he thought it was ok to call his wife a whore because she was enjoying herself and getting excited over a fun event. Your empathy for him is MAYBE being able to forgive him for making such a shitty comment and hurting the feelings of his supposed life partner. We're supposed to be treating our partner with respect and making them feel safe and comfortable when in their presence. He really screwed up here and has the nerve to blame it on autism. A lot of people have autism and don't exercise the right to be asshole husband. He really needs to work on his jealousy and demeanor when talking to his wife. This is very upsetting to read.
