Hi... Just wondering if I'm the one being unreasonable here or not...
My boyfriend's living room is decorated with posters of naked women. We spend the majority of time in this room together and I've told him that these posters make me feel extremely uncomfortable. I think they're gross, they crush my self-esteem and they're just damn right offensive. We've been together 7 months now and he still won't take them down because he sees them as his property and how dare I tell him what to do with it. They're really starting to get to me and so is his total disregard for my feelings. I'm tempted to take them down myself but I half expect him to break up with me over it. I've told him how I feel, not sure what else I can do. He makes me sound like I'm this mad feminist and that I'm totally in the wrong but surely most women would feel uncomfortable?
