I don't mean to be an alarmist, but what your husband is saying to you is unacceptable. You absolutely need to confront him about it, tell him it is unacceptable, and if he doesn't understand why then he has a problem, not you.

If they were just slips from him then perhaps it's something he can work on. Controlling his speech, etc. But if it's something you think he believes then you have a lot of work to do!

One other thing to note. It isn't desirable to live in a relationship like that and "try and stop feeling like a loser". He needs to be a whole lot more respectful, and that's all there is to it.

Like a woman who is abused wondering how she can be a better wife so that her husband doesn't get mad.

take care
