23 Unbelievably Dumb Things Husbands Said

We asked members of the BuzzFeed Community to share the dumbest thing someone they know said. Soooooo many people shared stupid things their husbands said, so, of course, I compiled the funniest ones. Enjoy:

1. "My favorite dumb thing my husband said (when I was pregnant) is that he thought babies don't wear diapers when they sleep. After laughing for a bit, I told him they still pee and poo in their sleep. He said he knew that, but he thought they wore a special nightgown or something in their sleep instead. I think he thought that's what sleep sacks were for."

2. "I was planning a trip to Los Cabos in Mexico with my ex-husband (when we were married). My then-husband asked if I knew how to speak Mexican in addition to Spanish. I looked at him like, 'Did you really just say that?' Here is a guy who is incredibly smart, runs a hedge fund, and has an MBA from a top business school, and he honestly thought in Mexico they spoke Mexican. I was dumbfounded."

3. "My husband thought it was stupid that I was trying to teach our dog to shake hands because she's a girl and 'only boys shake hands.' Who did I even marry?"

4. "On our wedding night, my ex-husband asked, 'What does terminated mean?' Yup, we were 18 years old, pregnant, and I was the only one with a job."

5. "Bank debit cards were a fairly new concept. I got an overdraft notice from the bank. My ex-husband said it was no problem, we could just go to the ATM and withdraw money to deposit in our checking account. I had to explain the ATM did not just dole out free money; every transaction deducted from our account. He was stunned."

6. "My husband thought that women wear white when they are on their period because that's what they do in feminine hygiene commercials."

7. "My ex-husband saw a Tampax commercial on TV and said, 'They're advertising those when they know women are having their periods.' I had to explain that we were not all on the same schedule."

8. "In the airport, taking my (now ex) husband on a business trip to California with me, he couldn't understand why I was setting my watch back three hours. When I explained time zones to him, he argued with and laughed at me. He refused to believe me until he saw the clocks when we landed."

9. "My husband and I were discussing our neighbor, who just got diagnosed with prostate cancer, and my husband said that he should probably get his prostate examined. Then he looked at me and said, 'Hon, you should probably get your prostate checked, too!' I told him that women don't have prostates."

10. "My first husband and I went to my cousin's house to watch the first moon landing on TV. On the way home, he asked me if I thought we would ever see a man land on the sun."

11. "My ex-husband asked how the rice multiplies in the pot when it cooks. He thought it multiplied."

12. "My husband claimed he could just open the window to 'dust' his office."

13. "When my husband and I were trying to have a baby, I told him, 'I got my period, but we'll keep trying.' He said, 'How do you know you're not pregnant? Did you take a test?'"

14. "I once told my husband I was going to make banana bread. He looked at me completely confused and asked how that was possible since we didn't have any bread. He thought that pieces of bread went into the batter."

15. "My husband didn't know that butterflies and moths are caterpillars transformed."

16. "My husband got in a fight with Alexa because she would not answer his question. The question? 'Alexa, who is the governor of your state?' Without telling her which state. Poor Alexa was so confused!"

17. "My husband at the time, now ex, was locked inside the car. Yes, you read that correctly, INSIDE. I had to hit the unlock on the key fob because he couldn't figure out how to get out. I kid you not, this actually happened."

18. "When my husband saw a bumper sticker that said 'FREE TIBET,' he asked, 'What's a tibet?'"

19. "My ex-husband asked me what the capital of Chicago was."

21. "My husband and I rented a convertible while on vacation in Hawaii. He was in a hurry, but I told him we had to wait a little while because I had to put sunscreen on the kids. He said not to bother because once in the car, we would be moving."

22. "My 49-year-old husband has complained multiple times about pain he was having in his 'rotary cup.' He's essentially a borderline bodybuilder; he should know it's actually a 'rotator cuff.'"

23. And finally, "My husband pronounces the S in Illinois."
