Hi, 103531,
You are an adult. Adults don't have to explain their reasons for anything...but they often don't know that.
However, it would be a good idea for you and your husband to talk together about how you both feel about this.
It could even be that one of you thinks such behaviour is ridiculous, and not worth 'doing anything' about.
I don't know how either of you feels about it, but it would be nice if you two could talk it over and decide on a united, moderate course.
The most important, I think, is that you understand each other, and show that to your partner.
If one or both of you feels very upset, the less said in group situations the better, I believe.
Good luck!
One day the whole situation will fade in importance.
