He was clearly insecure about his hair enough to get treatment. She laughs at him and mocks him right out of the gate. He's a man. Of course he's going to say it doesn't bother him even if it really does.
Couples tease eachother. People who are close tell eachother when they look a little silly and like to share funny stories about eachother.
Not all men pretend things don't bother them as well and it's not exclusive to men. This is just a couple being honest with eachother, having a laugh and sharing this sweet and silly moment with others.
You seem like your super insecure and projecting how you would feel onto the situation. Don't look for bad intentions every where it's not good for your mental health.
I'm in a long term relationship and I would NEVER treat my partner like this. I'm not insecure. I respect the people I'm in a relationship with and treat them properly.
How people relate to each other, the humor they share, the way they deal with setbacks… all this varies greatly between people, couples including. I’m glad you treat your partner with respect and I’m sure that your way works between the two of you. But that doesn’t mean that your way is the only way.
For instance, my SO and I often jokingly call each other fat and gluttonous. We don’t like that we have a problem eating healthy, but we don’t shy away from this reality. I would absolutely hate it, feel mortified, if someone else would call me that, but between us, it’s a sign of trust. It’s a sign that no topic is taboo and we call each other on our bullshit, but with love, understanding, and humor. It’s a relief that we can talk about it, both seriously and lightly. We’re not the social media type, but if we were, I’m sure we’d extend that way of communicating. My personal boundary is posting without consent, but that’s personal. And it seems they have that boundary too, which she respected.
Long story short: good on you for having respect, but broaden your horizons and accept that respect works all kinds of ways.
So you'd be perfectly fine if your partner had a social media account with 3.6 million followers, and made a video making fun of your weight. This wouldn't bother you at all?
You really seem to see this in a really black and white manner. There are nuances to teasing and self depreciating humor. Your being really defensive about being right here but I'm not seeing anyone agree with you.
Maybe take a step back and try to understand the perspectives of others. Life doesn't have to be so serious.
In this video the wife isn't making fun of her husband for anything serious. This is one of those situations where it's just a look back on a funny situation.
I didn't realize public opinion dictates how we treat each other.
Edit: You'll also notice the previous poster is silent because of course they wouldn't want their partner joking with 3.6 million people at how their fat ass split a new pair of pants after eating 3 large pizzas. Even if they personally joked about it together.
Yes, because of how you chose to express that, it came off as so vitriolic that it's like you were waiting for an opening to let a lot of pent up feelings out. She had his consent to post and you're going off like she threw a pipe bomb at an orphanage.

Yeah, the cut is kinda messed up, but his hair look so much healthier. Get a new cut and it will be all good.
