My dad doesn't respect women and so he treats me like an idiot?

[Anonymous]

4 wives, divorced and gone, im his only child (that he talks to), he's manipulative and treats me like an idiot as i try to be the adult in the house, he argues in circles until im exhausted and he claims victory, how to deal?

Oh my God, I feel you!!!
My dad loves me though and always hugs me and everything. But he's kind of sexist and i'm pretty sure he thinks i'm more stupid than my twin brother. He also makes a joke about almost everything I say and teases me.
Every time i'm driving somewhere with my dad, and there's a bad driver, he's always like "wow I bet you thats a woman, son" to my brother and i'll just be in the car like: globetrottergirls.com/.../...middle-fingers-up.jpg
Don't worry, I mean I know its easier said than done, but push it off your shoulder. If your dad is that type of person, he'll probably like getting that sort of attention from you, and to really prove you're the adult and you're mature, ignore it. Its the most mature thing you can do. You'll move out at one point anyways.

Don't engage with him at all. Speak when spoken to and keep your responses bland. Count the minutes until you can leave.

Ask him if being closed off is working out for him. Ask him if his heart is content to be alone. Ask him if never letting a woman in far enough to touch him is how he wants to live.

He is using a womanizing, misogynist facade to keep women at arm's length. Tell him if he continues this way of living he will die lonely and alone, never touched by the feminine beauty that is a caring, loving woman.

Then give him a hug and let him think about that for a while.

I'm sorry you have to put up with that, but I'd suggest just ignoring his arguments, insults, and thoughts on you unless they lead to far worse things like physical abuse or so. Also get some friends you can talk to about the whole thing.

You need to walk away when your dad wants to argue or be idiot
and when he see's it that will make him upset / mad more than anything
don't stay where he is to argue cause that gets you no where.

There's not much you can do until you move out of the house, unless you would rather be in a foster home.
