Dear Abby: Father-in-Law’s Assaultive Behavior Has Crossed the Line

Client felt embarrassed when hairstylist wore a nearly nude swimsuit while hosting dinner and decided to decline future invitations, advised by an advice columnist.

  • Recently, the unidentified male client accepted an invitation to an evening meal at his longtime hairstylist's home after three years of patronage but decided never to return, calling it odd and disrespectful.
  • The hairstylist wore an outfit she described as a `swimsuit`, which the client described as a near-barest thong and bra; she explained a patch on her hip forced this choice, after earlier appointment attire of sweatpants and sweatshirt.
  • She and her son prepared the meal while family members were present, she brought him his plate, then served her parents, appearing comfortable and unaware of his reaction.
  • The client felt embarrassed and insulted by her attire, leaving him uncertain whether to continue social contact beyond appointments he has every two weeks.
  • Dear Abby recommended he politely refuse future dinner invitations and, if asked, honestly say he felt embarrassed the hairstylist wasn't more covered up.
