NTA. Your husband might be better than most, but please consider exactly how the low the bar is right now. Just because he's slightly above the bar doesn't mean he's out of the hole it's in. He clearly has lingering issues that he needs to deal with in regards to menstruation. Also, while step parents can be every bit as valid as bio parents, this is still your son. You were already raising him and explaining menstruation to him before your husband arrived. You should not be (read: are not) required to change your parenting style now. 👍
