maybe you will cut him a bit of slack since (1) he attended with you; (2) it was clearly your idea alone; and (3) he will not be able to breast feed ... those instructions will not change that

Not only that, don't you think it's just rude? The midwife taking the class was really quite shocked. I mean, if you're not interested, don't come. But don't be so rude that you sit there and blatantly read a book in front of a woman who is spending her time trying to teach you about the process in which your child is going to be born.
the midwife did not alter the way she presented because of his behavior, so he did not negatively inflict himself; i think that causes him not to have been "rude". indifferent, certainly ... rude, no

And all the other guys in the class can work it out - I'm sure they're your everyday average guy. They were all so angry about it - you could tell by the way they were looking at him. There's only 12 to a class.
take this to the bank. they were miffed because he showed the other 5 guys who the big dawg in the room was ... it wasn't them because they were doing what the wife unit expected. they were especially miffed at themselves for not having the gonads to do what Gary did

Honestly, from everything you've written here I cannot imagine you doing such a thing, and being so disrespectful not only to your wife, but to the person running the class.
i wish all 3 of you the best, but lighten up. you are making much too much of this
