Do you live in a RV?
It's too blurry to be sure, but that looks like a threaded fitting at the wall. If that's the case, shut off the water and spin that contraption of a valve off and replace it with a valve with a normal thread fitting on the hose side. Attach the hose, secure both sides, and turn the water and then valve on. You and your assumed female companion should both start dating men. |
I screwed up one of those recently. Shut off valve broke, tried removing it, and ended up kinking the copper line under the house. None of my friends and I could fit around the duct under the house to fix it. Called a plumber, told him to bring a tiny guy, and he did. Two hours and $280 later, the copper line was replaced.

No, I live in a two-story house. This is the upstairs bathroom.
Yeah, I think I get it now. Unlike the kitchen faucet where I was able to easily re-attach the new supply line to the existing stop-valve, I'm going to have to replace the stop valve at the wall. |

I'm told a lot of 80's porn begins this way. Let me guess, you have a moving truck and need to run to Lowes in the next town over....and by Lowes, I mean the closet to work the camera.... Might as well fix this up while we're there. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/U9kfsw3BxP8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

It's all but leaking at the wall connection anyways. Just don't **** up that wall fitting or the odds of the plumber plumbing your, still assumed female, significant other increases drastically when you're forced to have him come clean up your mess. |
I've never seen a shutoff valve with flex permanently attached to it, wtf kind of shit is that?

You can't unscrew the valve and then pull the nut off?

The nut that's there is probably held on by a compression ring
That whole valve body should unscrew out of that nut. Then you can try to screw in a new style valve body with a 3/8 compression outlet Or If it leaks , pull the nut off with a compression nut puller |

Take some Clorox and see if it's just a surface stain. I've seen much worse...it doesn't look like a leak imo |
