A private conversation (apart from you lugging in) is different

to statements on a public forum which normalises the fact it is fine to publicly judge women on their appearance and is part of a wider sexist culture.

Its the thinner end of a wedge which means that men think it is fine to spout bile against women on social media, or shout something in the street, or have a quick grope, because, you know, women are there for their gratification.

Unless, of course, it is their daughter / wife / partner / sister who is on the receiving end.
