Am I the only person who gets really annoyed when a guy talks about a girl he talked to and mentions her body?

Like, hey I talked to this girl and she was curvy af. Or I talked to this girl who is a little too skinny and needs to gain some weight..

I just really feel that this is degrading for women on general, I mean I have a lot of female friends and I never for once describe their bodies because it's not my place to do so, the only thing I would say is that they are pretty. I'm not perfect or anything but it just doesn't feel appropriate.

At least that's how it is in the Middle East and everyone thinks I'm the weird one.. And I live in a country with a high percentage of sexual harassment btw it even reached one of my sisters one time, it's a "naturally religious" society like they told me at school as a kid.
I think it’s common among both genders tbh. A lot of the women I’ve spoken to about men they may not focus too much on the guy’s physique, but there’s definitely mention of his appearance on how attractive he is, and I think that’s similar to men commenting on women’s physique with each other. There’s no perfect world where people are not going to judge and criticize each other especially when it comes to appearance/looks. It shouldn’t be something as important as people make it, but it is how a lot of people socialize when it comes to the opposite sex.
@Stark That makes sense. Nothing can be perfect yes like you said.

I guess it depends on what kind of comments they are. If they are simply positive descriptions of physical attractiveness, I'm okay with that and admittedly do it myself (for example, telling my friend about a tall guy I saw recently with amazing legs lol). But I guess for me it's mainly people I happen to see out and about I will describe in that way, not a friend, so in other words there would be no other reason to mention this random person other than the fact that they made me turn my head with their looks. Nothing wrong with not wanting to do that or not feeling it's appropriate, though.

This bothers me too. My husband actually used to do that about my friends ... oh she's fat or oh she's not pretty. I told him off because I do not base my friendships on looks and he should not judge because every single female in his family is obese so wtf
@Nayla That last bit is funny lol but yes judging people based on their looks is just bad.

I agree, it's disrespectful and shallow.
People are more than their physical attributes.
@SW-User I'm glad you agree with me 🤗 I befriend them for their brains 😎

Reminds me of high school boys talking about girls, it seems some people will never grow up.
@cherokeepatti Exactly lol

I don’t like it, but hearing anyone criticize someone else’s looks or make suggestive or sexual remarks in a casual way makes me feel weird. Even if it’s just someone they see on tv.
@itsok Yes that too! They make it feel like I'm odd or wrong in the head like I have to be like them to be acceptable.

Naw women talk about guys like that and their dicks size all the time. If you do it to her face, that's when it's crossing the line

@Nayla trying to humiliate others doesn't make you look classy it only makes u look like medieval diarrhea
Nayla · 51-55, F
@Nanori right so when he insults people on a daily or hourly basis that's okay though?
Nanori · F
@Nayla he is who he is, he doesn't go around calling himself classy then proceed to insult people, aka not a hypocrite

It cuts both ways really but I see your point. If I had a penny for every derogatory comment made about my body when I was dangerously underweight...

Still tho, the shoe is on the other foot now, as the saying goes 😂
