Boyfriend in the wrong? Or did I overreact?

BF and I met his friend and someone he has been seeing for a couple of months last night at our local for drinks.

This was the first time we’ve met her, lovely girl and we got along well.

When she went to the loo, my BF turned to his friend and said something (not exact quote) like ‘I bet you can’t wait to get stuck into that later’ and they both laughed.

I told him afterwards I thought that was not a pleasant way to speak about her and he said that we were in a pub, had a couple of drinks and that’s just how blokes talk to each other, and he meant no disrespect.

AIBU to have found this unkind?

Grim. Wouldn't be keen on dating someone who is so casually propping up rape culture. If he doesn't understand that he is doing that he needs to educate himself

I saw a reel earlier which said that now women don’t need men to ‘provide’ we only need to choose based on their character and personality. And they are more alone than ever.

This is a perfect illustration.

I couldn’t be with someone who spoke like that.

He's definitely not a keeper, OP...
