Husband eyeing up jogger

My husband went for a walk tonight, when he got home he told me there was a woman walking in front of him with tiny Lycra shorts on, he said he just ‘didn’t know where to look,’.

He said loads of men in cars beeped at her and one car nearly crashed trying to get a better look at her.

He couldn’t wait to tell me.

I felt weird after he told me, I started back at the gym today for the first time In ages.

im not sure why but it made me feel off, like he got some weird kick out if it.

My husband when we first got together (in our twenties) used to openly comment on other women being hot eg actresses on tv. I got fed up with this as it made me feel insecure. What really nipped it in the bud was when I started doing the same about fit men. This may or may not be a sensible strategy for you now but it certainly worked for me when we were younger !

We were at some lights and a motorbike pulled up alongside, there was a girl on the back wearing not very much, short shorts, vest top.
Mr Kat said, "What's she doing on a motorbike dressed like that ?
And what's that guy doing letting her on his motorbike dressed like that ?
Any kind of accident and she'll be ripped to shreds
If she was my daughter she'd be grounded. Forever"
"I'm getting old, aren't I"

He couldn’t wait to excitedly tell you about a woman getting sexually harassed by loads of men?

What a fucking weirdo.

It’s not a trope it’s a fact . If that wasn’t true there wouldn’t be strip joints , brothels and girlie magazines . Men like looking at the female physique and if it’s on display they will look . Get over it .

TBF, women are also just as visual but we're less crass about it 😂

Women are also visual, just sadly lots of men look like talking toes.

If my DH said something like that (which he wouldn’t) it would be met with a “well go and fucking live with her and her nice arse then!”

It’s a bit weird to detail how nice someone else’s arse is to your partner. Especially since this supposed magnificent arse almost caused a car crash… I think he’s probably making that last bit up, but if it’s true I am genuinely curious about this world class bunda.

I'd tell him that shit needs to stay in his head.

He looks.
I look.

Do we sit around talking about it like creeps? No!

Triangulation op. That’s what you felt him doing. Women are all over beaches and leisure centres in such clothing. Do men need help behaving normally in these places seeing how they just can’t cope with seeing things?
