how can this be acceptable??!!!!

So was at kings cross station a few hours ago and a guy called out "hey sexy I bet you like it up the arse. Want me to give it to you?" My reply " really? You think that's an ok thing to say to me" and walked off.
On the train a woman about my age came over and told me to "relax its only banter, don't be a tight arse haha".
That's not banter!!! How can people think that's acceptable? From a man then supported by a young woman!
Its really thrown me as I haven't had anything like that called out to me recently.
Mentioned it to a mate and she has things like that said at her multiple times a week, does it happen a lot to others too?!
Cant believe how common it seems to be after speaking to people.

Totally unacceptable and the woman defending it was an idiot. I can only assume she's had this said to her by 'friends' and now assumes everyone should put up with the same shit.

AMcoffeeLover what fuckwitts, (and I never normally swear), it sounds like he was an idiot, maybe this is the modern version, hello darlin'.

And she was just wanting to show how she has zero respect for herself or other women. Very sad for both of them.

Ignore, wash out your mind with a nice cuppa!

I love it in my bubble. But I must say sometimes just ignoring is probably best or something low level like you said, not a big rant, maybe they want to get a rise out of you that's why they do it. As a young women I was 'rent a reaction', I blew up at anything. Now when I hear comments I try and decide if I want to get involved in replying, sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. Maybe they wanted a reaction and were disappointed not to get one. So you got the last laugh. Enjoy your bubble.

I agree with this. Whatever happened to respect?
