If that was the only thing, you would be solidly in the majority group that women find more attractive as they get to know more about them. The group that they don't screen out in the beginning.
If everyone had to look like a hollywood pretty boy, the majority of men would never get together with women.
The thing that puts me in the turn-off group is not looking like a Hollywood actor.
I understand.
I will only chat with guys who look like movie stars too. Most women too, matter of fact, I think all of them.
Honestly, I'm uncomfortable just talking with you via the internet 'cause I know your not good looking.
Don't tell anyone I did, k?

I open doors for men, women and children and have been doing so since I was a kid. No one has ever yelled at me.
Getting yelled at for opening a door (especially if it happens more than once) means you are doing something very creepy.
Or maybe the person doing the yelling has some sort of issues (from Trauma maybe?). It does happen. I'd have to see it for myself in order to come to some conclusion on this issue. But you do have a point if it is more than once. You may have to check yourself.
I've heard that L.A. could be pretty stuck up so yeah. I believe you on that. I've also lived in California and a couple of different places, and I have seen differences in people. You might want to consider relocating because women are a bit different where I am.
Apparently, you've never been there. Either that or you never actually venture out into public to see all the non-movie star looking guys that are paired up with women.

The conversations (as I've explained) did not start as me trying to find out who said what to whom?
It went like this:
Actor Co-worker: "Hey, don't you think Jenny is cute?"
Me: "Yes, she's plenty cute. But I think she has a man."
ACW: "Really? She never mentioned that to me."
Me: "I was talking to her about the author signing schedule and she mentioned her boyfriend in the middle of the conversation."
ACW: "Weird, we were talking about our favorite beaches in town and she never mentioned a boyfriend."
So that's how it went and when these guys would randomly discuss the women in the store, I noticed the pattern.
It's really that simple.
Very unusual workplace conversation, IMO. I can't recall being asked as an adult by another guy if I think a woman is cute or good looking outside of work (outside of say high school or perhaps undergrad), and definitely never at work.

I asked earlier but I think it got buried. Do you think it could also be possible that in a lot of cases the other men you are talking to just didn't hear her mention a boyfriend. Like I said, until this thread I never really noticed how much people mention boyfriends or girlfriends. But now I notice. Or maybe they don't remember the mention from a previous conversation. Lol that reminds me of a guy I work with who keeps forgetting I have a boyfriend. The guy I work with is gay and married so it's not that he's interested in me or anything, but any time my boyfriend comes up in conversation he acts surprised and asks, "oh you're dating someone?" Yep, same man I've been dating for the past year Rob.
Yes, it's possible it's a preemptive gentle turn down on the part of some women. I don't think anyone denies that happens with some women sometimes. But there are also a lot of other reasons you aren't considering from it's just natural to mention the love of your life in casual conversation to the other person just didn't hear it and doesn't remember a mention.
I guess what I'm saying is don't take it personally and don't assume the motive behind it. It really doesn't matter.
