Any male who is still breathing appreciates the beauty of a good looking woman.
And there is no harm in looking at something or someone that is beautiful.
However, when it comes to making the one he is with uncomfortable by making comments, staring, or comparing, that is taking it too far.
I've been on this planet for almost 64 years. Been with the same woman for 30 years. She knows I still will cast a glance at a pretty woman. It's only natural.
But I ain't in love with that woman. And I don't make any comments.
I'm still in love with the one that other guys used to stare at 30 years ago because she was one of those that had the looks and figure that got other mens attention.
She still looks damn good to me even though neither one of us look like we did 30 years ago.

Who's your daddy? Sheesh classy! Ok girl 2 can play at that game! Next time you are out with him eye some guy up like he is a piece of roast beef and say "mmmm Wish i could ride that stallion". I'll bet that will be the last time you have to worry about your husband .

Take him up on the therapy option. Maybe the nit wit will believe its wrong when someone with a paper on the wall tells him it is.

It is disrespectful. My husband never does that to me. He claims he doesn't look at other women. I know he is lying though his teeth. I am sure he looks at other women. He just does it in a way that is not obvious and he never makes comments about them.
I think YOU should start commenting about every attractive man you see when you're with him and see how he likes it.

If I were you I would just tell my husband that I don't want to hear it, and if he persists, I would do something else. I would do something to embarrass him on the spot, like maybe ask the lady he is oggling if she would like to cook his meals and do his laundry for awhile, so something like that, you probably get the picture.

I will NEVER in a million years understand why any woman would point out another women's breasts to her husband

No he's the one who needs to go to therapy NOT YOU. He is the one with the problem.

I don't agree with the 'tit for tat' scenario. Two wrongs do not make a right. And you would most likely end up with more problems than you have now.

You have shared with him your thoughts/feelings about his behavior; and he believes you are the one with the problem.

The decision is now up to you how you will handle this issue. You will either accept him as he is; continue to complain; continue to be hurt and miserable; or you may choose divorce.

We can't make the choice for you; this is your life and only you can make the choices.

I feel for you, very much. Yes, his actions/words are completely inappropriate, rude, hurtful, and very immature.

The only person you can change is yourself.

I wish you the best in whatever decision you make.

I disagree. He needs to understand what it FEELS like and there is no better way she can teach him this then modeling his own behaviour.

I always follow this rule: "You can look but not touch". It works wonders.

This is the one time where I can't co-sign this dude's actions. He violated one of the most important rules in Man Law, DO NOT LOOK AT OTHER WOMEN IN THE PRESENCE OF YOUR WIFE/GIRLFRIEND. He set himself up for any backlash you may give him. In his mind, he's looking at the menu and not ordering so he doesn't see anything wrong with that.
