I dont care how much you love and respect your partner guys will take notice of other women if only to admire another womans beauty for a brief moment, its the way we guys are wired,any guy walking down a beach that doesnt take a short casual glance at an attractive woman as she walks by is defective in my opinion. To the op ,get darker shades if she doesnt grasp the concept,guys look at women if she cant deal with it tell her to get lost.
Guess what ... women do this to men, too.
I am so sick of this stupid myth that MEN are "wired" to look at women like it's their God-given right.
WE ALL notice attractive people. The difference is that only a-holes who believe there is something genetic involved insist that they "can't" do anything about it.
Get some self-control, some self-respect, and show some respect to your partner.

No kidding, but we arent talking about women looking at guys we are talking about this guys predisposition to take a casual look at a pretty woman something that is not a myth its something guys do,its natural whats not natural is this guys girl friend watching where this guy is looking then giving him heat for looking,staring is something else and if this is what he does she may have a point..
IMO if at this point in the relationship she's giving you a hard time about what you are looking at its only going to get worse, get some self respect and end this charade.
Huge difference between discretely noticing a pretty girl and outright staring at every pretty lady who crosses your path.
Given that y'all have dated for 2 yrs and you didn't mention anything about her being controlling in the past, I'm inclined to suspect you may be leering or undressing a bunch of other women with your eyes.
WE were talking about that until YOU came in with the "men are wired to look" BS.
It's bull.
Everyone notices attractive people, and everyone can decide if it bothers them when their partner does it, and if they need to tone it down.
i'm missing your point,
My point is our op doing something natural and his girlfriend taking an overly aggressive or controlling attitude about it?.
Perhaps you could also explain why guys having a natural tendency to look at women seems to have touched some nerve as you are coming across rather aggressively at the implication.

Because you don't get that women also have a natural tendency to look at handsome men. It's NOT a male-only thing that you men no control over, as you assert.
We both know and acknowledge that the GF is overreacting and insecure, but he has ownership in this also.

Interesting. My first thought was she was becoming less secure and tightening the clamps on him.
