How would you react

A bit pathetic really.

I think you made this up.

I think you made this up.

Wishbi had. Ruverwalk. But it dud happen today and to be honest about a minute after the "now where were we" bit. I made an excuse and went outsude for some air.

Your vowel keys seem to be all over the shop.
Fortunately, your skill with speech marks is admirably holding up.

Why did you need the fresh air?
Were you angry?
This sort of thing might be a bit ‘sweet’ with a man in their 90s, but 61?

How about 'Oh for heavens sake, act your age and not your shoes size'.

I would certainly have responded fast and with a put down. it is all you can do to hold your self respect. Once back home all hell would have been let loose.

So reading back, I think that you want us to vote on whether, in that situation, we would be:

1. amused
2. angry
3. embarrassed

Is that right?

I got from gobsmacked to did that really happen, to embarassed to mad.

Now pse tell me girls

Which girls would that be?

I’d be soooo embarrassed. I’d have had a right go at him in the car going home. It was so non PC.
Your man’s a sexist prat & I expect the saleswoman thought the same.

Or any of the boys that post on this site might have an opinion.

I would have given him a karate chop to the throat

Did you find Bernard Manning and Benny Hill funny?

Perhaps you thought Jimmy Saville was just a bit too “ handsy”

You are either a troll or very stupid…. It’s 2021 for crying out loud.

In this day and age, from the sort of thing I read in the papers, he’s lucky he’s lucky she didn’t report him for sexual harassment.

Eviebeanz me too. Slimy old creep.

Yes please. Though I was all 3.

Op didn't say if this is "normal for him"...

I guess us Nans. It is good sometimes to ssk how others would be. Times change and I guess we all would respond differently.

I was. I did. And I think you are tight, the three of us were embarrassed, me, the girl snd the salesman.

Did you speak to your H about it later? What did he say?

Yuck.

Boys will be boys is the worst.

I’d have been extremely embarrassed and annoyed if it had been my husband . I would have told him so too.

Thank you, exactly. It is 2021. I was hoping someone would think same as me. Its why i went for some air, was too embarassed.

I think it was really childish to be honest, I’m sure the girl was embarrassed, I think he should have kept his thoughts to himself, I wouldn’t be very impressed,

@SeaNain - is he like this all the time?
