Why is it a woman can say to another woman or a man "Wow look at her i like her dress or skirt or heels or how shes dressed etc etc " but if a man says it a wife will say it's "I don't go round the supermarket looking at women!"

Weekly shop today in Tesco (Other supermarkets are available).. and woman long blonde hair (mask) black jacket, black leather type skirt (quite short but not tarty), black tights and knee high suede black boots with heels.

So load the car and driving from Tesco I exclaim to Esme bearing in mind we'd passed this woman and her husband or BF several times "Award for best dressed in Tesco today goes to the blonde in the leather skirt.. over dressed for Tesco but I appreciated what she was wearing"

What did Esme say.. "Yes I agree a bit over dressed" No.... "She looked nice" No

What she said was "No idea who you're referring to I don't go round Tescos looking at women"

We litterally walked past them 6-7 times at the start of our shop..

I said i don't either but you must have seen the woman long blonde hair boots tights leather skirt.. "No like i said i don't go round Tesco looking at women.,"

Neither do I but is there an unwritten rule ladies that us men can't make comment if we feel another woman has made an effort? looks nice? without a Wife / Gf think we're oggling the women in the supermarkets..
