We didn't talk about females like that when we were 16.

I'm 62. I still don't talk about females in that manner.

You cannot excuse sexist behavior by claiming their youth as an excuse. At 16, most of their morals are cemented, wouldn't you think?

Lots of bragging and bawdy talk. Most (90%?) just BS.
But, assault as something to brag about? Never heard any such thing.
Since that kind of conversation wasn't my thing, I was mostly hearing it from 15 feet away. But, I heard it.
But, not like what PINO said.

how they would have reacted if an adult male looked at their 10 year old daughter and said, "I'll be dating that in ten years". All of them said they would essentially kill the guy.

The "actor" who played the character not so much. Did he do anything noteworthy after showing up on "Happy Days"? I seem to remember the show kind of "jumping the shark" after they strayed away from the Cunningham's and the "Fonz' being the main focus of the show. I also seem to recall Baio's name being mentioned from time to time, usually associated with some rightwing douche bag BS. I suspect I didn't I miss anything noteworthy.

I don’t care to hear about the sexual experiences of other men and I’m not interested in talking about my own. This is how I’ve felt in literally every stage of life from middle school to where I am now in my 40s. A sure way to put me to sleep is to talk about how you got with this chick and did this or that. It’s insanely dull conversation.

She'll do the same for her own son?

I was that age at that time. I would love to time travel and tell myself he wasn't worth it. And slap him in to next week while I was at it. What a massive disappointment!
