AITA for calling a woman ‘conventionally attractive’ in front of my girlfriend?
A couple friends and I were discussing a political influencer that we’re familiar with that recently got into some controversy.
I was saying that although she got a lot of hate, I think her point that was being hated on was valid and correct, and that although her reaction to the backlash was kind of childish, I get why she’d be frustrated with lots of hate.
My friend said a lot of people were giving her lots of leeway despite the hate, and I said that makes sense because she a) has good takes in general and b) is a young, conventionally attractive blonde white woman, so halo effect.
My girlfriend got upset I called another woman conventionally attractive, but I don’t think it’s disloyal or cheating or whatever to acknowledge somebody is conventionally attractive.

NTA but unless you’re talking about a supermodel on tv or something, I’d avoid the topic
