Some would say that women are pressured to be as pretty as possible by our patriarchical, misogynistic culture. Some would also say that noticing and remarking first and primarily on a woman's attractiveness is a type of objectification, where her other attributes are implicitly downplayed or ignored and her status as a sex object is implicitly put up as the most important of her features, thus dehumanizing and degrading her.

Just for clarification: Is he sexist for thinking it, or expressing it publicly? Because to call someone sexist for simply finding a person attractive is nonsense, as far as I'm concerned.
