There are these guys that sit with me at lunch and just about every girl that gets up to dump their tray they have to comment on their butts or boobs or both. It is very aggravating and I try to tell them they will get in a fight with one of there boyfriends if they find out. What should I do to stop them?

Some guys think that putting down women boosts their masculinity. It doesn't.
1 - Don't sit with them.
2- If you can't avoid them, think up a clever putdown, and sneer at them. Such as, If all you can think about is butts, you must be a butthead. Or, Guys who talk about butts all the time are worred about the size of their u-kno-whats. Hopefully you can think up something better than that, but you get the idea. It may not stop them, but it will let them know you think they are jerks.

the clarification that guy have been given violent replaced into because of the fact u close him down, and him turning out to be agressive replaced into in a feeling a defence mechanism as he replaced into a great deal shocked and embarrassed so abusing u makes him experience like a guy back! So shop telling them! Dont be afraid to stand up for urself, if ur nonetheless uncertain to assert something, dont. in any different case cary pepper spray if that happens back or if all and sundry is around, ask them if u can walk with them if u experience risky.

"get in fights with one of their boyfriends if they find out?" men aren't here to get in fights on behalf of women, and its very patronizing and insulting to think that a woman wouldn't be capable of defending themselves if they felt insulted. this also shows what your attitude is about the issue of women being considered property of men.
everyone has a right to think what they want, no matter how stupid or sexist. just the same you have a right to tell them what you think, and if you dont like what they say then tell them to sit elsewhere or you can just move to another table.

You don't mention where you are when this is taking place. Is this a lunchroom at school or at work? In either place, it's constitutes sexual harrassment. You can tell them knock it off or you will report it. If you are uncomfortable when they make those comments in the meantime, don't sit with them.

3. "Hey guys, I don't like those kind of comments. How about dem Bears?"

You've already done what you could. You can't change them. Some guys only learn when they get beat up. If you can't stand it, you'll have to ignore it if you want to keep hanging out with them.

Tell in no uncertain words to knock it off .. If that don't work,
try to find someplace else to sit/hang out.
