My Ex was a very good looking man and I often got comments like that - it didn't bother me, I just said "yes, he is isn't he?" or something like that.
Now when I was showing some pictures of my DS2 to some women I knew and they made some "he's hot/sexy" comments it kind of freaked me out... I mean, that's my baby they were talking about! And they were waaay to old for him, to be making those kind of comments - eewww, lol.

I've had women comment on how nice looking my husband is, usually women from school or work who see pictures or meet him for the first time. I just smile and say "yes he is, isn't he?". If it's that basic of a comment, then there are no ruffled feathers for me. It's just an honest observation, not a challenge to take him way from me!
If it's an inappropriate compliment, then it's a little more rankling. I once have a good friend comment at a baseball game our husbands were both playing in, about how great my husband's tush looked in his baseball pants  I just said "hey, eyes back on your own husband, Girlfriend". I wasn't worried about anything at all, just didn't find an observation of that nature too appropriate and wanted her to know it.

It would depend on whether it was innocent appreciation or lewdness. You probably discern the difference.
To appreciation, I'd laugh or let it pass; if it was lewd, I'd probably scowl at the person and change the subject and keep them at arm's distance afterwards.
Scripture talks about people who have adultery in their eyes, and about people neighing after their neighbor's wives like lusty stallions; so, yeah, there are people around with trampled hedges in their lives that open to sexual sin.

I just smile and say "yeah...he is"!

Since neither of us have our youthful charm anymore, first I'd blink and then I'd say Thank you. I find him sexy indeed. But then again, I find a good use of braincells very sexy.

Depends. There was once a time when my husband was playing softball and two women on the bleachers were talking and said he was cute, or something like that. I didn't know them and wasn't involved in their conversation, so I just smiled to myself. Later, when the game was over, and we were all down together, I was introduced to them and their husbands. I thought it was kind of funny.
When others have commented to me, it doesn't bother me at all. I know he's attractive.
But, if someone were to comment inappropriately, like with an overtly sexual tone, or if they were to seem flirtatious toward my husband, then I'd be on guard. I'd watch carefully how he reacted/interacted with them for any sign that I needed to step in.

Hmm. There are alot of females commenting on this. I think with males its different because when a guy says your SO is hot to you then we know what is probably on their mind (him undressing her/having sex with her in some sick fantasy)
Guys are normally perverts and this is 90% said in a lewd, lusting way. (I am in college, and this has proven true there as well as high school. Maybe it changes as you get older, my guess is probably not)

My typical response would be yes, and I know how blessed I am .
I have recently said that to someone that was a friend back in hs and we had not seen one another in a long time, so it's not something that is said to offend...
Besides it's a lot better than hearing "wow she is so ugly how did you end up with her" lol
