Except that’s not what he did. He’s been harassing women for decades.

And, like all abusive people, he is taking zero responsibility. Note his language. He’s blaming the new rules. At no point does he acknowledge his own actual wrongdoing. He was misinterpreted. The rules changed.

Poor guy. He’s the victim here. This is a classic abuser posture.

I hope his wife divorces him and writes a truthful book.

That's not how I read it:

Compliments on a women's appearance that some men, including me, might have once incorrectly thought were OK, were never OK. Not then and certainly not today, and, for making such comments in the past, I'm sorry.

I am no fan of Matthews but he clearly admits to todays improper behavior and accepts responsibility for what is now considered improper speech toward women but clearly was NOT considered improper back in the day.

My take is that anyone who thinks an apology is due from somebody for something said 30, 40, 50 yrs ago which at that time was perfectly fine is completely f’n NUTS!

Good looking women KNOW they are good looking and dress to accentuate their best features. Women at least the ones I new and grew up with LOVED to be complimented and told the new dress or hairstyle is flattering. Do women really believe they don’t go through all the torture they seem to go through by dieting, exercising, spending literal fortunes on salves, ointments face packs and the rest of it for only themselves and NOT to appear attractive to men? Perhaps gay women don’t but even they do this to be attractive to other women.
