It depends on the frequency and amount of detail for me. My partner and I are in an open poly relationship and certainly don't have any issue saying "that person is hot!" but I get very uncomfortable if someone starts telling me in detail every time they see the character or actor how much they want to have sex with them.

And I think that's kinda the thing. OP is evidently uncomfortable with it, and BF should respect her enough to tone it down. (Though I don't think OP mentioned whether or not she's talked to him about it.)

I agree. There's a big difference between noticing an attractive person (which is kind of involuntary) and rubbing it in to your SO that you find another person really attractive. Where to draw the line between appropriate and inappropriate depends on the kind of people you are and the kind of relationship you have, but in general you should try to avoid making your partner feel uncomfortable or inadequate.

For me, it's not even really that it's rubbing it in. It's that I really am uncomfortable with that kind of fixation. Esp with the OP clarifying below that he did it with RL women as well, that just... is really bothersome to me and raises lots of red flags. That really says to me there's an objectification issue, and the fact that he doesn't care enough to respect the OP's comfort levels is just a problem, period.

But yeah, thinking about it, at certain points in my life that would have made me feel horribly inadequate and insecure, as if a fictional character was more attractive than I was. So I can see that, too.
