ANNA KOOIMAN: It's a battle of the sexes type question, I guess. Putting your arm around your girlfriend, if you're a dude, is that sexist? Well, according to actress Helen Mirren, she says, men, you need to keep your hands off. here's what she says, 'It annoys me when I see men with an arm slung around their girlfriend's shoulders. It's like ownership, of course. When you're young you want the guy to take your hand and look after you, but when I see girls being leaned on I want to say, tell him to get his damned arm off your shoulder.'
STEVE DOOCY: Really?
BRIAN KILMEADE: That's fascinating. I never thought about it, means ownership.
DOOCY: And she says it's sexist.
KOOIMAN: I like it. I feel safe and secure. It's nice.
KILMEADE: You don't feel like you're being owned?
DOOCY: The curious thing is that's her husband with his hand on his wife, ironically.
KILMEADE: He doesn't own her, just got her wrist.
DOOCY: You know, I know Helen's watching right now. Helen, to me, when you put your arm around your girl, it's a sign of affection, it's a sign of connection, and --
KILMEADE: She might be cold.
DOOCY: Could be cold.
KILMEADE: Could be cold.
DOOCY: But regarding that opinion, Helen Mirren, America does not need a chaperone. Just saying.
KILMEADE: Right.
DOOCY: I'm just saying.
KOOIMAN: Free advice --
DOOCY: I'm not taking her advice.
KOOIMAN: You know, I mean even like when you're walking down the sidewalk with a man it's nice when he's on the outside and you're on the inside. You just feel protected. That's the way I feel, anyway.
DOOCY: That's sexist.
KOOIMAN: Well, I'm the one saying it.
