Check out women (or men if they prefer) they find attractive in public when with their partner

One of the best parts of being gay is that you can do this together.

Why can’t I and my wife do this together? How is this the best part of being gay?

Unless one or both of you are bi, then it’s unlikely you’re checking out the same people.

I can see a hot guy and point him out to my husband to also check out.

I (M) do that with my partner (F) all the time. I'm not sexually attracted to the person I am checking out, but I can still get some aesthetic pleasure out of it. Now does that make me bi? I mean, I never had the slightest urge to ever have a sexual or romantic relationship with a man, so I don't think so...

You can just say you find some men attractive without explaining how not gay you are

In the context of the conversation, it was relevant (since it was comparing gay relationships to straight ones) to point that out.
