   I commented on the appearance of all three individuals, including both men.

That's no defense.  The male executive would be no less offended if
you called him "bright-eyed and pretty".  You called him traditional
instead.  You might be able to get away with calling a female/male
executive traditional but you will not get away with calling any
professional person "bright-eyed and pretty".  Also, from where I come
from, you call someone obnoxious, expect a brick comin' back.

David you are pretty; pretty ignorant.
