Slut Shaming

So it's 8:30 on a Sunday night and while most people are glued to the TV watching the Oscars, I'm fighting with my boyfriend about feminism. I had an issue with the way he approached me about societal views on women a couple days ago, teenage girls in particular, so I confronted him about it tonight. So now, he keeps trying to shove this "You know it's harder for guys to get girls, so they should get praised for getting with a bunch of them," idea down my throat. He actually just made a comment like, "If a girl has sex with a bunch of guys, that's disgusting. I'm sorry if that offends you but its most definitely a popular opinion." So me, thinking on my feet, completely reversed the roles in the same exact sentence and sent it back to him. Now he's taking this all as a big joke and decides to go on telling me how outrageous I'm being. Is he being ignorant, or is it just me? Thoughts?
