I was walking with a younger colleague when glimpsing a female whose facial features he thought more appropriate in a stable he muttered, "Whoa! Tough helmet!"
Frankly, I found her quite attractive and naturally assumed his tenebrous remark was complimentary. "Yea, she *IS* very pretty in a bookish way," I said, "but let's pretend we're civilized and try not to be obvious while we're staring." With a scrunched forehead, and one raised brow, he eyed me suspisciously and said "Geez! Have you no taste in women? *What* do you consider a good-lookin' woman?"
"Well, I kinda go in for the school-marm look, a woman in a long dress down to her ankles, hair in a bun, a ruler in one hand that she slaps smartly in the other, and a gleam in her bespectacled eye that says she just might use it."
Complete silence for a few moments and finally in a tone of utter disgust, "God ... You're a perve!"
In any case, "tough helmet" which I assume translates as "a face like a sea-hag."
