Heh, that's pretty much exactly what I did in my situation... I stayed quiet, both because
(a) I was debating exactly how to respond, and how forcefully... I mean, I don't know this guy and I'm a guest in someone else's home, and I wasn't sure how much drama I was going to stir up by saying something. I mean, most likely it would have just led to a minute or two of awkward silence, but what if the guy really wanted to get into it?
(B) I was really hoping that the host would step in and say something. Maybe I was expecting too much of him, but I just felt as though the admonition would carry a lot more weight if it came from a straight guy who the jerk already had a relationship with than some random girl who he'll probably never see again. Especially since everyone else was either quiet or playing along with the joke, I guess I was afraid that it would be too easy to brush my comments aside as the rantings of one angry lesbian...
But, I still wish that I'd said something... And, hopefully the next time a similar situation presents itself, I will.
