I think the difference between the things you mentioned Ammi are that when someone like Jack says somethimg self depreciating that it is a defence to say it himself and first. Whereas when someone speaks about sexual behaviour or conquests it is more that it is something they feel promotes them and is a boaast about themselves though others may not view it as classy. Simon with his flamboyance and catchphrases was very self promoting to the point that it irritated.
I think its the self promotion motive that people find distasteful.
