I agree with everyone’s opinions, it is annoying, and loud obnoxious conversations anywhere are inappropriate,but I offer up for consideration:
My 21 year old daughter has a half hour bus commute home from work, often late at night. IMO, she’s cute and often garners unwanted attention. I talk to her whenever a friend isn’t available. It is almost always an effective deterrent to creeps who want to harass a young girl who is alone. And of course, I don’t relax until she’s safe inside her security apartment (don’t tell her I still worry).
We do however keep the conversation as quiet as possible and I apologize for participating in anyone’s discomfort.
