I think it depends on what you consider 'hit on'. Do I count the drunk men in their 60s that slobber over me and tell me how great I'd probably be in bed? Or the ones that stare at my boobs and say something lewd about me?

I only count 'hitting on' as being interested and asking for a date or 'hang out'. Not insinuating that they just want to get me naked.

Sorry, but if someone is making moves on you to get you into bed, they're hitting on you.

Hit on is hit on. There aren't any considerations for how you're hit on or by who.

I have to concur, unless the lewd comments are purely for show then its a grey area.

In that case, I get hit on a lot. It's just never by men under 50 and never anything more than wanting to get me into bed or making a disgusting lewd comment.

Does that mean getting whistled at while you're on a jog, or having a coworker say 'Damn, your boobs look sexy today' also counts as getting hit on? How about a guy walking up and grabbing your butt?

The other day I got a cat-call from some 18 year old at work, does that count? Another hooked me up with free breakfast, took me by surprise.

All constitute being hit on......a lot of it is nasty and disrespectful.

It's unbelievable that 30% out of 54% of the males on here are in the bottom 2 category's. And that the bottom one is the BIGGEST.

My hit on rate is about once a week unless your counting people I already know. If that's the case I could be leaning more towards the "at least once a day". I was stuck between these 2 because it's not every day but it's most days. But people may have different rules to what counts as being hit on.

I thought most guys who weren't model material weren't hit on regularly. I'm actually surprised by how well we're doing.

Why is that surprising?
