Oh yeah, there's that too. Yikes!!!

It's not flattering at all having men undress you with their eyes, staring pointedly at body parts, turning around to look at your backside very obviously, and making sexually suggestive or explicit comments. It feels like harrassment.

Being hit on can be very degrading.

I can't wait to hear the response to this.

I'm not like that and I never hung out with anyone like that either. It is very disrespectful.

I'm quite shocked at what has been said by women in this topic so far. I had no idea how bad of a problem this may be.
Yes. And it's exacerbated by a few men in the thread telling us we should enjoy it because we'll miss it when it stops. Would be nice if those men didn't tell women how we should feel.

I can see how it could be annoying for an attractive woman to be hit on constantly but I'm sure its far better than never ever being hit on.

Hopefully you didn't have to wait too long.

Yes. Yes I would. And yes, money is a sign of my worth and desirability, it's one of those gender things.

Cool so no complaints about you about guys being expected to pay for every/most dates or if many gals pursued you solely because of your wealth and responded negatively if you rebuffed her.

Why not as your threads are about protesting gals saying no and the scenario is a person not dealing with rejection well?
