The persistance of someone that you don't want to be bothered with in the first place should really be the topic of this conversation.

I guess some of you understand how a good looking women feels like when being persued by some really annoying person.
Actually, I can't say that I do

But I know how I feel.


Yeah, when you decline and they persist, that is a problem. It shows that they do not respect you in all actuality.

I don't see whats so hard to understand here.

Haven't we heard a million times about women complaining "how the best looking single men are always gay"

I've heard time and time again, women who think a man is so hot, and then they get dissappointed that he turned out to be gay.


Women typically don't make the first move, even in todays day in age of equality. They don't make their attraction known at ALL. So yeah, it may be a bit of an indicator, that if you are just good looking and stylish enough, that you sometimes get mistaken for being gay, then that logically means, that theres going to be a good number of women out there that are probably finding you attractive right now.

And while there are differences certainly, there is SOME overlap between what women find attractive, and what gay guys find attractive. So, while I wouldn't be flattered per se about a gay guy hitting on me, I would find it as an indicator, that I'm probably a good looking guy to women.

Again, there are differences of course, as many women also like guys who are a bit more rough around the edges.

That should be the only reason that you would have a probelm with the whole thing.

Any advice on what to do to prevent this? Or maybe its something on the way I dress that's giving off a false vibe to those people? I really don't know why this keeps happening to me but its getting annoying and one of these days I'm gonna end up cursing one of those guys out in front of everyone. That's how annoying this is starting to become.

Oh and please if ya gonna comment this, don't give me no stupid/dumb or irrelevant comments, if you're the one to comment BS I would prefer you keep your comments to yourself. Thanks
You might think of it as nuisance now. But consider if you were unattractive and no gay men OR straight women ever hit on you. Would you prefer THAT?

I thought not.

Butits pretty rude to look at anyone in Nyc.
Ha, actually, NYC is the only place on earth I've ever had a complete stranger come up to me and literally scream into my face. I assure you this random person was looking at me while doing it. My experience is that, yes, people in NYC do, in fact, look at other people, among other things.
