Why is it that everybody is harassing you? Do your friends have to deal with this as much as you do?

I'll say it again 8-10 men a day is over 1000 in a period of three months and if ALL of them are losers then you HAVE to seriously evaluate yourself.

Yes they do, and I think most of the female population here in New York. If you would read the article, you would understand.

I don't know where exactly you live, but are you hanging around some shady areas? The only time I really had an issue was at a concert- although it could have been the second hand smoke from Snoop Dogg making the men a bit more, ugh... relaxed?!

To answer your question, I've never really thought about it, or counted how many. I'm just happy when people are nice- whether it's a man being flirtatious or just a nice man holding the door open for women.

So, while many of us are on a long dry spell you complain that you have guys over you? is that all? I wish you now had a couple of years with absolutely NO men approaching you. With that attitude, and since you don't value the opportunities you have, it's what you should get.

A thousand to one? And you're not the problem? Believe me when I tell you I won a case of harassment and they picked apart my entire life and every tiny shred of my personality in the process. That's something you might want to do - evaluate yourself and your criteria and the places you go, your attitude and personality in general.

Hmmm, it really does not matter how a woman acts. Harassment is harassment. You are the type who would ask a rape victim how she acted. Women in New York are harassed for just walking down the street, minding their own business.

Try 28 years! LOL

It seems like a silly thing to complain about, but to each their own. I guess those of us who don't live in NYC just don't understand anything....
