I was looking at that viral video of the woman who kept getting cat calls as she was walking through NYC. I realize that women get hit on a lot when they are in public, but I wonder how often men get hit on in public? I know when I was younger there were a couple rare occasions, but not anymore. Then again I don't get out much.

What has been the experience of other men here?

I can't reciprocate as I am forbidden under policy and contract.

I am flattered though.

What kind of work do you do?

Where else would a guy get hit on if not in public?!

Nope. I cannot recall ever being hit on randomly in public. A couple of times at bars/shows, but never out in public. It would be nice.

It has happened many times before, though not from the types I want. I see the subtle signals ladies, so don't think you can hide .

Once in a while, yes. But it isn't very often and a few times I missed in entirely due to how subtle the woman was but my wife later clued me in.

Just today starting a new job there is this colleague who was just touching me a lot...I'm taking things very carefully because it's a working environment, but I noticed she was only doing that to me and not the other male coworkers.

She is nice looking but I don't think anything serious there.
