npgraphicdesign 3 #1 August 18, 2011 Obviously it's more women getting offended or creeped out when guys are checking them out, but having worked in a bar for 5 years, I've some guys get weirded out when women are excessively ogling them also. The point is...the first perception is visual and physical, no matter how you cut it. Whether it's a smile at someone or a look, that's all we get at first. So why the hell do people get offended? As long as you're not acting like a complete weirdo (goes for both sexes), what's so difficult about smiling back at someone when you smile at them? All you're really saying is 'damn you're good looking and yes I noticed that.' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

popsjumper 2 #7 August 18, 2011 In the setting you mentioned, smiling back probably will be taken as a sign of interest....usually taken as a come-on. Hell, just smiling at someone there is usually taken as a come-on.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

missbrz 0 #14 August 18, 2011 agreed. If you get hit on its a compliment so why get offended. Even if you're not interested, accept the compliment and move on. I'm equally annoyed when women don't think they're hot & refuse to let anyone tell them otherwise. Like at work, we need to come up with team names for our groups for a team building scavenger hunt. Our all girl team wants to be the "Jalapeno Hotties" but we cant because one girl doesnt want to be called a hottie since she doesnt believe it to be true.
