I had no idea what to title this thread :S

I was in the bus this morning and was sitting against the window when a van of 3 tradies stopped next to me at the lights. They were waving their hands about at me and doing stupid things to get my attention which made me feel uncomfortable (they were very ugly which made it worse)

Then I started to wonder why some guys feel the need to do dumb stuff like that? Why do they think flailing out the side of a car at girls is attractive? Or wolf whistling when a girl walks past or speeding past in their fast unimpressive cars, honking their horns etc?

Do girls actually find that stuff endearing? Do you feel flattered when a guy whistles at you or do you feel creeped out?

And have any of you guys ever done weird shit like this to girls? Does it get you the reactions you want and exactly what reactions do you want out of it? Because the only reactions I give is the 8( face. Maybe your aim is to creep people out? Good work in that case :grin:

I will admit though, if the guy is good looking sometimes I feel a little flattered. /smug.
 
These are the best things we can come up with :lew:

Blokes ,Toni, are douchebags and we have no idea how to attract women.
Short of blatantly going up to any woman we fancy ans saying "I like you we should get married and make babies" or the more immediate goal "Lets Fuck:monster:" we have nothing else better than the stuff you listed.

Sometimes when guys are attractive enough it gives them an edge and can pretty much just cash in on there looks it can get sophisticated. But thats like 1% of the dude population.

Those fucks in the Van are the worst and represent the culmination of 500,000 years of mating ritual initiation crap.

I dont think you are fat :), or a prostitute BTW :D

Coming to Big Day Out baby?
 
I often think men who do this do it purely to creep girls out, or because they want to stroke their own ego. They're looking for a positive reaction so that they can feel proud. Either they want to joke about how they managed to make a girl look, or they want to boast about how they were able to catch the girl's attention, which obviously means they're attractive. :brow:They probably think they've 'got the moves'! :awesome:

I'll admit that I feel somewhat flattered if the guy's attractive, but only for a split second. I don't believe these gestures are ever sincere, and an attractive guy doing it is just as stupid as someone less attractive doing it. The only difference is the attractive guy probably only does it for the sake of his ego, whereas those less attractive or a bit old (mid-40s) may do it because they feel like having a laugh.

Whatever the man's reason, I take it more as a sign of disrespect. Girls don't want that kind of attention, and most of them - if not all - know it.

So yeah, guys... if any of you do this, please stop. It REALLY doesn't make you look good. ;)

I always feel creeped out to be honest.

I've had a few whistles and sometimes when I'm driving home a guy will pull up beside me and do something like wave, or try to talk or whistle etc.

I always think that they just fucking around with me and don't really mean it.

Whenever I tell Steve he's like, 'Babe you're hot, they're just checking you out.'

He's so sweet. >.<

It still doesn't make me feel better about it though.

But then again I live in a dodgy bogan area, and most of the guys who do shit like that to me are dole bludging losers. They probably just stole the car they're sitting in next to me and just feel like being dicks when they're trying to get my attention.
 
Are you sure they were not trying to lynch you?

I have never done this and I doubt my pals have either, plenty of times a day I will check a lass out though. I do not really see the point of shouting or wolf-whistling, but I don't see the problem with it. Oh no, some guys thinks you look hot, the horror.
 
its just guys showing off in front of their pals. i wouldnt do it, dont think anyone i know would do it but we're all guilty of at least eyein them up as they pass. you probly find them both creepy, but women love attention. we all know this, so stop pretending you dont like it a little bit. even if you think the guy(s) are arseholes.
 
i just find it funny, i always try to keep a straight face, and just ignore them, but i always end up laughing

for the most part, its just harmless idiots. Some dirty old fart felt my arse once though, that i WAS outraged at. *shudders*
 
If a guy does this to me, I tend to try to make them feel as shot down and rejected as possible. It's a pitiful way to attract my attention, and it makes it quite obvious all they want to do is get into my pants (although any guy who even expresses interest in a girl is pretty obviously trying to get into their pants). I just do mean things for my amusement, though.
 
I've never done this, and am very annoyed by people that actually do stuff like this.

If the woman is attractive, I'll... slightly stare, well, because she is beautiful to me, am I harming anyone? I think not.

If it was the other way around, I'd be flattered, only if the woman was attractive, sorry, that's the ugly truth
 
I can't whistle very well so I can't wolf whistle. Even if I could, I would only do it ironically, because I am part hipster shithouse. I think it is only the working classes who whistle, they have not learnt the technical techniques such as talking to or being good looking that the middle class use to attract women. No one takes wolf whistling seriously.

When it happens you're like 'do I just ignore or do I say something'. As much as I want to do the latter, I've never done it. I pretend I don't hear anything, I think it's better that way. :hmmm:

Wolf-whistling is actually quite tame in my opinion. What really bothers me is when they try and talk to you, 'hey cutie, hi look here'. I don't understand why they do it also, I mean, I can't imagine myself whistling and waving to a random guy on the street. :wacky:
 
Personally I never do stuff like that. I've always had A soft spot for women (I just can't say no to them). I think it's probably from some misplaced sense of chilvary or something. I do however have a buddy that duid that once, and the poor girl was creeped out. So I quickly smacked him upside the head for it. I really hate guys like tha thrilled me off with their lack of concern for others feelings.
 
Fuck those men that do stupid shit like that. It's all attention seeking bullshit. I absolutely HATE when I see a guy do that to a woman. It's just idiotic, mean, and disrespectful. However, that's just a guy's look on it. There's probably some women that like it, in which case I'll say "whatever floats your boat".
 
I've never wolf-whistled or randomly tried to gather attention from a woman in this sort of sense, but I don't particularly want to shame guys who do do it. It's just fellas being fellas. Men do stupid shit. Many of us are idiots.


I'm not saying I'd like it if someone was doing these shows and dances to me. I'd be annoyed by it. Even if this girl has the hottest body, the prettiest face and so on... I wouldn't be able to take her seriously down the line. I get it; you think I'm attractive... How immature are you that you have to make a holy show of yourself?


but I would be flattered to a degree if someone was looking at me- weather they look like a model or a frog. I mean, there's billions of people in this world, more than a million in the city I live in, and said person is looking at me? Thanks, I'm flattered.

Personally, I think it's such bullshit that someone has to be "Attractive" to be allowed to admire you. I guarantee there's been times where you've(as a general address) have looked at someone who probably thinks you're horrid looking. Each to their own, but that's my outlook.

That's not to say I wouldn't prefer said person be attractive to me... But all the same, I'm thankful they took their time to stare at me for a minute.



On the other hand... Some people do stupid shit like this to make contact, to be friendly with people. Someone comes into the Dry-cleaners where I work, I'll banter and sometimes I might flirt with her. I'm not going to strip off and start "helicoptering" in her face. Sometimes it's just harmless fun- banter.

That's my view on the matter.
