Dear group of guys I walked past while taking my afternoon constitutional 'round the corporate campus park:

My wearing sunglasses means that YOU can't see MY eyes. Not the other way around. So, you might want to learn to be more subtle about where you're staring when a lady walks past. What all of you did? Not subtle.

Also, someone wearing headphones can, indeed, sometimes hear what people they walk by are saying. While I was very amused by the low-pitched "Daaaaaaaaaamn!", on other days I might not have been. See the above point about subtlety, and how you don't have any.

With kind (and amused) regards,

Princess MoonBeam

Humph. Want me to hunt them down and give them a good kicking?

The mad scientist in me wants to know how much exposure to unusually dressed people these guys would need before they stopped staring. They'd have to be chained to the pole at the Vogue for several weeks at least, I think.

I don't think the staring was so much about the unusual wardrobe, but more about the fact that I'm a girl. ::rolls eyes::

I thought that was what you meant, but I couldn't believe that anything you would wear to work would have the same effect as something, say, [livejournal.com profile] sirriamnis would wear to work. Sheesh.

That's what amused me so. I mean, yes, fluffy petticoats and a fitted jacket that defines my waist & bosom, but the bosom is covered. Sheesh indeed.

LMAO... I think that can safely be taken as an expression of admiration though? Or intrigue?

I do think it is rude to stare though, so it *was* bad behavior.

Yes, covered, but most women here don't have such well-defined figures, because they wear baggy clothing because if you're over 105 lbs, you should be wearing a potato sack, or because they're all skinny girls with the tight t-shirts, low riders, and no figures whatsoever.

Next time, you should carry a parasol or walking cane and rap them sharply right below the kneecaps. That'll learn 'em. Or tell them they need to go to a finishing school before you'd even look at them with more than barely-veiled contempt.

Shallow details? :)

herm. How rude.

This falls under that "nice rack" "excuse me?" "er, um, er, nice rack" "thank you, I grew it myself" *quick turn on heel, and walk off with confidence leaving said boy flustered beyond belief*.

I mean, the occassional turn around the corner with an exclaimation out of shock is one thing, but the pre-meditated comments can just go.

maybe it was something in the air. I mis-timed my journey home on the bus and got abus full of schoolkids - one of the lot that had piled off, was shouting through the window to ones still on the bus 'hey, check out the lady getting on' - and as I was the only person getting on...'I'm standing RIGHT HERE guys'...I was in a flouffy skirt too...but then, these days they learn their manners from the telly where to be witty means to put the other person down in cruel and snarky fashion.
