The love it. Women even the most feminist ones feel the only thing worse than being objectified by a man is not being objectified.

I see you baby shaking that ass shaking that ass shaking that ass I see you baby shaking that ass don't touch me!

Personally, I don't like it, makes me feel like a piece of meat 😔. I don't blame men for looking (that's only natural), I blame society for teaching them to look at the female body as an accessory or object. Dehumanizing women (which is essentially what objectification does) detaches females from the "human" form and reinforces a "lesser than" dynamic. Yea, I'm not okay feeding into that.
Oh, and the repeated sentiment that women dress for men, therefore men should be allowed to stare, oddly, is rarely said by women, which is funny because the wording implies women are granting men permission to look. Rather it seems to be guys saying it, kinda sus they feel the need to put words in female mouths to justify themselves. Almost like they know it's wrong... Just an observation...
@KrakenAttackin I'm not granting ✨anyone (hunks included)✨ permission to gawk, and I'm female. Damn, that's what we in the business call a counterexample 👀.
Gawking is rude regardless of gender or perceived attractiveness. I imagine the reason guys might like being occasionally gawked at, probably has to do with the rarity of girls openly being that kind of R u D e ❤. Yea, girls are reduced to meat far too often for it to be taken as anything but an insult.
We women are hypocrites in this regard. If we didn't want people looking, we'd wear the swimming equivalent of burkas.
I enjoy men respectfully admiring my body, as long as it doesn't cross over to leering or drooling.
You’ve summed it up so perfectly babez!
Both sexes like to be looked at when at the beach etc,
however both also get a bit creeped if stared at.
I would hazard a guess (and from experience with gf’s) that there is a very fine line to an appreciative look and a perv creepy way of doing it.
I've witnessed some classic out downs or ‘revenge’ against guys going to far in to the creepy zone lol.
Yes. It does absolutely come down to the TYPE of “look” (sometimes it’s a fkn stare) AND the person who is behind the look and the receiving woman. For example I’m someone who generally hates people looking at me and it’s been that way since I was a little girl. Maybe 5 or so I would give “death stares” to people and that hasn’t changed now that I’m much older. Yes I am attractive and I dress “sexy”, but I’m not doing it for male attention as many men will claim anyway.
@Babewithplan
I posted this on another thread, however it’s sort of still valid, especially with comments about bikinis etc.
A quote I was sent by a girl mate this morning:
Reminder as we get in to hotter weather:
She’s not dressed as a slut, you just think like a rapist.
It’s cold here in Australia, but yes!
@ Pretty Pink Anon thank you most appreciated

Depends on how he does it and is he's attractive. It can be either flattering or uncomfortable. But either way... I think it's a bit more uncomfortable than flattering if it's specifically in a bikini.
Maybe it's a confidence thing... but either way, women are not men. It's not always 100% pleasant as it is for men, I can get self sonscious.
It's the same for guys.
Sure, a guy has the right to say no, in theory, but the old creepy women being pushy with their advances also happens.
It is welcome from someone you find attractive, that is obvious.
@NoLookingAtSoleil Not quite. Women don't get arrested/fired for being "creepy".
@KrakenAttackin kind of... there is the female privilege (never saying much and always playing being a good girl no matter how crooked underneath it).
The lying with insistence they are right is the trouble. As far as men go, there are very ill intentioned ones out there.
@NoLookingAtSoleil I agree that there are Ill intentioned men, but these men have been shaped by experiences and prior interaction with women. This does not excuse bad behaviour with good women, but I would advance that women who dress and tease like this are not good women.
@KrakenAttackin erm/hmm... I don't find it too relevant - the teases you can see (and ignore if there is no sexual interaction).
I guess I don't care enough about the topic 🤷
Ugh well I try to not pay attention to people in public cuz like for example if someone was checking me out I don’t wanna know 😂 that’ll make me feel self conscious. But yea for some reason I tend to think bad when people stare or check me out so eh I dont like it.
And that makes you CREEPY!!!
If u don't want attention, stop doing things that guarantee attention. It's like a guy going to a strip club and complaining that the women are naked 💁🏾♂️
@Omario2049 Calm it. She’s 15.
Holy shit I didn't realize her age. OMG 😩🤦🏾♂️
I don't know how to feel about it... In the moment it boosts my ego in some weird kind of way, but remembering it later makes me feel like I'm just a body not a person
You feel sexy with those eyes on you?
wearing a bikini or a short sexy dress and having men and boys look isn't bad... it's definitely flattering... i always like the guy who's with his girlfriend sometimes she let's him look sometimes she hits him.
I don’t mind as long as they are creepy about. I check out guys at the beach too just don’t sit there like a perv.
I don’t mind as long as they are creepy about it? Really? You like the creepers?
Yes, I can tell when a guy is checking me out whether it's in a bikini or not. You can actually feel his stare up and down the back.
Yes, I can tell. And, I'd be a liar if I denied that I felt flattered sometimes.
It depends on how they are looking at me, and way that are looking at me, I check men out I look at them they notice I wink at them and leave it at that
They stare like hungry dogs on a piece of ham. I know if I would gain 30 kg no one of them would stare at me, therefore I don't know what should I think about their behavior.
I find it flattering if its a glance or a slightly longer look no matter how the person is physically but if they get creepy or handsy its just wrong.
It’s kinda creepy tbh, but then again I don’t wear it just to wear it so I don't know it’s a mix? Just a bit more on the creepy side if I just don’t find the guy cute..
It’s flattering I guess but I still don’t rlly like it. I don’t notice this type of thing in the first place unless it’s super obvious and direct but if by chance I did, I’d probably just move away
Personally no I do not, but I already know it’s going to happen anyways
I can see how it's always weird feeling like someone's always gonna be looking at you. I remember I just frickin sat in the gym and girls playing basketball stop and look. Girls on either side of the court also sitting (back in HS by the way) taking a quite the long ganders and I know because at first I was making eye contact with all of them but in this weird swoop as may eyes caught too many of them looking I lost my game and grabbed my books and left. It gets overwhelming and invasive at times and thats just for me and I think I'm fairly average looking so
I don't like it when a guy just stares at a pretty girl, I would think it makes the girl feel uncomfortable!
I had a girlfriend who loved wearing barely there bikini's by the pool and getting everyone to look at her. It was a little weird if you ask me.
If you don't want male attention, put some clothes on.
Well us pretty girls get attention even if we’re not naked.
Let's be honest shall we...
Girls really like it when guys are checking them out no matter what the outfit is..
... ONLY IF THE GIRLS FINDS THE GUY (S) IS/ARE CUTE.
For the rest of other guys, it's CREEPY.
No. They hate it. They hate attention and anything that magnifies their sense of self importance and uniqueness.
@yofuknutz
I don’t bother arguing with most of these feminists. Collectively they’re a dumpster fire. Running around complaining how oppressed they are because some guys legs took up more space on the subway then they thought should have been taken up and acting as if men cat call to bitter and usually morbidly obese lesbians.
@yofuknutz Or maybe acquire some class and you’ll find everyone will stop shitting on you? What a joke.
The tired old ass “feminazi” narrative you like to spew indicates you’re just another one of those MGTOW brow-beaters that’s broken beyond repair.
Go ahead and run back to your knitting circle where you get to complain about how you’re such a victim of feminism and diversity.
Disproportionately angry and nerve stricken, much?
Yes because only you fucknuts can get stinkier and gnarlier with these epithets. Don’t get mad when you reap the consequences. Whatever, die on that hill if you want to.
Only men could oppress women for thousands of years, then turn around, put on a dress, and complain that they are the most marginalized group in society.
Because we all know accountability is a man’s kryptonite.
Oh
They won’t check me out, they’ll witness my banana rolls 🙈
No, it makes me feel really uncomfortable - half because it's weird as fuck and half because I'm insecure.
@SamFromFL I don't know... a new face & body would be great.
@SamFromFL I have BDD so it changes daily.

It depends on the guy. If it's my boyfriend, I would love that. If it's some random guy, I would not like it at all.
