Do Girls like being stared at by Men?

Question

No! It’s kinda creepy, and it can be absolutely terrifying! Imagine if you were walking to your car from a Walmart. You notice a 6’2 200lb man staring at you. You keep walking but you look back at him and he’s still staring at you. He looks unkempt, wearing all black, with a balaclava pushed up over his eyes so the bottom rests on his forehead, so you can see his face, but as you look at him the third time, his eyes still laser focused on you, he begins to cover his face and stand up! Would you feel safe in that moment?

Most women know that while only a small percentage of men rape women, (in fact a study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2010 found that approximately 6% of men admitted to either committing rape or attempted rape in their lifetime). So most women are painfully aware that we don’t know if a stranger is in the 94% of good, decent men who would never harm a woman, of if he is one of the 6% who absolutely would!

Therefore, we have to assume, if nothing but for our own safety, that any stranger may be in that 6%, so those “innocent” staring looks… while they may not bother ALL women, they absolutely do terrify a lot of other women! Just to be a decent human being, and don’t stare at women, especially women you don't know. You have no idea what they’ve been through in their life, and since 1 in 5 women will be raped in our lifetime, why would you do something that might terrify the woman you find so attractive, that you actually want to stare at her? Now, a quick look? That's something completely different! I’ll admit that when I see a guy give me a quick look and a flirtatious smile, it boosts my ego, especially if I’m not feeling particularly attractive that day.

But please, just stop staring. Those women who don’t mind it, will still appreciate a quick look and a flirtatious smile, but you will immediately stop terrifying those of us who genuinely do believe that when we see someone staring at us, that we might just be on the verge of getting raped, (or raped again!)! Remember that guy in the parking lot? Would you seriously NOT think that you're maybe be about to be mugged, or robbed, or carjacked if you saw what I described above? Well not surprisingly rapists don’t have a “rape uniform”, most don't even conceal their identity. They just target their prey, and attack. That “staring” might just be innocent lusting from a stranger, or it might be a predator stalking his next prey! The thing that truly makes it so scary to those of us who do find it disturbing, is that we cannot tell the difference between the two!

I hope this informs, and adds to the conversation.
Sincerely, Laura 🤗 🥰

Yes and No. I feel anxiety when I make accidental eye contact with someone but at the same time I want guys to notice me. But if im being entirely honest i think this is connected to seeing my female friends getting attention from guys at clubs but I never do. So it just doesn't feel nice to my self esteem. And yeah im being jelly. But anyhow those men were always either drunk over thirty or eyeing anything that wears a skirt. Im trying not to let it bother me. Dont we all enjoy some attention?

Girls may deny it, but they all like attention. Everyone likes the feeling of being desired or having others find them attractive. If those same girls who deny it suddenly lived in a world where no one looked in their direction and/or found them unattractive, their self esteem would plummet.

Women, especially in the west tend to dress for attention. Tight outfits that clearly outline their figures. You can't tell me they do that for themselves 😂

The type of guys staring matter. If it's by a guy they find unattractive, then it's considered creepy and makes the uncomfortable. If it's from a guy they find attractive, then they'll like it and find it endearing.

I'm not hating on them for that, but what I do hate on are the women that can't admit that.

I think it depends on what is the front of mind of the man and the response varies quite dramatically depending.

A man thinking 'God I love all tits' is going to get a stony annoyed face.

A man thinking 'She's really special' is likely to get a pleased smile.

If the way they look interrupts what you are doing, because it is important to you to look at them, it always seems to go down well.

Like I had a seriously itchy ear but a girl walking towards me was braless and I was trying to deal with itch and look at the same time. As she passed me she turned and jiggled her tits at me before continuing on her way. They are not above putting on little shows for you. This has happened many times.

I think it is very gentlemanly to make a girl feel good.

Depends on where they’re staring at. If they’re staring at the private areas, that’s just fuckin creepy and makes me want to throw up. If they’re staring anywhere else (like my face or something) then I’d be a bit weirded out and on high alert but generally less creeped out.

RebelinSteel · Answer

Do guys like being stared at by other guys? Sitting in the pub and a table of 4 guys are staring at you all night, as a guy how would you feel?
No one likes being stared at, the odd initial look, after that it’s rude, intimidating and intrusive.

Alice18 · Answer

It depends on what kind of look, on the guy / man of what age, where and what kind of situation. Sometimes I like it and it's cute, and sometimes I hate the person who does it.

chrissykerdock · Answer

genericname85 · Answer

they like the attention of men they find hot. but they hate the attention of any less than hot men. plus they fail to understand that the way they present themself attracts all of them, not just he pretty guys.

Anonymous · Answer

It depends on the guy and how he's staring. I would be lying if I said I don't like the attention sometimes under the right circumstances. But if he's being a creep about it, then definitely not.

Ms_Facesitter · Answer

Only when I put in extra effort to look good, like for a special occasion. Then it's nice. Other wise it's neutral or annoying.

Apple1996 · Answer

Nope not unless I've given them permission to stare at me

beefcakebradybatson · Answer

I think most non-racist white girls would like it if a handsome Brady such as I ogled them, but most broads don't really want ugly or average-looking dudes staring at them.

thearchjoker · Answer

Depends on the woman and which man is staring at her during what context

OddBeMe · Answer

I would say that’s why they wear clothes. It’s why we all wear clothes, because we want to be seen as good looking.
