I'm going to throw this out there, but I'm sure hank was exagerating.

BUT

if a super hot guy makes an inappropriate comments, or acts like a doosh, there are women out there who will eat it up and come back for more.

Yes, it's a humorous exaggeration, but the above quoted is the important part. (add "in their eyes" to the end if it isn't clear yet)

Women don't determine creepy by what someone does, they really do as StuckOnYou stated his sister does. They decide whether they like the man, then everything is tinted through those glasses.

Like the guy? He's just a little eccentric and has an off-color sense of humor.

Don't like the guy? He's a fuggin huge creep with a terrible sense of humor who needs to get the fack away.

Yup, have seen that many times. And many guys will forgive a hot girl her bad manners and selfishness.
That's why I like to ask some hard questions in OC before the 1st date, since it's easier to close somebody hot before meeting her

Hank- I think you are a little off.

I meet plenty of good looking men, and once they say 5 words my stomach turns and i make this face:

there are a lot of women that put up with bad behavior from a man- i'm not one of them- but it happens.

BTW, your exageration wasn't all that humorous- sexuall a.s.$.a.ult rarely is.

Ladies, what things do guys do in generic social settings that leave you uncomfortable? Not on a date, but when doing social things as a group. New guy shows up, does whatever activit(ies) the group is doing, and leaves you uncomfortable. Nothing overt, like unwanted touching, kissing, or even getting into personal space. What might a guy do that leaves you feeling ‘uncomfortable’?
A number of things have been mentioned already that I agree with. I would add just generally using foul language. It makes me uncomfortable when someone constantly needs to use the F-bomb or other colorful words every time they open their mouth. I prefer for people to express themselves in a way that shows they are intelligent enough to be descriptive without being vulgar.

This use of foul language sometimes goes with the attitude of "I don't care what people think of me" -- which is probably not true. I do care what people think of me to an extent, and I would be very embarrassed to be with someone in a group who felt the need to talk like this, despite knowing how others feel about this language.

There is a guy at work that always talks to you with his hands fumbling around in his pockets. It is just kinda strange. I didn't actually noticed until a bunch of ladies here pointed it out. Now I find it creepy.
There's a janitor at work that hangs out for hours at his storage closet, right beside the women's washroom. He lurks there making comments to women going in and out sometimes. It's so icky.

I know that's not the same as a social setting, but your post totally reminded me of him.

I have also seen someone doing the pocket fumbling too. It is creepy because it makes you wonder what their hands are up to in there.

I agree with this- I think some of us can pick out a troll really fast because there is something just a little "off" on their posts.
I'd love some instruction in how to recognize what is off in a post. I agree that sometimes it's pretty obvious, but other times I'm not so sure I see what people are finding so offensive.

And yes, FWIW, I'm actually asking...

The lady that brought it to my attention said he was so up in the works that he was def scratching his junk. I think it is a total deal though, he is missing teeth and the ones that remain lead me to believe the others fled for their safety. We won't speak of the odor.

Thank you for not telling me. There are some things I am very okay not knowing.
