Aibu to think that I should be safe from men making inappropriate comments when I am carrying out a simple task?

YANBU. I cannot BEAR the opinion of many that we should somehow be "flattered" that a Man has bestowed his attention upon us. It would just be nice to get on without worrying that someone's going to make a personal comment about your appearance.

Did you miss the memo that said as an attractive woman you are there for the entertainment and appreciation of all men the moment you step outside your door?!

Yanbu, it really annoys me (as you can tell)

That's the thing I am not very attractive!

Makes a change from some of the comments I have had before losing weight I suppose.

Just ignore them.

CommonplaceMagic · 23/05/2015 20:48

Yet another example of everyday sexism

Ignore them OP.

Thinking it is nice but these thoughts should stay in their heads! Like Squeaky though I'm a total hypocrite, if I am feeling good about myself then I like hearing it.. Confused

Yabu to generalize all men. YANBU to find this specific group of men annoying.

RubieWoo · 23/05/2015 22:15

Just filter it out

Turn the fucking hose on them Flowers

SmillasSenseOfSnow · 23/05/2015 22:33

Where the hell did she generalise all men?

CtrlAltDelicious · 23/05/2015 23:34
