To think lots of men are googling wombats?

[LidlSoph]

Hi all,

Mostly anywhere I go, men shout crude things, stare at me, or whisper to other men and smile at me. I can't go out for a simple lunch with a friend without them reminding me men are bloody looking!

My issue is I believe I need some form of counselling, or perhaps to speak to my GP. I'm in no way creating this thread to brag, quite the opposite. I'm a poorly lady so the last thing on my mind is taking gratification from googling wombats.

I most certainly don't have big titties, I'm a bloody A/B cup! I never dress provocatively, just my usual work dresses and sensible heels at work, and I dress down of course at weekends.

I know women get sick of men talking to their tits instead of their faces, but I can't even blame it on that.

It feels really demoralising and I just feel like crawling up into a ball and never showing my face again

Am I being over sensitive? It's the Constance of it that gets me down so much. I know it's not all in my head because my own DP, friends and Mum have noticed it.

Do you mean "ogling"? For the rest, no advice, this doesn't happen to me much so clearly I have a face like an old boot.

Or maybe she meant "goggling"...? Hmm...

Tits, yes, not so much wombats. Actually laughed out loud at that one.

Some men are arseholes. Sorry

Cos you'd know about that, wouldn't you, Martin?

It doesn't matter what you look like, so thinking "I haven't even got big tits" or whatever is not the point, some men will just do this to anyone really.

I'm not sure what advice to give, it is upsetting and demoralising, and makes you feel self-conscious / angry / whatever.

Sorry from me too

Lol, why is this considered a fake thread?

On another point, the wombat thing was misused (yes I'm aware of the under ground over ground gang). Perhaps it was my poor attempt at being witty

That's a womble, not a wombat....

Oh crikey

Assuming Martin is a bloke, most guys don't understand / believe in street harassment. It's also hard with threads like this to not see them as a humble brag, tbf.

Not that I'm saying you ARE humble bragging, it's just hard to read sincerity on the net sometimes!

That's a womble, not a wombat....

I've found carrying Chocolate Hobnobs around increases the problem!

Aww I thought this thread was a really real thing about Men everywhere suddenly Googling wombats.

I imagined them Googling Wombats and being whisked to a secret internet partition where they all drink brandy and smoke a pipe.

OP

Are you feeling alright? Have a sit down and a large

Am I the only person who thought WTF is up with Googling wombats-are they on the DO NOT GOOGLE list like Dragon butter?? (DON'T Google Dragon butter urgh)

Am going to have to actually google wombats now.

I just googled wombat.

Titties, googling wombats, and don't forget poor Constance. It's a predicament indeed.

Rockermummy I actually snorted and have tears running down my face at the chocolate hobnobs. We are obviously of the same era and comic tastes.

Samantha brick, is that you?

You forgot "crawling up into a ball". Hamster ball? Football? Dance-type ball?

A Zorb, I imagine.
