To think lots of men are googling wombats?

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 Sad

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.

Googling wombats caught my eye. Not what I was expecting Wink

WhataRacquet · 11/09/2015 21:17

I don't understand one word of this thread Confused

ShatnersBassoon · 11/09/2015 21:20

That lady with small tittayz doesn't like it when her friend Constance googles wombats. So she goes zorbing. It's quite clear.

TenForward82 · 11/09/2015 21:21

shatner I just hurt myself laughing

Oysterbabe · 11/09/2015 21:22

Can someone tell me what googling wombats was supposed to mean and also what dragon butter is. Thanks.

TenForward82 · 11/09/2015 21:23

I think she meant "ogling pigs". No idea on dragon butter and I suspect I don't want to know...

Think I just shat myself

AnnieOnAMapleLeaf · 11/09/2015 21:25

Does anyone actually use the word "tits" or "titties"??? It smacks of 13 year old boy to me.

PHANTOMnamechanger · 11/09/2015 21:25

when people say 'never google dragon butter', listen.

I didn't and am forever scarred by the memory

TheIncomparableDejahThoris · 11/09/2015 21:27

Street harassment is shite.

TenForward82 · 11/09/2015 21:29

Tits seems a pejorative to me.

FarFromAnyRoad · 11/09/2015 21:29

It IS Samantha Brickface isn't it?

AnnieOnAMapleLeaf · 11/09/2015 21:29

Oyster You do not want to google dragon butter. Or blue waffle for that matter

IPlayBass · 11/09/2015 21:29

LidlSoph, are you quite shy and reserved? I asked because I have a friend who is like this, not only is she very quiet but her body langiage screams insecurity and lack of confidence and I think some men view her as vulnerable because she has had obscenities shouted at her, been flashed, followed home.. She isn't ugly but not gorgeous either, I think dickhead men are just praying on what they see as her weakness. Maybe it would be a good idea to work on your confidence? Having said that, you shouldn't have to change the way you are because of these twats. But then if you are lacking confidence, it would benefit you to have more anyway.

msgrinch · 11/09/2015 21:30

Pretty sure I just wet myself laughing.

AnnieOnAMapleLeaf · 11/09/2015 21:31

Yes it does, Ten. I can understand hecklers on the street using the term, but I find it odd that the OP would refer to her breasts in such a derogatory manner.

Oysterbabe · 11/09/2015 21:34

I did google dragon waffle. (Or did I ogle it?)
Whilst on the subject of such things, don't read The Doritos Story..

msgrinch · 11/09/2015 21:37

Why? why not the doritos story? Stop me before I Google.

Oysterbabe · 11/09/2015 21:40

You'll regret reading it. I read it a year or so ago and it still randomly pops into my head and makes me feel sick.

MyCatIsABiggerBastardThanYours · 11/09/2015 21:40

Well, i've read the OP twice and all the responses and whilst I can agree that men calling out is bloody irritating and twatish (and thus i put those men inthe twat box and ignore)...

I have no fucking idea what the googling wombats bit is about! Confused

Hi, no I'm not usually very reserved or why. I have a good, confident posture and I get on well with men in general.

As for all these funny terms, sorry I've had a few wines this evening. The titty thing is a regular though, I usually say that.

TenForward82 · 11/09/2015 21:43

Annie, I read it as a pejorative against big breasts, maybe?

PHANTOMnamechanger · 11/09/2015 21:45

does OP mean 'googling wombats' as an insult ie like saying 'leering dickheads', rather than they are actually googling wombats?

or is wombats code for tits and shes saying most men google tits?

CassieBearRawr · 11/09/2015 21:49

Threads like these are the reason I stick around here. Top bantz. Although I'm disappointed that this thread promised wombats which it could not deliver.
