When someone looks you up and down?
A male colleague does this and it makes me feel really uncomfortable. I don't see him doing this with anyone else. Aibu to find it rude?

Very!! Best thing to do is do it back!!! Or sort of stare at his forehead or something to make him paranoid 😁

It’s beyond rude, it’s sleazy and intrusive. Sorry you’ve experienced this
Has any other female colleague commented on his behaviour?

ChubbyMsSunshine · 15/07/2021 22:19

Agree, just respond by looking just above his eyes during a conversation.

I am very unattractive physically so think it's more him being critical.
Nobody has said anything as yet and haven't really seen him with other females.

i'd make a big thing of doing it right back at him....just so he knows you have clocked him and his behaviour

EspressoDoubleShot · 15/07/2021 22:24

Oh no, don’t be doing that self deprecating thing. He imposed and was inappropriate

FlowerArranger · 15/07/2021 22:27

Stare at his lunchbox.
If you can do so with a barely perceptible sneer, so much the better…

BlossomOnTrees · 15/07/2021 22:29

I meant that he is doing it because he most likely finds me unattractive rather than attractive. Either way, it is wrong.

YANBU. My GP did this to me last week!

Bellend101 · 15/07/2021 22:33

YANBU. It makes my stomach turn.

I was just thinking this the other day. I know a friend of a friend who I used to see around quite regularly but not so much now, and she always blatantly looks me up and down as she’s talking to me. I don’t know if she realises she’s doing it or does and simply doesn’t care that you realise. So rude.

He’s rude. Do it right back at him.

I’ve found women are the worst for doing this though.

Yes. A woman at work does it. I've always disliked her because of it. It's such bad manners.
