| I'll be 38 in a month and I still get hit on although not as much as I used to when I didn't have a ring on my finger. |
| Am I the only one getting catcalls and flirty vibes from homeless men? Haha! |
| Am 41 with two kids and I still get hit on. |
| If you aren't getting hit on, just hang out with older men. Go stake out the nursing homes, they will be all over you. It is all a matter of perspective. |
I think is probably true, but how in the hell is it supposed to make anyone feel any better? Except the old guys, of course. |
| I am 41 and a size 18. I still get hit on, pretty much daily, but not by white men (I am white). African American and Latino men love my bod. I was walking to my bus stop early in the morning and a sanitation worker literally bellowed to me from down the street, "Hey, are you married?!". Talk about getting to the point! |
I'm very plus sized 26, and get hit on all the time

| I have always hated getting "hit on" from construction workers and other strangers. I find it offensive and uncomfortable. (It's different when you are single and in a bar or at a party and you are actively looking to meet someone.) So frankly, I like having a wedding ring and kids around as a way to send out a vibe that I'm not a sex object. I don't mind if men are respectfully friendly, but I'm kind of glad that at age 49 I'm hit on less than I used to be. |
| Some women just have it, no matter what their age. I used to take my 75 year old grandmother out for walks in her wheelchair and old guys would hit on her. |
I completely agree. It's all about attitude. I think I give off a "stay the f*#! away from me, I'm busy and in a hurry" vibe. The only times I get hit on are when I'm on vacation or celebrating the end of some big project at work - i.e., when I'm relaxed and happy - regardless of my size or age. |

I get "Hey Mamacita" a lot. DC is 8mo old and I take him everywhere using public transportation. It's getting old and annoying now...
Guys assume I speak Spanish for some reason... Bleh! |

There are some very personable homeless guys in this city! The one outside my office greets me every morning and afternoon with "good morning, beautiful" or "good evening, beautiful." It's kind of sweet.
Like other PP's, I've also noticed that black dudes really "like my show" as one of my friends would say. I'm white, athletic build rather than curvy, and the black guys have always loved me and flirted heavily with me. I generally date white guys, but it is definitely flattering and some of the guys have become good friends. |
This must be me, too. I can't remember when I was last hit on, and I'm still fairly attractive (in my 40s.) Guess I'm in mom mode or professional mode pretty much all the time (and not sure I want to be hit on.) |
definitely agree with this. some women just have a presence, no matter how old or chubby. |
this is me as well, most of the time. I usually walk with my head down, slightly slumped because I'm carrying one of 3 kids plus assorted stuff. There's nothing inviting or sexy about my posture. I notice I have a totally different reception from men when i stand up straighter, soften the look on my face, make eye contact, walk with confidence, saunter, etc. It also has a little to do with what I'm wearing but much more with how I'm carrying myself. Unfortunately, I'm generally in pack-mule mode and completely absorbed in just getting from place A to place B. |
