Or maybe he reads DCUM

Even better. This is one of those rare times when I was fine with “outing” myself on here just to make it stop

Unfortunately, men don’t seem to be motivated to speak up by seeing a woman growing increasingly uncomfortable and distracted from the work she cane to do. Maybe they need to fear that there will be career or legal consequences for their coworker or buddy?

Men need to fight women’s battles for them and protect them

uh, no. women don't get to expect men to do anything you want, If a woman wants something, she just doed it.

I have had guys try to do this once or twice and I just made the conversation really boring and talked excessively about my kid and pet. It made them loose interest quickly.

He keeps trying to monopolize my time because I think he thinks he's going to get some action. I find him gross (he's 15 years older), but I think he's either intentionally reading my niceness wrong or just dense. I really want to be left alone so I can network with others, but he keeps finding me.

Tell him you have a boyfriend, or interject the existence of one within the course of conversation. He'll get it.
