[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again...[b]I readily admit I am absolutely incapable of being rude or stern or abrupt.  I just freeze[/b].  My husband is always on my case about this, in many contexts.  I wish I were different, but after years and years of trying, I just can't find a backbone.  Also, I look very young, so I think that makes it even harder for me to be taken seriously.

I admire all you DC people who are so self-assured, but what strategies can you offer a meek Midwestern girl?  I like the sunglasses at all hours thing.  Sometimes I wear a scarf over my hair--that also seems to keep people away, somehow.[/quote]

Learn. Because you are teaching your daughters to be the same way and guess what happens when some perv starts chatting up your little girl - she talks him to be nice and polite and then god forbid he tries to do more than talk.

You just don't answer these kind of people. You do not need random strange men on the Metro to like your or think you are nice.  You don't need them to care if you are rude or not. As soon as the guy commented about your hair, you should have shot him a dirty look and ignored him. If he didn't stop or moved close to you, get up and move and if no one else is no the train, get off at the next stop and wait for the next train.
