Reply #228: So where do you think that comes from?

You mentioned down thread that men will completely ignore a more beautiful woman showing an acre of cleavage but will harass you. Appearantly this happens a lot??? Do you have any idea why these previously sane respectful men decide to harass you? I'd really like to understand. I should think if they leave these other women alone it's not ONLY that they are beasts who can't control themselves. I'd honestly like to understand that.

Edit to add that I apologize if my question is worded ackwardly. I really am not making any sort of sideways accusation. I just think you might be able to shed some light. :)

BTW - I also saw downthread you mention that no attention from strangers is OK for you. That I understand. Some people just feel safer with people they already know, or that someone they know introduces and I totally get that.

My best friend's husband was a complete and total stranger when they met at the grocery store. 21 years and 5 kids later they are still like newlyweds! :)
