How come older men like to prey on young innocent women?
Half of them are old enough to be my grandfather and they stare. Don't they realize that it makes us girls feel uncomfortable? And it is more natural for them to stare at women their own age and for guys our age to stare at us?I'm not saying I'm a innocent girl, I'm just clean and naive. Would that make me innocent? Wherever I go either it being to the Gym, the mall, or to a cafe men well over their 30's give me these creepy pedophile stares. I don't dress in really low cut shirts, or extremely shorts skirts, but I don't dress like a nun either. The other day, well a few weeks ago, I encountered a very creepy man at least 32 or something and I was working out at the gym on a treadmill. In fact he was working out on a bike in front of me and kept looking back every once in a while and give me these strange smiles. Anyways when I went over to the machine cleaner to spray my napkin (to clean the machine) he was behind and me and he said ''hi'' in the most creepiest way you could possibly imagine. I actually feel uncomfortable wearing the school uniform skirt coming home from school due to all the perverted stereotypes associated with wearing it. I don't dress in a 'slutty' way, just well-proportioned and put together. I've noticed this happens with many people and it's just disgusting, I could care less if it's human nature, it's just wrong to look at some young woman's thighs, chest etc. when you're older than 30.
Yes, it's human nature, but do they not realize how uncomfortable this makes us feel ?
At 31, you're most likely married. Stare at your wife, no younger woman wants a married 31-year old staring at her. It's not only uncomfortable, it's disrespectful as well.
There's a big difference in a 25 year old's maturity level, and a 31 year old's maturity level. All I'm saying is it makes more sense to stare at someone your own age.

I seriously hate it. I have a similar story about the gym. There was this dude probably old enough to be my dad and he was on the cross trainer next to me. He was giving me all these creepy looks and it just made me feel uncomfortable...he then asks me "how do i check how long i've worked out for" when it was right in front of him and he was just using it as an excuse to talk. Seriously, I just wanted to leave. It's the flipping gym, don't go there to perv on girls half your age.
But yeah, I see what you mean. I really hate it but trust me, it happens much more in South-eastern Europe compared to here in England.

It may make sense but this will never change. Men like young stuff. They know you are maybe untouched and firm. They have the mentality of a 17 year old when it comes to women and some never outgrow this. If this happens just remember they are very childish and have not matured yet.

You are probably a magnet for older men. I know lots of older guys that date much younger girls because they can easily be manipulated by a very strong, smart brain, very aggressive, take charge, take control of the situation guy. These guys can easily overide a young girls mind. Then again there are some very young girls that like much older men and get a kick out of put him thru the meat grinder, just for laughs.

It's because older men likes fresh meat and you're the target. They look and stare because that's what they want, and something they can't have either. So they fanatsize and that's when obsessions starts!

You will run into this your whole life... believe me. Guys can really be goats. They like to pick on younger women because they think that the difference in age translates to being easier to manipulate... and it often does. If someone like this actively shadows you and bugs you, and the usual "get away from me you old fogie" rebuff doesn't work... you need to talk to the Gym manager about the guy.

Because some young women like their money!!!

So let me get this straight, it's creepy when a 31-year-old guy who wants to get into your pants checks you out, but when a 25 year old guy who wants to get into your pants checks you out, that's cool with you?
Just wait until you're single and 30. You'll wonder where all those "creepy" 31, 32 year-old guys went.

lmao laura you crack me up.....
guys will always look at a good-looking girl true love as the way where you wont look at any other woman doesnt exist. if you find a girl attractive we guys will look at her every once in awhile.
AS i always say if you are not prepared to take the attention dont incite it.... therefore besides your school uniform only where pants and hoodies and guys will stop looking at you.... simple, they look at you because they think your hot, not that they want to woo you.....
one love

Actually sweetheart, 31 isn't old.
I'm guessing you're probably like 16 or something...to think that a 31 year old was old.
And wrong or not...that's reality...guys stare (all guys stare).
So get over yourself.
