Really? asked in Social ScienceGender Studies · 10 years ago

Men 26+, do you enjoy being checked out by women?

... is it an ego boost? Will you respond differently if the female is attractive (in your opinion) or unattractive? Younger or older get a different response? Or is it annoying and uncomfortable and make you think less of the female ogler?

    I used to be a bit overweight, and when women checked me out (I'm still good looking @ 40) I would be self conscience about my outer appearance. I lost some weight and now when women check me out, I feel like they are appreciating me in the some of the same way guys appreciate women.

    It is definetly a confidence and ego booster to be "checked out" at any age!

    I'm an average looking guy so I really don't receive many looks. Often, I don't even notice if a woman is doing such a thing. The last time I caught a woman doing that was a casual friend of mine. She did an eyes down and up scan of me when I first talked to her in the evening.

  • Honey - reverse those two numbes, and you've got me - 62 going on 16. Yes - it's an ego boost. I'm pleaed that my slim and fit old body is still OK to some....

    Mind you - my daughter walked in on me as I was slipping on a pair of shorts - and I jokingly said , "Oh, well, Nice Asset!". She said - "Old Asset!". (sobs).....

    REALLY- Well me being a Black male is somewhat assuring. We are said to be the ones who get better looking with age the best. So I always get compliments from young and older Women. And they always

    tell me I look younger than my age. Yes, life is good.

    yes. its usually flattering & nice. if a girl that i have no interest in is trying to get my attention, then it can be annoying or awkward. but if its someone just taking an admiring glance & leaving it at that, then its very flattering & nice.

    It's annoying because they never, EVER EVER say anything. If procreation was left to womankind we'd be extinct.

    Usually, but then I usually enjoyed it when I was under 26 as well. It's nice to be appreciated.
