"Jeepers, creepers..."

[xoder]

I was talking with faerykat and I realized that I've never really been ogled. I mean, there was one time I was at Vertex, and this very drunk 40+ lady (at the time, twice my age) called out, "Hey tall stuff!" very thickly, but I don't think that counts. What is it like? Is it always negative? How do you know? Do you have a notable ogling story (as either the oglee or the ogler)?

I tend to be oggled by older guys at cons. I notice that I am oggled by them after they hit on me. Which is okay as they are very good at taking "No thank you, I don't fuck people over 35 but I love to flirt with anyone especially if they are doing their PhD in something interesting.". I oggle people a lot. I try really, really hard to make it so they don't notice unless I am at a con or some other space where the interaction rules between people are a little looser and the sleaze enforcement is a little higher. I also tend to oggle women a lot and I have a breasts/hips thing and I figure women have enough guys looking at their breasts and not being discreet about it I should at least be polite and try to look at their eyes. Also, because I assume they are straight and thus not interested in me. (I have a pattern of falling for straight women. And I figure, better to be friends than them thinking I am a sleaze. I even have on straight friend who I flirt with. It is cute.) I don't really oggle men as much. Unless they are tall, scrawny things with lots of hair. And I try to be discreet about that large public places because they usually seem to be taken.
