I am 19 years old and would consider myself an attractive girl. But almost every single day, I have 30-70 year old men who will wink at me, whistle at me, even come up to me and ask my name, how old I am and even personal things like if I'm a virgin or not. I don't like it at all, I am not flattered in any way and I feel like I am being harrassed on a daily basis. People tell me it's my fault because I wear cute clothes (NEVER hotchie, though). I dress nice and classy and feel like I should be able to dress how I want without having to put up with the dissrespect I get from older men. Do any other girls my age out there deal with this? And what do you do about it? I have quit several jobs to get away from harrassment and now I am getting it at school! Any serious advice out there?

Are you curvaceous? I've found that older men love young women with big chests! Mine wasn't huge, but I still got unwanted attention for older men (the worst was a 40-something cop who pulled me over just to talk to me. I was pretty scared by that!). It's not you, sweetie. Don't worry about it. Be yourself and stand up to the pervs. Tell the agressive olde guys to f*ck off and not bother you. Don't quit your job because of unwanted attention - report it and get the jerks fired!! Hold your head up and don't let them get you down. You can't help it if you are hot, right? :)

particular, you probably did deserve this. "following a youthful woman with the aid of her being pregnant" is coercive and predatory. No, you may't get you funds decrease back. It develop right into a contemporary which you gave her out of your Christian concern for her wellness and the wellness of her baby. you need to document a lawsuit, yet you will no longer win. the toddler is the flesh and blood of the dad and mom, and their rights to advance their baby are secure via the regulation to evade human beings such as you from procuring infants from youthful, naive mom and dad. The $10 grand which you invested on your scheme to purchase their toddler is a contemporary below the regulation. I doubt that they performed this out. They did what all mom and dad do. They fell promptly in love with THEIR son the 2nd they observed him. that is not any longer a risk to evade that - no rely how heavily you "persist with" somebody or how lots funds you supply them. that is mom nature. that is how we've survived as a species.

I got the same thing at your age and I still do as a matter of fact. It's the price you pay for being better than average looking. I guess it beats being homely. LOL

Try to avoid places like this. Dont wear short skirts, seriously tight jeans or really short skirt or tight shirts with lots of cleavage unless you are going somewhere where there is only people your age.

I used to have that problem at your age. Time to dress more conservatively. Not old lady, just cover up a little more.

wow, where do you live??? that is awfully extreme. the only thing I can tell you is that if people harrass you at work, sue them. complain to human resources. women should be able to go to work without having to be considered eye candy or fluff - that really irritates me.
other than that I don't know... give them the finger or stand up for yourself by telling them they are gross, dirty pigs who could be your father.
don't ever apologize for how you dress girl!

Rather than quitting those jobs why not sue for sexual harassment and make some money off of their sleazy butt? I'm just saying...
