@Aunt Bea do you know if I just posted a duplicate thread on this topic? If so post it and I will direct others there. Total accident if I did.
Your story made me remember once when driving with my late husband (he was respectful enough to not gawk at other women in my presence at least) on the sidewalk a woman in white jeans was walking by, she was a striking lady and anyone would have noticed her. My husband, out of guilt - who knows?) says to me "Ohhh Mama, we need to get you some white jeans like those!" I had to laugh because there was no way IMy wife, always a well endowed lady, was turning heads at the age of fourteen. At the Tottenham Lido open air swimming pool in North London that my friend and I used to go to, that teenage young woman walked past. About a year later she admitted that she had overheard the remark that I had made to my friend, then added that I was lucky not to be within slapping distance. The remark?
"She's almost wearing that bikini!" (The reminisce still makes me blush.)
It's curious, what some fellows would describe as: "Wow!" The lady might say: "Does my backside look big in these jeans!" Have you ever seen jeans cut off so short that ample butt cleavage is hanging out? Do they think it's sexy? To me, sexy is subtle, more implied than seen, unless she's 14 and I am 18 and she's wearing an itsy-bitsy, teenie-weenie, yellow polka-dot bikini.I had to laugh because there was no way I was going to look that good in those pants, I was just glad he mixed me in with that vision of his![]()
I was talking to my oldest son about this sort of thing, women exhibitionists' and if he instantly had lude thoughts, He laughed and said.It's curious, what some fellows would describe as: "Wow!"

This doesnt have anything to do with pickup lines.My wife, always a well endowed lady, was turning heads at the age of fourteen.

We often run off topic in threads and that's absolutely fine. I see you've only been here a week, so maybe you didn't know thatThis doesnt have anything to do with pickup lines.

Is it fine when men post objectifying women? Maybe it shouldnt be normal. Maybe women need to speak up and not allow posts to steer into the gutter.We often run off topic in threads and that's absolutely fine.

Sometimes first reactions are deceiving, and you get turned off. I've been guilty of that in my younger days. I've found out some of my best acquaintances or friends have been people I've give them or they given me a second chance. Sometimes first meetings are awkward, and things don't always come out as you intend. If I went by first impressions, I never would have met my husband. I'm glad I didn't.Assuming you've already met each other and you're now engaged in a conversation, think of something that is complimentary to say, like "you have such a nice way about you," or "you seem so genuinely friendly," etc. - but be sincere. She already knows how she looks, so avoid telling her she's beautiful - even if she is.
You should be able to tell by her reaction if she is receptive or not. Then you can decide if this is a time to casually suggest that the two of you go out for an ice cream or lunch some day. [a daytime date is less intimidating and lower pressure than a nighttime date] or if it might be better for you to wait on that until you have seen her a bit more and she is more comfortable around you.
That's one reason not to rush in. I'm not looking for anyone, but if I was, it would be highly unlikely for me to suggest anything on a first meeting.Sometimes first reactions are deceiving, and you get turned off.
