    Just inappropriate comments. Don't get me wrong compliments are nice but only if they are tasteful.

    I think you could have handled the situation better. There is no reason to objectify all the men on this site because of one out two guys you can block or ignore.

    I agree. Some men can be a bad example for others on here. Myfitnesspal members shouldnt have to deal with distractions of anyone who has other intentions. Stay strong and positive to anyo man or woman trying to reach personal goals.

    Ok see that what I am talking about. Thats just rude and insulting. So bc some d-bag took my picture out of context (when I am clearly holding a purse) i brang it on myself? This is a site for health not fb, myspace, etc.

    I addition I was generalizing men I am sorry but woman arent the ones doing it so I was simply reminding the perves and if your not one of them then kudos and it doesnt apply!

    No it wouldn't help. Believe me. I have been a member on here for almost 2 years.

    I have been hit on quite tastefully on here but also have gotten some very lewd comments from guys as well.
    The tasteful comments are flattering when they are presented in the right way. And as one of the guys stated earlier, not all men here are that way. The majority of my motivational friends on this site are men BUT not one of them has disrespected me or made me feel uncomfortable.

    Not sure what they said to you, and you're right people should be more tactful. But just so the rest of us men don't get accused of being pervs, what would be the right way to approach a woman.

    No woman brings it on themselves, if the remarks are obscene, derogatory, or down right sexist. But if a guy simply ask if you are married and tries to initiate a conversation/relationship, you could politely tell them you are not interested and leave it at that.


    If they are being rude or pervs I think there is a block function on here, if not you can report then to the administrator. I’m sure you are a nice girl but making a blanket statement like you did doesn’t shine the best light on you. We all get frustrated and say things we might wish we said differently, and maybe you could have come on here and ask how to deal with guys hitting on you, instead of making it appear you think you are above anyone on this site hitting on you.


    Like I said I don’t know what they said to you, and no you shouldn’t have to put up with BS here or anywhere. And don’t ignore them either, report them if they are truly being pervs, or tell them you’re not interested and move on.

    I totally agreed with you. I have a lot of men as freinds and they are so helpful and motivate the heck out of me. I posted this not only for me but for everyone on this site.

    Maybe I'm in the wrong by saying this but although this is geared toward our healthier goals there are going to be men and women interested in one another. Its also a social site with a target! I don't think its out of line to find interest in a person on here. Shoot y'all can get fit together...but in the same breath if its something that is harassing then that is inappropriate. We make friends on here and getting a boyfriend/girlfriend on here wouldn't be that bad. If you find someone attractive use tact and be polite. If you want a booty call get on another site!!!!!!

    BTW...Love the not just another pretty face comment! Buahahahahahaaha!!!!!

    What they said.....

    BTW, OP until someone mentioned how your photo appeared, I didn't notice anything, but when I took a closer look, I realized how they could have seen things as they did.

    Until I pulled up the larger image of your avatar, by viewing your profile, I sure couldn't tell there was a purse in the photo. In the smaller image, the strap doesn't really show, and the purse blends in with the color of the door that is behind you. I realize it "obvious" to you that there is a purse in your photo, but since it is YOUR photo and you know you were holding a purse, that is what you see.

    Regardless of how your photo might be interpreted, that doesn't justify anyone messaging you with inappropriate comments. There are some very nice, supportive, yet FUNNY ( hi Roaddog--LOL) guys on here.

    Not so sure you're generalizing. We're men. We can't help it. Luckily, in these forums, I can write something, edit it, think about it, re-edit it and not come off as bad as I would in person. In person, I just stare, drool and stutter.

    I don't believe in Karma, but if I did, I would guess that's why I have three daughters. Cosmic payback.
