women who stare

I had two women stare at my nether regions or belly area or...? Today so many times it was out of hand. Like I actuallychecked to see if there was a stain. I work retail. I'm not done losing weight. I'm a comfortable size 8. I had on jeans and a tank top layered with a medium fitted tee. I don't get it. It has been happening a lot. Women checking me out in a completely non sexual yet obvious and obnoxious way. I don't remember this happening before. I hate it.

    Were you at work when this happened? If so, there is really nothing you can do except ask a co-worker to check you out to make sure you are not showing something..like camel toe..ugh..sorry.

    But, if not working, just politely go up and ask them what's up. I would, but I am a pretty confrontational person, can talk to just about anyone about anything.

    I would hate it too..good job on the weight loss!

    Welcome to the world of being envied...... Have a look an see what 'type' of women are staring at you. I get it a lot also, and I honestly don't want to sound up myself but it's mostly either skinny/pretty girls that are threatened by me or bigger girls that want to be the same size. Don't get offended, although it is extremely creepy think of it as a backhanded compliment.
    just my opinion though..
    Sorry if I haven't helped!

    Well, it's worth asking :wink:

    I think women size each other up a lot, comparing themselves with other women. My guess is they are thinking you have a great figure, and are a bit envious. :ohwell:

    I kind of thought of this then I was like...wait. I'm not grossly skinny or like freakishly tiny so I kept thinking they thought I looked weird or idk?!

    B*tches wiil be b*tches, that's all I can say lol. I'm just give them an overly sugary sweet smile the next time they looked at me.....or a confrontation, but then girls don't usually physically fight out their differences like a lot of guys haha. But that's just something I might consider.
  • Well how was there face? You do look attractive. Maybe they think that you were beautiful or something? I have no idea why they would be staring at you.. Your not fat or anything.. o.o

    I used to have guys always look at my stomach sometimes girls too. I really hate that part.. That is why I try to wear very long shirts to hide that and sometimes when I buy those they seem to shrink in the dryer lol And aren't long anymore

    yep. I can honestly say I don't do it and have always hated when it was done to me the difference today was they were doing it over and over like they couldn't stop looking. Like take a pic it would last longer looking.

    maybe they wondered if the rug matched the drapes. But it was just a lil side clip. Like a tiny section. Ahaha
  • LOL! I had to read that again! I truly thought that you were talking about drapes on a window and the carpet on the floor! Hahahaha

    I have never knowingly stared at another woman's crotch.

    Sometimes, if they have REALLY BAD cameltoe, it's hard not to look for a second, but the only time I stare at a crotch if it is a man with something obviously impressive there, and even then I try to be subtle.

    A size 8 is a good size. The only thing I can think that would cause a stare would be if your clothes fit badly, or a cameltoe, if you dressed around a muffin top.
