    People who know me, know I am not intimidating. But I have realized that based on my size and lack of facial expressions in public I can come off that way.

    Not intimidating but I've heard that I am by lots of people recently. Probably because I give dirty looks to every guy I see. /shrug

    I used to work security, so when I need to look intimidating, I absolutely can. Also, my personal style (not shown in photos) isn't the most 'welcoming', so I've heard. Add my tattoos to the combo and apparently I'm seen as more intimidating than not, even when I'm not trying to be.

    But then again, when I'm actually angry... I start sweating. My jaw gets taut. I bite my lip and clench my teeth. I frown. My face turns red. And that's before I even open my mouth. So I'd say yeah.. I can definitely be intimidating.

    On line, though? Nah. Not here at least. On other sites I've been openly opinionated and it's come to my attention that I seem like the kind of person you can't argue with because I have that 'no, I am right and I will have the last word' kind of attitude. Heh. Who knew.

    I don't think I'm intimidating at all. It's the quiet ones you have to worry about.

    I was told that I intimidate people at work. Not in a physical sense, but rather in that I can apparently make people feel stupid, inept, and incompetent with a glance. And look out if I open my mouth.

    I've taken care to try to not do that since I was made aware.

    But you know, sometimes people really are stupid, inept, and incompetent.

    Normally, I'm about as intimidating as a baby Koala. But mess with my kids in any way, and I start to resemble more of a rabid screaming Koala with an M-15 in paw. To say I'm protective of them would be just a slight understatement, I think.

    More so than I would think. My husband's boss was telling him to save a date for a company party, and husband told boss to call "my wife so she can put it on the calendar." Boss said "I'm afraid of your wife."

    What????

    I didn't think I was until at work a few years ago, this guy played a prank on my wife (something harmless, I don't even remember what it was) and she told him she was going to tell me (we worked at the same place) and he freaked out and asked her not to. He avoided me for a week and every time I did see him, he had 2 other guys with him.

    I am totally non-intimidating ... UNLESS you mess with my wife or kids. Then I can become one of the most intimidating people you could ever meet. I am guess that is probably the case with most parents. LOL Momma/Pappa Bear Syndrome

    I've always been shy and reserved, but i've been told i'm intimidating. made no sense to me at first, but over the years i've seen it in action and i think i get it now.

    it's like this: i don't naturally open up and talk to people--i generally keep to myself and don't say much to ppl i don't know. right there is a reason for some (stupid) ppl to assume that there's something wrong with me, like an i have an aggro attitude or am judgy.

    add to that when i DO open my mouth, i frequenly sound like a college professor. (can't help it. you instill in a young child a lifelong love of reading and you will end up with an adult with a huge vocabulary. thanks, mom!) Frequently, (stupid) ppl will think that the only reason someone would use "big words" is to be a stuck-up b___ and try to make others feel self-conscious about their intelligence.

    thus, you see a decent-looking, skinny, quiet girl that nobody wants to talk to. for no damn reason.
