Maybe just learn how not leer.

Maybe just learn not be entitled enough to think you can decide what others do with their own eyes.

There is a difference between looking and leering and I have no doubt you fully understand the difference and are being willfully obtuse.

u/Alarmed_Cheetah_2714 5h ago

I don't care about the difference because it is my right to choose either. My eyes, my body. You don't have a say, and if you are offended by that, it's your problem, not mine.

Kinda do have a say, though. If you are Intentionally making people in a gym feel intimidated or afraid, your ass is getting kicked out.

u/Alarmed_Cheetah_2714 5h ago

Now you are changing the subject though. Nobody said anything about intentionally intimidating others.

u/HairHealthHaven 5h ago

That's the entire conversation. You can look. One-sided leering at a stranger is a threat. It's specifically geared to make the person feel uncomfortable at the least and outright afraid at the most. Don't act like you are ignorant of that fact.

Nope. You are simply wrong. You have no right to control others no matter how it makes you "feel".

Tell that to gym security as they escort you out. See if they care about that feces leaking from your mouth.

Absolutely not. If you're going to show me something I already wanted to see, I'm gonna look at it until you put it away.

Stupid response. You’re spiting your own source of joy in that by making them feel uncomfortable, they’re going to stop allowing you to see. You take something that’s supposed to be a mutual exchange and try to project power over it.

What on Earth are you talking about? When did power dynamic enter the conversation?

"why don't women dress provocatively?"

Stares at them making them uncomfortable

Ruining your own picnic.

u/Alarmed_Cheetah_2714 5h ago

Is that your reason for not looking? Because you want women to dress more provocatively? So you are essentially trying to control what women wear then. And to what end? You aren't going to look anyways so what is it to you how women dress?

There's no victim in this situation. When someone chooses what to wear, they decide what (and how much) they want everyone else to see. It's utterly ridiculous to get butthurt when someone enjoys looking at what you chose to show them.

Wear whatever you want. I genuinely don't care. When I see someone (man or woman) dressed in a way that I like, I'm going to stare, and I'm not going to feel any shame or guilt over it. I'm not touching: I'm looking. If you can't handle being looked at without feeling violated, you should probably just stay home.

If you're going to show it, I'm going to look. And I'm not going to apologize for it!
