I am really tired of skeevy men.

Okay, this post has been in the back of my mind for quite sometime, however, I figured posting it would merely be stating the obvious.  Yet, now it has reached the point where it will be more like a mini rant rather than a blatant statement of what most women would agree to.

I dislike skeevy men.

I enjoy meeting new friends who share some similar

Comments

Gawd, I can understand how annoying this is. Often, I've felt the urge to delete some interactive accounts of mine because I get requests or weird mails/messages from unknown guys who "just want to get to know you better". I even got the odd requests from men who are like, twice my age >_< Ugh. I either ignore their messages, or if they keep visiting my profile/page, I just end up blocking them.

Anyways, I guess this could be useful to you:
Go to the Admin Console and type in ban_set username [replace username with the person's username]. Then click the button thingy, and that said-member will be completely banned from your LJ, meaning that s/he won't have any access to your posts, whether public or not.

Skeevy men suck! I can not stand men who stare and make inaproriate comments and just give you the heebeejeebee's (sp?)!

Your not alone. All women suffer from skeevy guys. We just have to make sure we protect ourselves and teach younger women how to avoid skeevy guys.

You can't avoid skeevy guys, they are everywhere. What you have to learn to do is ignore them or deflect them depending on the situation. In most cases you can just ignore skeevy guys, these are the ones that contact you online or come up to you while you are out on the town. However there are skeevy guys you can't just ignore sometimes, these are co-workers, classmates, and other people that you will have to interact with on some level on a regular basis. These people who just have to ignore the skeevy stuff and try to act professional. I personally have found that these skeevy guys are looking for a reaction from girls, either good or bad they don't care as long as they know you are noticing them. I have found that pretending to be totally ignorant of their actions and not reacting at all eventually gets boring for them and they stop. Sometimes, the really bad ones escalate because they think that they need to be more agressive, but once they move beyond staring at your boobs instead of your face while you are talking you can start

Thank you for the good advice. So far I haven't had a situation that escalated so far that I had to take serious action, but there was a guy last fall that I had to report to my professor because I was in a studio class with him, and rode a bus home with him, so I couldn't exactly avoid him. When I ignored him his comments got worse, to the point where people around me started to get worried for me. He doesn't bother me anymore, thankfully, (I think the professor may have said something) but I will keep up my guard.

Of def can't completely avoid them but its always worth a good try. Guess even though i know better I can be a bit idealistic in my hopes that skeevy men can be avoided. I've had my fair share of the experience with the Skeevy ones.
