I had a buddy get caught because of sunglasses. We were in Bagram, getting ready to fly to a FOB. There was a cute K9 handler in the A/DACG who was also waiting for a flight. She was filling out an unbuttoned polo shirt really well, and my buddy was staring. She looked up at him and smiled, and at that point, he remembered that he was wearing clear lenses and not tinted lenses in his eyepro.

I agree, staring is creepy. But I think the broader point is that people, especially at gyms, will dress in very revealing outfits and then go online and complain when creeps stare at them. It shouldn't be surprising that wearing revealing outfits will attract that kind of attention. So maybe rather than attempting to complain the problem away, change what you can control.

Creeps will stare regardless, women can just be wearing leggings and get stared at. Should women cover up at the beach when they are wearing even more revealing clothing than the gym?

by Anonymous 2 weeks ago

So what's the line? If leggings aren't acceptable because they're tight fitting, what about skinny jeans? Must women only wear baggy full length garments in order to avoid being stared at? At the end of the day, looking at someone briefly because you think they're hot is fine. It's normal, it happens every day. Staring at someone is always creepy and will gain a negative reaction. Maybe if you don't like being told off for staring you should change what you can control.

by Keanuokeefe 2 weeks ago

Yeah, I think that's the big difference, I'm glad you agree. Honestly, it's wild. Some people will crane their necks and stare you down the whole time you're in visible distance. It's this kind of behaviour I think people are referring to when they're upset about people staring. A little glance is harmless imo, people look at each other naturally.

Sounds like you're projecting your assumptions onto what I'm saying. I'm not blaming anyone. Men and women alike should be allowed to wear what they like to gyms so long as they abide by the dress code of said gym. Outside of that if people are staring at you because you wear some revealing clothing don't be surprised. You can't control what others do, you can only control your own actions. Nobody is breaking a law by staring too long for your own comfort.

by mayertshaniya 2 weeks ago

It kinda depends on the stare. You can tell the difference between someone absentmindedly staring and you just happen to be there and someone blatantly focusing their eyes on you. When someone is just staring at you to no end it comes off as weird, creepy, and rude. Usually when someone is staring it's because they're judging you (at least in the U.S.) in fact, a lot of people make it a point to stare at others to get the idea across that they do not like you. I dress alternatively and I'm used to looks in public (quick glances) but when I catch someone fixing their gaze on me for long periods of time, I find it rude. I'm minding my business, now you mind yours.

by Anonymous 2 weeks ago

In a lot of people's experience staring can be a precursor to violence. It also might not be. But that's why people find it unsettling and rude.

by Anonymous 2 weeks ago

Some of us just want to feel physically comfortable actually. Especially somewhere like a gym where it's hot and someone is going to be exercising and sweating. Some of us just have a lower tolerance to heat and need to wear shorts or more "revealing" clothes for comfort. Some of us literally just like how a piece of clothing looks and it's "revealing". Especially if found in the women's section, where the options are form-fitting clothing or very short/"revealing" clothes. You are not entitled to staring just because I'm wearing clothing that you think makes me look more attractive

by Limp-Muffin-6066 2 weeks ago

If you stare at someone, that's so weird, it doesn't matter whether they're covered up or wearing a revealing outfit (as long as it's still legal). Nobody cares about a glance, but really, "ogling"?

You're allowed to look. But it is understood that staring makes people feel uncomfortable, so if you do it without regard to how you are making them feel you are harassing them. If you are starting as a sexualized body part then it becomes sexual harassment.
