I think it's more about how you act really, although of course wearing a skirt that's little more than a wide belt would undoubtedly get you some attention! But flirting isn't about what you wear IMO.

Truly? So wearing provocative clothing isn't flirting? What about the way you walk (e.g. swaying hips) or if you stare at someone slightly longer than usual? I got told tucking my hands into my back pocket or just hooking my thumbs into my front pocket is flirting. [img]graemlins/erm.gif[/img]

Just walking down my street (which is a pretty respectable place where hookers do NOT hang about) in jeans shirt and jacket, some guy in a lexus (whom I thought needed directions) rolled down the window and went,

"Williamson street, know it?"

me: "no, sorry."

him, "are you looking for business?"

me, "no"

him, "How much would it cost me to have you, give me a figure."

me, "no really. I'm not looking for business, I've got to go." and I start walking away.

he shouts after me, "do you have a number I can contact you on?"

me, "no, sorry, I've really got to go, bye!" and I legged it.

Which leaves me kind of worried as to whether it's my fault this happened to me. Maybe some way I walked or just something about me?

Originally posted by Epona: Lessons? Blimey, you make it sound as if I'm a pro. I don't see anything wrong with a little harmless flirting, and it's more or less essential if you're out on the pull

aha! Being out on the pull? Does that give randonm guys about 30yrs older than me the right to grope me up when I walk past? I was tempted to stomp on their feet and protest but it seemd half the club was doing that and I didn't want to get hurt. I've never been back to that place. But I do wonder where the line lies.[/QUOTE]No, it's not your fault. Some guys just cannot keep their hands to themselves. NO-ONE has the right to touch you unless you say it's OK to. IMO you could be walking down the street stark bollock naked and it STILL wouldn't give ANYONE the right to grope you. Stamp on their toes, the repressed freaks deserve it.
