We don’t always know exactly how we come off to others. You might consider yourself to be super friendly, while a stranger on the bus might say you look intimidating while listening to music and wearing sunglasses. At the same time, behavior that you might consider perfectly normal may actually be making those around you extremely uncomfortable.
One curious Reddit user recently asked others to share some common things men do that come off as creepy, and women and men had plenty to say in the replies. Below, you’ll find some of the most popular responses, so enjoy reading through and be sure to upvote the behaviors you wish men would stop exhibiting as well.

Dude is no one gonna say unsolicited d**k pics? Like y’all be airdropping them. I had a guy tell me that women appreciate it cause they wanna know what they’re working with. Nobody gonna work that s**t if that’s your opening.

When they insult you once you reject them.
Tee Rat 2 years ago
Had a friend I grew up with claim every woman that turned him down was a lesbian. "Yeah, the last ten women you've talked to are lesbians."
- 2 years ago
Worst gaydar ever. On the other hand, if he had first asked their sexual orientation, then been turned down by the straight ones, he would have been forced to admit that he was turning them into lesbians. To quote feminist Gloria Steinem: “Are you my alternative?”

Yup. I’ve been on the receiving end of this by men and have seen other women do it, too. If somebody says no, they mean no! What’s the point of digging yourself a deeper hole?

I've never understood this. There's no need for it. I've been rejected a few times........it stings but you get over it. I actually asked a friend of mine from uni out once... I soon learned that she 'didn't see me that way'. It hurt, but fine. A few months later (when it didn't hurt so much) she texted me actually apologising for turning me down and to say that she was also sorry that she'd met someone. I was confused by this, and said 'all I've ever wanted was for you to be happy and if he makes you happy then that's great'. They've now been married 6 years and have two kids that I am "uncles" to. I even attended the wedding happily. She brought him to meet me once and as soon as I saw him, I knew those two were meant to be and we've been friendly ever since.

Depends if she rejects you with a put down? "I would never go out with a guy that's so short." "That's okay, because I can see now that your breasts aren't big enough for me." If she just says, "Thank you, but I have a boyfriend" then you just move on.

Telling you to smile
Multa Nocte 2 years ago
I smile when I'm amused or when I'm happy, not on command because "it looks nice when women smile."
#4
Lingering/being flirtatious when a woman is at her job. Shes smiling because she has to, she's talking to you because she has to. Yea, maybe she's into you, but the fact there's no way to really know since she's basically forced to interact with you, it comes off creepy.

When I was 19 I was a phone girl at a local pizza place. I would answer the phone and take people’s orders for carry out or delivery. One time this guy called and said he was placing an order for delivery. By the end of the order he changed his mind and said he wanted to order carry out.
The dude shows up and my coworker helps him and he says “you’re not the girl I talked to on the phone. I want to talk to that girl.” I realize he’s talking about me and I ask what’s wrong. He then tells me he thinks I have a really soothing voice and should do ASMR. I was like ok that’s weird but relatively harmless?
The guy gets his food then leaves. We can see him sitting in his car for like 15 minutes. Then he came back in the store with a map and started asking me a bunch of weird questions for directions to somewhere. I said “why can’t you just use google maps? I see you have an iPhone” and point to his phone. Then as I point I see him try to hide the screen. He had the audio recorder pulled up! This weirdo came back in the store with a thinly veiled excuse of asking for directions because he was trying to record my voice!!! It was so creepy. I told him “wait one second” and went to the back and told some coworkers what was going on. A friend of mine who worked in the kitchen, a 6’2 muscle head walked out and was like “IM GREAT WITH DIRECTIONS. MY GIRLFRIEND IS TERRIBLE AT THEM (while gesturing to me). LET ME HELP YOU!” Suddenly the guy didn’t need directions anymore.
So yeah. I’m going to say whatever that was, that was creepy.

I’m a guy but a semi-frequent bar patron. Whenever guys ask bartenders what time they get off that they’ve had little to no interaction with is incredibly creepy. Gives off “I’ll be waiting for you in the parking lot” vibes.

As a former bartender this is absolutely correct. Anyone in the service industry that feels uncomfortable walking alone to your car, ask acoworker to walk to your car with you. Trust your instinct.

Not backing off when a woman indicates in any way whatsoever verbally or physically she isn’t interested, yet they continue or think they can continue to harass you or change your mind
Leon Mendoza 2 years ago
Under risk of being downvoted to oblivion. This is still a reaction that until very recently the way for a woman to behave was to play hard to get (google it and some sites still has this as a relationship "tactic"). Men both have to learn to respect a "no" and that girls that play hard are not worth the effort of us braking our heads to figure out if is a real disinterest or a messed up behavior.

Personally I find it creepy when men insist that only unattractive men can be creepy. Not only do they assume that women only pay attention to hot guys and immediately write off the rest, but also that there's nothing wrong with their own behaviour that being better looking wouldn't fix.
censorshipsucks 2 years ago (edited)
Yep sadly this is true, at least in my experience. I regret to say it. I was a turd. But I got away with stuff and was really successful unlike my unattractive friends. Nowadays however I treat women with more respect than I do fellow men. Because I regret being a turd.

I (31, F) was walking up the stairs at a train station carrying a large suitcase the other day. A guy wanted to help and just took my suitcase from me without asking. I had to tell him 3 times I was ok and didn’t need his help. The suitcase wasn’t particularly heavy, just big. Don’t just grab other people’s stuff without asking! I know he just wanted to help but still!

I am a guy and I deliver food but I have a girls name.
Guys are always waiting outside even though it's a contactless delivery and says to leave at door and sometimes they call me before I get there and try to hit on me but you're very disappointed and confused when it's a guy
One guy harassed me one time and I Kept $70 of his food And ate it myself

I'm sometimes waiting outside my suite door or walking to the main lobby area to make sure the delivery guy isn't lost or in case he doesn't want to come up to my suite, despite using contactless. To me, contactless delivery is deemed just paying online. I don't want my food placed on the gross hallway floor.

Let’s see, recently a dude asked me for directions. It was already late? I told him, I don’t know then walked away. He almost followed me home, I had to stop at a store. He was quiet too, I went to grab water. The minute I turned around he was behind me.

Heres a list of creepy s**t men have done in the last year to me:
Following me around the neighborhood. This has happened several times. Sometimes they will stop and talk to me which leads to the next two points.
Cornering me at my car to “talk” and not letting me leave
Demanding sex from me
Inappropriate comments in general
Staring for too long
Touching in any capacity l unless we are close is bonafide creep behavior.
Showing up at my work to “talk”
Men just be out here creeping on women. Its not “all men” but men tend to excuse it when their friend, brother, cousin, etc out there creeping on women

As my wife doesn't WFH, she has to be out in the world a lot more. I'll paraphrase what she said recently:
"What the hell's with male Uber drivers and the 'You goin' to your boyfriend's house???' It's such an obvious way to open up whether I might be DTF."
Same goes with when she opens the door for DoorDash. She says there's always fishy types of small talk that weird her out, usually around her schedule and whether they've seen her at [insert shop here]. She doesn't like when some strange dude wants to time/place her. Questions like, "Hey, how's your day?" are all well and good. Friendly. But the personal stuff's gotta go.
As such, I've stopped shushing the dog when she barks at Dashers. I want them to know there's a dog that only needs the word go right behind this pretty little lady who tipped you well, sir.
censorshipsucks 2 years ago (edited)
Interestingly, this doesn't happen across social/demographic boundaries. In my country (SA) a food delivery guy or an uber guy would never dare hit on an upperclass (rich) woman. Because he'd get arrested and charged in seconds. However, unfortunately, if the woman is lower-income (meaning usually black) he will get away with it. In fact we've had MANY cases of black women being kidnapped and raped by uber drivers. Disgusting, but a result of apartheid and our unacceptable levels of patriarchy and GBV.

- Men hitting on much younger women
- men who bother women at the gym
- guys who try to give women unwanted massages (mostly shoulder rubs while they are sitting)

unwanted massages are the grossest. I only did this when I was asked to, and when she announced sexual interest I walked away.

I have a coworker. I had never met him (officially) before we started working at the same place 2 years ago. He gave me a weird Vibe from the get-go, but I just avoided him as much as I could, which was easy cause we dont have the same job at our facility. After a while he starts talking about 2 brothers that I do know, and how he was friends with 1 of them - pkay fine, a little creepy you *know* I knew them too. Then he asks when I moved from X adress where I lived with my ex? - I shut that Down, and Straight out said that was a creepy comment that made me uncormftable. I now avoid him even more at work, but a few months pass and he starts asking how Long I lived at Y adress, and that it was then I was hanging out with ‘specific group of people’. I told him how tf he knew about 2 past adresses and whom my friends were, Since I NEVER met him before?! Oh, he and that 1 brother sometimes talk about me. I have not spoken to either of those 2 brothers for 5 years. That s**t is creepy as hell
#38
Tell you their life story. I had one guy in a liquor store recently that decided to tell me what each of his tattoos meant. When he got to his kids he told me their life stories. I finally saw my excuse to get away and he grabbed my hand and kissed it. I saw him recently and I said hello but just walked in. I heard him calling me a b***h. I try so hard to be nice, but kissing my hand I can’t take.

Being hit on in the gym, this has happened to me so multiple times and even though I understand some people are just trying to 'shoot their shot', the gym should be a safe space. I come there to workout, sweat it out and go home, not to find the love of my life. I don't want to be hit on and then have the awkwardness of turning someone down to then feel like they're constantly watching me in between my sets and I can't avoid them especially as my gym is not the biggest. So it's a big no to this from me.

Advice I heard a while ago and think is both hilarious and effective: if someone won’t leave you alone, look them in the eyes, and, as deadpan and serious as you can, say something extremely horrible and specific, ex. “I will flay every inch of skin off of your body and leave you to run around in circles until you die of massive blood loss and shock,” “I will turn your skin inside out, rub you with strychnine and powdered glass, and hang you from a mancheneel tree,” “I will break every single one of your bones and then rearrange them in alphabetical order,” “I will slowly castrate you over the course of several weeks with rusty razor wire.”
#44
Dude here, I've always hated how men who you're unfamiliar with/have 0 connection to outside of being an acquaintance like a coworker just feel comfortable *touching* you. It takes alot to get under my skin, but when my coworker comes and does that weird, shoulder grip massage thing. Another saw me sitting, absent mindedly swinging my free arm and snuck up behind me and ran his finger down my palm, thought he was being funny. Like, who the f**k does that...

I read the entire thing and it makes me sad for women. At some stage we need to just do a thing where people only use dating apps and outside dating apps it is just 100% unacceptable to speak to someone, or touch them, unless you have to engage them on a work matter (obviously touch remains unacceptable). I can't see any other way.

They left one off the list: guys who try to smooth-talk you when you're clearly: 1) not interested and 2) underage. It's what I call the "Say, Mama!" routine. Some guy dressed like a superfly (Google it), mouth almost totally sparked out (gold caps), reeking of malt liquor and Old Spice, and wearing enough gold to open his own jewelry shop. "Say, mama, I just saw your fine self there and I just had to come over and say hello I ain't never seen you in this neighborhood before so what's your name sweet thang can I get your digits maybe we can go out sometime what's your address when can I pick you up......" and on it goes. If you have never had to endure this, be ever so thankful.

At some stage we need to just do a thing where people only use dating apps and outside dating apps it is just 100% unacceptable to speak to someone, or touch them, unless you have to engage them on a work matter (obviously touch remains unacceptable). I can't see any other way.

They left one off the list: guys who try to smooth-talk you when you're clearly: 1) not interested and 2) underage. It's what I call the "Say, Mama!" routine. Some guy dressed like a superfly (Google it), mouth almost totally sparked out (gold caps), reeking of malt liquor and Old Spice, and wearing enough gold to open his own jewelry shop. "Say, mama, I just saw your fine self there and I just had to come over and say hello I ain't never seen you in this neighborhood before so what's your name sweet thang can I get your digits maybe we can go out sometime what's your address when can I pick you up......" and on it goes. If you have never had to endure this, be ever so thankful.

I get an average of 3 friend requests a week on Facebook. Always from men I have never met. Just because we follow the same pages does not make me want to be your friend. I almost always respond with, "Um, no - random internet stranger I do NOT want to be your friend, but maybe my HUSBAND would like to chat". And then I block them. Literally 3+ times a week.

I'm sure that's annoying as hell, but I can't relate. 90% of my friend requests are obvious bs/spam. Don't engage at all, just block them!

I found a solution to physical touch! Threat with frying pan. Then if second time occurs, hit with said pan. If somebody is stalking you, unconscious them! Arson is a good choice too if u know their location. Or murder 😊

Huh. It appears it's my appearance and who I am as a person that I'll likely be single forever. I'm glad I didn't see anything relevant to me on the list, probably because I assume no gal is interested. If they are, I'm oblivious to their interest. Uhg.

Funny, since I shaved my head and started taking my dogs everywhere they're allowed (not even "scary" breeds, supermutts), I get a lot less of this. :D

Really showing you that you don't "give a f**k" by replying to every one here, good job Lenny! 👍😂

How do you know there are "so many sexist comments" without reading it? Isn't the assumption of sexism sexist?

Christ, every time I read one of these I thank God that I'm ugly & built like a brick s**t house, as my grampa used to say. I've never had to deal with any of this.

@wittle wenny, none of this is virtue signaling. You are just proving you dont understand the terms you use. This is not bullying. this is you f*****g around and finding out. I know the concept is hard for a mental midget such as yourself.

Awww.... is little guy acting tough from behind his keyboard because he can't handle his emotions? Is your diaper full? How the f**k is anyone "finding out" a damn thing from you? 🤷😘

Legitimate question, asking for myself: How to attract without being creepy?
Mimi M 2 years ago (edited)
Don't worry about 'attracting'. Get to know people of all ages and backgrounds as people. Including those you might be potentially attracted to. Don't treat them any differently than you would anyone else that you might be getting to know. See where it naturally goes.

The single most misandristic app around. Where's the posts about toxic women to provide balance. I've met plenty of women who overstep boundaries as well, but it can't be creepy if a women does it, behave. Stick to funny posts BP.

yeah but lets be real. There are way more dudes who are creeps than women. There are plenty of creepy women, 100% but society and social media have definitely made it easier for creepy dudes.

Do you seriously think feminists and the kkk are remotely similar? Women's rights to their own body are being taken away right now in the US and you somehow still act like men are more oppressed.

How is the man hating? It's about specific behaviors that can lead to a woman feeling unsafe. Before I even finished the list, I knew that someone would make your comment, or one like it, even though there is no indication that any of the women who responded "hate men".
