...by another guy?
I have noticed this often enough to think this is not a coincidence: when I am in a public place and oggling some hot guy who is obviously romantically involved with a chick, that chick very often seems to throw herself at the guy immediately with some sort of PDA - whether by embracing him, or grabbing his hand, or kissing him etc. I am wondering if this is conscious or perhaps some unconscious reaction where the "threat" is not even consciously recognised but some sort of defense mechanism instinctively kicks in, to show that the guy is "taken".
Interestingly enough, the guy is almost always completely oblivious to this.
Yes. :angry:
Yes Mart you trigger defense mechanisms in women. You're that awesome.
The verb is"ogle" not "oggle".
Yes, I tend to date pretty boys who gay guys are attracted to. I usually say, "Ooh look that bloke's eyeing you up" then covertly shove him into the ogler for a laugh the next time I go to power my nose.
What's your reaction when a man or woman ogles your boyfriend, Mart?
Insecure much Marty?

I'm jealous. Of course it happens all the fucking time. And he makes sure to point that out. :mad:

Thought that was jahuu.
Didn't he get drafted or something? Maybe they beat some sense into the kid. Or maybe he died out in the forest.
Often, and it amuses the hell out of me. :D Max never notices, but it's happened any number of times.
Some time ago, we went out to dinner one night and the server, an attractive, obviously-gay man, was incredibly solicitous of Max, while being somewhat rude and curt to me. I started laughing the third time the guy came around in 15 minutes to refill Max's nearly-full glass of water while completely ignoring my empty water glass. Max asked what I was laughing about, and I had to explain. He said, "Huh. Really?"
It doesn't bother me at all because I know that Max isn't interested in men. So, if anything, it just reaffirms what I already know: I married a hottie. :perv:
Emasculated hottie, maybe.

I forgot about her till just now. :blush:
Pretty sure that nobody, male or female, eyeballs me. I am utterly unattractive.
My wife however does attract attention, despite her obesity. Her attire is very conservative, even by HK standards. The most memorable experience was when I travelled with her by train somewhere in the US West Coast. In addition to us, there was only a fat black guy seated not too far from us. The train stopped at a station, and the guy moved to the spot right next to my wife. In an otherwise empty train car. I've also noticed that some single men tend to stare at her.
I don't feel any jealousy, because I know that she hates the attention. Whenever this happens I tend to be quite worried about our safety.

Imagine that.
Maybe he wanted her purse.

Nope. My wife is very security conscious (both her parents were senior police sergeants). If we are seated together, her handbag is always between us. There was no way someone seated on her other side could grab it. Even I could tell that the black man was infatuated with her.

That's why it leaves such a lasting impression on us. It happened 10 years ago when I was in Berkeley, and I still remember what happened vividly. I was really worried that time.
Mart--keep ogling. The guys may not notice but you're getting us nookie anyway. :P

Yeah that would confirm my observations - I wonder why women spot that and guys don't. Maybe women are more often being ogled (or at least ogled in an obvious way, as men are less subtle) and men are only "trained" in spotting a challenge from another guy, and not the fact that the guy has hots for them?
Nb, one fun part of being gay is that you and your boyfriend can ogle the same people. And discuss them. Sometimes too loudly. :blush:
I'm either completely oblivious to women checking me out or no one ever checked me out. :(

That's because women, in the natural state, are used to being sexual prey. Surprised nature hasn't developed their ocular sockets on the sides of their heads, like rabbits or deer.

I don't know about all of that. Max can just be very oblivious when he's out in public. He's never noticed when women come on to him, either, even when they're so blatant that I have to get all possessive and stuff on their asses. :mad: He always gets this surprised look on his face when I suddenly get clingy and mean looking in the same nano-second.
You think he'd be use to it by now.

Well, he does get hit on quite often, so yes, you'd think he would be used to it by now. :hmm:
I'm insanely oblivious. I was literally hit on by a gay guy about a year ago and didn't figure it out until several hours later. He was asking me if I'd been working out and stuff. Once, I was on a business trip with a lady who was post-op. I just thought she happened to look a lot like John Cleese and that was unfortunate for her. Even after she spent a couple hours telling me about her time as a Marine officer I still didn't make the connection. She's written a book about her sex change and everything.
I am pretty sure I have neither been hit on or ogled at any point.

Nobody asks me for the time of day, let alone oogle or whatever. People know better.

Girls only ask for the time in order to see how expensive a watch you're wearing.

My watch was on sale. :)
I can't remember the last time I wore a watch.
I tend not to notice getting oogled. It's been such a constant in my life I never give it any thought.

So, we're out doing some stuff this weekend and wifey wants to go to Starbucks. I hate Starbucks, but whatever. I go with her and get a water just to piss them off.
Anyway, we're in there for maybe ten minutes. It's the Starbucks at the trendy outdoor mall where the cool kids buy shit at Forever 21. This place is packed with lovely women. Although many of them were wearing flip-flops (which is what I noticed). Why the hell do people wear that crap?
Anyway, once she gets her chai and we get out the door she says, "You didn't notice any of that, did you?"
I say, yeah all the goddamned flip-flops--disgusting.
She says, no three different hott girls were totally checking me out. I'm oblivious. She's got a cheshire cat smile on her face.
I think women get off on knowing they have a dude that other women would want. So my theory is that they might get mad when they see it, but it also gives them secret tingles.
:P
I know, flip flops are an atrocity. :mad:
Feet. :yuk:
I don't see a problem with girls wearing flip-flops.
Men wearing flip-flops though.... WTF? :wacko:
Nothing wrong with flip flops.
Are these flip flops or do they have to have the between the toe thingy?

Don't think anyone said we were / I'd imagine they see more use at the beach.
I get tired of wearing heavy work boots all day at work. When I am home it is barefoot and if I have to leave the house I wear my sandals (that could potentially be called flip flops).
"Flip flops" are fine when in the confines of your home or garden, or in public settings where such casual footwear is acceptable, like the beach.
