I think I'm becomeing a magnet for strange men

[antonia]

ROFL

Mine got even stranger now that I wear my wedding ring again. (Had the old one melted down to make it...)

The last one at the grocery store was following me, cornered me in the liquor section and wanted me to share a twelve pack of IPA with him. 

As if! 

I mean, that's like WAY too many carbs.   What was he thinking?

I was a bus driver for many years and had a few weirdos chatting me up because I was wearing a uniform.I could understand nurses and policewomen's uniforms being sexy but bus drivers?
Blackpool's smelliest tramp asked me out for a date(a shared bottle of 3 Hammers in the bus station),I let him down gently by saying I was waiting for my(non existant) boyfriend to come home on leave from the Marines which got rid of him

Pick up line for Jill. "Do want to see my plectrum?"

Now who is being picky, Oh dear.

I once felt that i knew what a man wanted if he made eye contact or chatted me up but that was when I was out as queer and appeared to be a man too.  I lived through the days when gay men looked for signals such as car keys or handkerchiefs just so.  One might ask if you were 'in the family' or 'are you a friend of Dorothy'.  Way better now that people are out more often. 

Now the straight guys pay more attention and I am less secure about understanding their motives unless they are fixed on looking at my boobs.  I enjoy lite flirting but there are lines we do well to not let them cross for our safety.

This happened to me in the supermarket. I was going about my business, then suddenly this teenage appearing kid, mouth open and drooling, came up to me and said, "HEY LADY, HOW YOU DOIN TODAY?" in my face with bad breath and all. Um wtf... Thing is his parent (or whoever the adult was with him) just laughed it off. I definitely think he has some disability so I kinda just brushed it off but I stayed a bit far.

In my experience, those who stare at me and try to speak to me are mostly a kind of redneck people, I mean, construction laborers. As my residential area is now booming with new development activity, this is unavoidable. They sit in the street for rest, watching passers-by, and I can not escape from their eyes.

It IS an eye-opener.... Back when I was playing the guy role, I had no idea how slimy many of them were.... AND in day to day life! At least when gay guys would come onto me it would tend to be in a setting that was at least semi-appropriate, for straight cisguys it seems anywhere at anytime is perfectly acceptable! Heck, I'm even noticing a different side to male friends and acquaintances that I've never really noticed before.... And I'm not too much a fan of it.

There's quite a sense of entitlement there which I never felt in me or fully noticed in them when I was "one of them". No wonder I never fit in!

So true. ... I would add that it completely surprised me as well. Not that it happens... just that it happens so often, by people you would not expect, and somewhat relentless. My gut reaction is to complain. But I am not going to complain. It did not happen when I first transitioned. How does the saying go? "I have finally been objectified... it is so affirming?"

Out yesterday with a friend in a pub watching the game.  Bartender flirts that's their nature male or female, but the guy stealing looks at us most of the game. "You came in with a girlfriend! ". Oh and the two guys I cheered with once after a score,  I was talking to my friend the rest of the time. You didn't have to keep inching closer. It's like I'm playing a new game and I don't understand the rules

Yeah, they were totally getting in on our personal space (I probably would've flipped out if I was in yr spot.... Too close! Too close!).... It was causing me to drink! Well that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.... lol It was a massive relief when a table opened up and they went away.

Hi all.   New here.  I think most people have unique qualities that attract me even if not attractive, then personality, if not personality then smarts or looks or athletic or artistic abilities. 

I think we oft time send signals and people don't read them right or don't react as we feel they should.  Try new dress or not to be so friendly or outgoing.  Good luck.

This makes me curious for once I start going out more often. I've been told my whole life that I'm unapproachable due to "something inexplicable about me". A high school friend told me her initial impression once: "I felt like a wounded deer watching a wolf - wondering if it will lunge or walk away"...I wonder if going out in girl mode will change that any.

Somehow, I think it will. Once you are more comfortable with presenting yourself to the world, your confidence tends to attract people.

Knowing Jill - I'd say you are on the right track, but her wife is likely to put up a heck of a fight at anyone trying to pick Jill up

And yes, you were phunny.

I don't know if it's finally being me, full time, the hormones or just happier now.  (Me happier, yes it's possible anyone scared). But I have become more bubbly, talkative and smile more when out, then before. So you might find the same happen to you

Just some of the people I seem to attract. It can become a case of "Why me?"

...and your posts reflect that.

I once knew this genetic cis woman, she was gorgeous and she "attracted" all sorts of weird guys (flashers and worse). Poor thing, they were drawn to her like a moth to the flame, problem was it was her that usually got burnt by the experience. 

[StrykerXIII]

Lotta weirdos out there, that's for damn sure.

I can repel all of the moths at once by just speaking aloud

Personally, I think this has a lot to do w/ it. Quite simply there are a lot of weirdos out there and they are more likely to ignore regular social convention and get in yr face than the kind of nice, respectable types we'd all prefer to meet.

It's like the old expression goes, "you'll catch more flies w/ honey than vinegar".... The more that you project the sweet side of yr nature, the more that people as a whole will be drawn to you, and as I stated above, sadly it's usually the weirdos and creepers who are first to respond.
