I think the closest I can think of is a friend of mine and I both got a 'hubba hubba' from this guy as we were walking down the street.

Who the eff says 'hubba hubba' and means it?

I remmeber when I was growing up in Alabama.

Teachers and classmates would alway "compliment" me when they found out I was Asian saying, "You don't look the least bit Asian--you look normal."

What? You do. Learn to take a compliment.

He answered: "I like apples too. I've been thinking about it, and I think that you have such a beautiful, slim body because you eat fruit. You're always eating fruit during break."

A bit socially awkward, but kind of sweet in its own way.


Years ago, a guy stopped his car mid-street and said, "Do you run or what? You've got some really tight thighs!" I said I danced a lot and he said, "Probably got a tight too!" and drove away.


Now which of these is more of a perv?

It rather is. It reminds me of a 'compliment' I got from a (female) history-teacher. She was talking about World War II and the Hitlerjugend and said "During World War II, out of all the students in this room, Marie would have chosen as an ideal Arian girl, with blue eyes and blonde hair. She would have been put on a wagon an shown to the people on the street."

I said "My family was put on a train and killed in the gas-chambers".

Her face turned red and she mumbled a quiet 'didn't know that, sorry'.

I'll never forget when I was walking downtown San Francisco at around age 19, and this guy (a smelly homeless person) walks up to me at the Powell St. muni station and YELLS out in front of hundreds of commuters at rush hour, "Ooh, I'll bet your pussy tastes GOOD!"



I was mortified. I really was. I remember I was still shaking from it when I got home. I don't know why it affected me so strongly, but it did.

unlucky7 said:

She truly didn't know that of course, so I didn't blame her. But it was that kind of situation that only became funny later on.

minneapolisgenius said:

You poor thing....I would have been mortified too.That's pretty sad.

unlucky7 said:

Yeah, it was pretty bad. Mostly because so many people saw it and heard it. I can't even believe I just told this story here anyway. I've never told anyone that story before.

minneapolisgenius said:

Yikes! I've never told anyone my story either until now. I felt weird just typing it up. Funny what the org digs up.

I guess those incidents fall under the category of sexual harrassment. Not that they're particulary isolated incidents either...

heartbeatocean said:

I know. I thought I had buried that memory far FAR away, and here I am writing about it.

minneapolisgenius said:

It's okay...

The compliments that i get from women are more stupid than funny.

Yesterday I was eating an apple during break. I noticed an older colleague (a teacher of Dutch as well) staring at me. Suddenly he came to me and asked in a shy way...

"Uhm, Marie, do you like to eat apples?"

I said: "Uhm yes, at least three a week."

He answered: "I like apples too. I've been thinking about it, and I think that you have such a beautiful, slim body because you eat fruit. You're always eating fruit during break."


I thought that was such a funny conversation. One of the other co-workers heard this and started to laugh.

He got a red face, mumbled 'sorry for this remark' and turned away.

MarieLouise said:

If he asks you if you like to eat bananas as well, run.

Spats said:

Like, "Shut your pie hole before I kick you in the head"?

That's not really a compliment. Just so you know.

minneapolisgenius said:

It's not hard to give a good compliment you would think they could do it.

Spats said:

Are you ever going to go away?
