18. Yes.

At clubs when not allowing men to purchase drinks for me (or give them my phone number).
While walking alone in my former neighborhood, when I refused to get into the man's car.
After reporting a man for harrassing me on a public bus (to the driver who alerted an undercover officer).

I've seen this happen to other women too.

It's one of the reasons co-workers of mine used to "pretend" to be lesbians (after men expressed interest in them in). As they would then leave them alone. This was of course, in the days BEFORE straight women would "perform" for straight men by kissing their gf's. :eyes: (don't get me started on that...)

Once I was deemed "no longer attractive" for a period, it stopped.
Haven't dealt with it lately, but I'm usually wearing my wedding ring or with my mate.

Though I have been tempted to tell a few men,"...my eyes are up HERE!" after noticing them gazing at my ass or crotch. :puke:
The joy of wearing a smaller size than I used to. :eyes:

(sigh)
