Why are guys at cons such fucking creepers?

I wasn't ever dressed terribly sexually, and yet creepy gross assholes spent the whole time ogling me.

"Why are guys at cons such fucking creepers?"

I think you've answered your own question.

I would have bolded at cons

Eh, most people at cons are socially maladjusted to the extreme. In a lot of cases, it's literally the only social function they ever attend, so you kind of have to expect bizarre/antisocial/creepy behavior. Try not to let it get to you too much.

(Anonymous) 2015-06-27 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
This. About five years ago, I was at a con and a young girl literally ran up to me, shouted, "You're really hot," in my face, and sprinted away.

So? They need to learn to not act like ignorant creepers. Sorry, being 'socially maladjusted' isn't an excuse for staring, eye-fucking, groping, leering, or any other behavior that is offputting and creepy.

Did anyone actually touch you, or say anything to you? Was it limited to just looking at you?

You know, any time a comment comes out smelling like they're on the side of defending the right to leer at women whenever they want, I'm not quite convinced they're on the side of justice.

Someone sounds a little full of themselves.

(Anonymous) 2015-06-27 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno, guys at conventions are pretty lechery.

(Anonymous) 2015-06-28 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
How is it full of yourself to be looked at?

Assuming the person was in costume...

(Anonymous) 2015-06-27 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
So people looked at you??

(Anonymous) 2015-06-27 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Not OP

I don't know why everyone sounds so surprised by this. OP never said they thought it was harassment, only creepy. It's people's right to look at you if you're in a public area so long as they don't approach you or threaten you, but they totally can do that in a way that you perceive is creepy. It doesn't have to be that one side is wrong. /shrug

(Anonymous) 2015-06-28 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
You've obviously never been creepily oggled

(Anonymous) 2015-06-27 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Very poor social skills and lack of self awareness, combined with almost no reinforcement from their friends that ogling women like you've never seen tits before isn't cool.

(Anonymous) 2015-06-27 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry this happened to you. And ignore everyone saying it's not a big deal. This is harassment, and conventions need to put a stop to it.

(Anonymous) 2015-06-27 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm curious as to how you're going to enforce people not looking at other people? When does a glance turn into a look turn into an ogle? Serious question.

I understand what OP is talking about re: ogling, but I am interested in some concrete suggestions on how you expect convention managers to put a stop to it.

It's a convention. What did you expect?

Honestly the truest description of what cons are like comes from this guy. I don't even do shrooms and agree 100% with his observations.

Nerd boy culture can be quite sexist.

[personal profile] herpymcderp 2015-06-28 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
Simple. You're at the Con so they think you might be on their level and into nerds.

It's just the way it works.

(Anonymous) 2015-06-28 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Because all guys are pigs, will never change, and deserve to die violently.

"wasn't ever dressed terribly sexually"
"creepy gross assholes"

I'd like to hear you elaborate.

(Anonymous) 2015-07-15 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
All guys are creeps. That's why they all need to die. Slowly and painfully.
