    Because you can tell if someone has a boyfriend by looking at them. Bitch.

    However, the female staff consider men doing this to be "creepy" but not for women to do it...

    Women have better peripheral vision. In general, women tend to either have a look or not have a look, and usually quite sneakily. From what I've heard we actually check men out more than we realise. Men can sometimes be quite obvious though.

    I've no problem with someone having a look at my body. If I didn't want anyone to see me I wouldn't go out in public. But when you're going about your business and someone is quite obviously having an uncomfortably long stare at your tits, I think it's understandable that you'd get a bit pissy.

    To be fair to her, it might be the case that this guy is eyeing her up every day in the creepiest, perviest way possible.

    Message seems to imply that it was only one day. She talks about "this morning" and she's hardly wearing the same clothes every day.

    She needs to get over herself - we all do it. It's only creepy if you stare at someone for the full journey, especially if you've been noticed.

    And green jeans and grey cardigan and boots? He was probably trying to figure out why someone would choose to put those colours together.

    How do you know he wasn't staring for the whole journey

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Why does she think it's a waste of his time? Maybe he felt it was time very well spent to be eyeing her up, rather than reading the Metro, for example. ;)

    On the red line she should be thankful she wasn't felt up or mugged by some junkie!

    I guess it's just one of those things that leads to a lot of these "Irish women..." threads - that need to insult somebody for daring to find them attractive.

    Could she not just have taken it as a compliment that she was being eyed up and gotten a confidence boost from it, instead of trying to boost her confidence by putting somebody else down in the process??

    There are limits. I used to eyeball birds out of it if I was bored but subtly and not really for any longer than 10 seconds.

    But there are some creepazoids. I used to see one serious cretin who took the Dundalk/Drogheda to Dublin train and he'd absolutely google mots to bits, once he used his camera phone to take a photo of an attractive young woman who fell asleep across from him. He was a big sweaty middle aged, overweight, cauliflour eared gimp.
    I also once saw him push a woman out of the way to get a seat. But most middle aged men in dublin commutes do that.

    I missed the bit in the article where it said she was Irish?

    I don't, but surely she would have said somthing if that was the case. It's a bit extreme to put a notice in The Metro.

    Our definitions of eyeballing girls out of it are quite different.

    Green jeans and a grey cardigan, foreign girls are too stylish to dress like that! :P

    Actually it was the language, phrases and overall tone that made it seem like an Irish girl.
    You obviously missed the part of my original comment where I stated she was Irish as well for that matter! I merely implied it was the sort of response that would more likely be associated with an Irish girl

    She loved it.

    Too bad it's not all that common for her.
