Do you think it creepy for men to hit on you at the beach...?

Question

Would you date a man you met on the beach? I think they have an "advantage" because they see you "half-naked", and practically exposed. And, NO, I'm not going to stop going to the beach or wearing bathing suits; not being conceited, either. Just wondering if other women felt this way and what they thought.

Answer 1

I enjoy the flirting sometimes but I make sure I screen the men very well and I've never dated a man I met on the beach.

I often find it very annoying, I'm a smoker so I get guys coming upto me asking me for a light all the time.  I guess its their way of making their move on me.

Answer 2

would be bad if it was a creepy old man doing it.  even worse if it was the same guy at a nude beach, showing his all-over tan while putting the moves on you.  bravo for not backing down, but, all the same, guys like that have their place, usually it's underneath your boot as you are stomping them to death for grossing you out.

Answer 3

I think it's extremely creepy for men to hit on me at the beach. I certainly wouldn't date one of them; guys like that would tend to scare me.

Answer 4

O.K.

People are having fun, it's good weather, having a beer or so, and lunch..

Now, in walks pretty you, and the guy goes in for  a date card in hand.

I'm assuming you are pretty, and attractive, and you were by yourself or with a girl friend, possibly.

Nothing wrong with how he approaches you or what he says.

Now, if your gut feeling is to stay away from this guy or giving you weird vibes, I'd say go with your feeling, and dismiss him as a creep.

Answer 5

Why would it be creepy?  It's just another avenue to meet someone.  What does the bathing suit factor have to do with it?  It's the beach.  Everyone is what you call "half naked".  It's a comfortable environment to meet people because everyone is there to have fun, play in the pool or the ocean.  Whatever you choose to wear and how much you are exposing is up to you but that shouldn't be a reason to not date someone you met there.  Seems like a much more open and fun environment than the bar or club where women seem to think that less is more enticing.  Have you been to a club lately and seen the dress?  I think you are wearing more at the beach.

Answer 6

I don't know what your situation is, but after being a single guy trying to get dates for nearly a decade, I can honestly say that it not only isn't creepy, it's a necessity.

You see, if a guy is looking for a drinker, he'll go to a bar, not a library. If a guy is looking for a reader, he'll check out the library, not the beach. If a guy is looking for a beach girl, then he's hitting on girls at the beach.

Personally, I think it'd be creepier if a fully dressed guy with books in his hand was hitting on girls at the beach and looking for somebody to talk Shakespeare with.

Lots of alcoholics on the beach, so the example doesn't spin the other way, but I think you get the point. Wherever there's a chick, there's a dating oppertunity, and single guys don't have the luxury of being "hit on," so they have to find girls at places where girls are (like the beach) to hit on them.

If that's creepy, then so is procreation. (And procreation IS creepy too)

i bet the only reason he went to the beach was to hit on pretty ladies
