Question - (30 June 2012) 3 Answers - (Newest, 2 July 2012)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I feel like I owe no one an explanation of who I am and what I prefer. A female came into the building tonight at work and she was wearing a short tight dress and I looked her over as I do anyone male or female that catches my interest. However tonight a coworker saw me look at the other lady and she says to me yes I saw that you checking out that lady. In disbelief of her ignorance I said....what, then she replied I saw u look at that woman's ass so why u trying to deny it just tell the truth. My response was who the hell are u that I should justify myself. These mofos are definitely starting to work a nerve now. N its always the women. Why pay attention to what I'm looking at? It'll be something else if I checked my coworkers out, and they're so called attractive. I guess next time they attempt to call me out I'll call it on them for watching me n being jealous that I don't look at them. What better way to deal with these ppl?

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

This was an update to my post " Why are straights more curious about whose gay than the gays?"

So these mofos I'm referring to are the same mofos from the last post who have also been gossiping about me and my dating partners. Sorry I didn't add the thread, I didn't/don't know how. But I was looking for better ways to deal with these issues.

Besides the time was very appropriate, what was not appropriate is the female making a public spectacle of the matter announcing I got caught so confess. That behavior of hers was very inappropriate. This is a preexisting issue with this female as well as a few she associate with.

The same female that asked my orientation and I said what importance is that. She's been on a mission trying to discover me out, even going through my personal stuff on my phone that I left at my desk.

I would say the woman was just feeling jealous and insecure about herself, she may not have been necessarily annoyed that you weren't looking at her, but maybe that no one looks at her like that because she's not attractive [?].

You can either ignore people like that or just sort of agree with them/humour them and say something like 'I was looking because i can't beleive what a short dress she was wearing! how can young woman go around dressed like that, it's just appalling..' and that way the woman will think you and her are on the same side, which is usually the easiest way to deal with co-workers that you actually despise. life is far to short to worry about the stupid people you are forced to work with!

your right to say that you shouldnt have to explain yourself to anyone! its none of their busniess! i would probably deal with this in the same way as you are planning, tho the sensible advice would be to say, go to your manager, i understand that isnt always apropriate.
