Chad I have to say I am so angry about this, angry this happened to you, angry that some people think this is acceptable.
I have to say had I witnessed this I would of been sorely tempted to make some disparaging remark about `whispering woman` within earshot so she could spend the rest of the day pondering as to why something about herself had prompted such a openly snarky reaction. That said clearly you were far more dignified than that, all credit to you for returning the guy`s head bob and keeping your composure. You stood head and shoulders above him.
For a long time my daughter was only comfortable in boys/mens clothing. We were in a department store one time and I was helping her pick out things to try on. She asked did I think anyone was `looking` at her because she was browsing the Men`s section, No I said and if they were so what. She smiled and happily went about choosing things {she does so love to shop !

} I then became aware someone was indeed `looking`. A chap waiting by the dressing rooms, he was watching her intently with a curiously fascinated expression and a ridiculing, sneer of a smile spreading across his face. I made sure my daughter was not aware I was discreetly observing his reaction, so intently was he watching {judging} her he was not aware either. She trotted off to try things on and I waited off to the side. When I saw her coming out and handing some items to the assistant he again became engaged in `watching` her. I stepped forward and shot him a killer look of
`protective mama Bear/enraged Femme/Butch avenger` I`m sure you get what I mean ! He had the good grace to look extremely uncomfortable, struggling to hold my acid stare and began to blush profusely. I left him with a scathing up and down appraisal and we went off on our way. My daughter never knew of this exchange. I think had she noticed his reaction she would of fled with no purchases and been pretty shut down by it. I will never understand some people.
