Different Types Of Ogling

Men have several different approaches when it comes to ogling a woman and some are more acceptable than others.  Let’s start off with the worst and work our way to the ones that might actually get you somewhere.

Hoots, hollers and whistles will get you nowhere and you should never attempt this method unless you are on a construction site, where it is expected and begrudgingly tolerated.

Another way of ogling that will impress no girl (other than prostitutes and strippers) is directly staring at the breasts or butt of the object of your attentions.  If you can’t make eye contact with a woman when you first see her, you’ve got no chance.

Speaking of eye contact, there is a method of checking someone out that involves plenty of it.  In this type, you do not check out her body at all—at least not obviously—instead you focus on looking directly into her eyes and letting your stare do the talking for you.  Look at her with confidence, not cockiness; the kind of look that invites her to look back.  Most women will respond by blushing and turning away, but you’ll also detect a hint of a smile.

The last ogling technique I want to go over is called, “The Elevator.”  This is the title a lover of mine has used to describe the way he checks out girls.  Basically, it’s a long sweep of a girl’s entire body starting at her feet and ending up at her eyes.  This one is a little more blatantly sexual and will certainly get your point across, without being as potentially offensive as hooting or slobbering over her boobs.

While it is natural for men and women to check out good-looking members of the opposite sex, it’s important to remember not to be a jerk about it.  That means when you’re out with your girlfriend, try not to be obvious about it.  When I’m with a male partner, we tend to check out girls together, but that’s because I’m bisexual and very open-minded, and there’s a pretty good chance your girlfriend isn’t the same way.  Also, try not to make the woman you’re staring at feel like a piece of meat—unless, of course, you’re a construction worker.  You wouldn’t want to get kicked out of the construction worker perverts’ club for not commenting on her short skirt as she walks by.
