What you say about &#x27;if the female is attracted&#x27; is incredibly wrong, and I can speak from personal experience (as a guy). It&#x27;s NOT about attraction, its about being, well, creepy. I didn&#x27;t find this out till I started hitting the gym more and gay men started hitting on me more often (I&#x27;m straight and happily married for the record, so it&#x27;s not about me being attracted or not). Here&#x27;s what I learned:<p>If the guy is direct and has a positive attitude I say no but I take it as a compliment. It&#x27;s like a feather in my cap (someone thinks I look good!). If the guy is being weird and indirect about it that gets creepy (and sometimes a little scary). The difference is that the positive guy usually takes the hint if I&#x27;m not interested. If they don&#x27;t take the hint they BECOME creepy. The creepy guy is either so indirect that there&#x27;s no clear way to give a hint, or just refuses to take the hint at all.<p>As I said before, since I&#x27;m straight this isn&#x27;t about whether I&#x27;m attracted to the person or not. It&#x27;s about someone acting in a way that feels creepy or not. It&#x27;s about whether boundaries are being crossed. Finally, I&#x27;ll end by saying that you can be hit on by a good looking person in a creepy way, and flirted with by an ugly person in a very positive way. It&#x27;s all about attitude.
