    It's like porn... you can't define it but you know it when you see it.

    Last month on my JMT hike, a 45-50ish year old women stopped & took a break with our "trail family", we all hiked on one at a time, when it was just one 22 year old young man left & the women took ALL of her clothes off & told him, "I will never look this good again in my life", handed him her camera & said please take my picture & she posed in many many different poses.

    What do you think would happen if a man did this to a 22 year old women??

    Gotta love long trails, Ya just never know what kinda wildlife you'll come across.

    There's a good point to be made here:
    If "Ethel" does something inappropriate, we think it's funny (and weird and creepy) but not too many people would feel physically threatened.
    But if a dude did this, I'd be creeped out, and if alone, I'd definitely feel threatened. And I wouldn't think it was funny unless he was really old (like 95) and clearly no threat.
    The fact is, males and females are differently sized and differently motivated, and our reactions to odd behavior has to be understood in that context.

    Was she attractive? Sounds like a missed opportunity for an even better story for a certain 22 year old young man

    Not attractive but it made for some great laughs for the next week or so.

    I just thought it was so fitting for this conversation!! Flip the tables & the cops may have been called on the guy. BUT we we're in California ya know .

    A few days later, another interesting solo 45ish lady, walks right up to our group, looked straight at me and said "Your not Brad".......... Um NO I'm not,..... we all just cracked up. She was a cool eccentric women who could have been labeled as creepy, but instead of labeling her, we had great conversation, laughs & exchanged N & S trail info. Gotta love our misfit "trail community".

    Wow!! That is beyond creepy. Sounds like that lady needs some serious consulting regarding body imagine issues and socially appropriate behavior.

    A surgeon I worked with is a creep. Always making inappropriate comments/jokes despite knowing they made people in the room uncomfortable. Partly a power trip for him because he knew they weren't going to do anything to him despite being reported for it. The part that made it creepy was that right after he would make the comment(as) he would immediately turn to you with a little smirk and say "now you're not going to report me are you?" Made me want to vomit!! He finally got the hint not to touch me when I started talking about the definition of assault & battery.

    Haven't met a creep on the trail yet though

    And if I happen to be following behind you going uphill, please ignore all the creepy grunting and moaning you hear it's just me trying to fight my way up the hill. nothing personal.

    Better a hiker grunting behind me, than a big brown furry thing with claws. The creepy thing I need to get pointed out to me is poison ivy.

    Should I ignore your deep breathing?

    Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Don't walk beside me either. Just leave me alone.
    I'm so confused, I'm not sure if I lost my horse or found a rope.
