The guys who say stuff like that don't get that it's nearly always not getting "attention" from someone you are attracted to, and combined with the clear elements of domination and intimidation, it's really not something they would like. Feeling like your body doesn't belong to you, but is "up for grabs" every time you leave the house is not pleasant or nice in the slightest.

Somewhat ironically, I learned to reclaim my body in a way I wasn't even conscious that I needed to in my 50s when we started going to swinger's clubs. I could be as dressed (or undressed) as I wanted to be and nobody thought that was "sending a message" or inviting leering, touching, staring, etc. I've written about that in the past but it was a while ago. Maybe it's time for another story on that.
