Do they go up to random strangers? Are they upfront about it? Is it acceptable for women to go up to random strangers and hit on them?
I'm just wondering, because here in Turkey, generally men don't talk to women they don't know, and the ones that do are often creepers saying inappropriate stuff. If a lady tried that, they'd probably think she was a hooker or something.
Then in my high school, it was an overseas missionary high school, so yeah. Guys never really made the first move, and very few people even dated.

You want a good American husband so you can get the green card.

Good plan, you've been taught well.

Yes, the more aggressive ones will not hesistate to hit on complete strangers. Having accompanied two very attractive young ladies last week I saw this happen a lot.

I would be quite suspicious regarding the quality of such males though, although they are often physically quite attractive.

I can tell you that you're going to be quite surprised about how we do things over in North America.

I was born in America, and I'm half American. :roll: :lol:
I just moved here when I turned 10, so when I was living in America I was still into make-believe and only cared about reptiles. :lol:

I'm gonna be surprised? Are people as forward as they are on tv?

Girls in your demographic are likely to get 'hit on' multiple times a day. Most of them tend to be creepers though.

Or that's what the women tell me. I can never tell if they are lying though - to make themselves seem more desirable (being hit on) or to make me more comfortable ("no, the other men aren't a threat, they are just creeps anyway").

Yes, these people are almost certainly of the "pump 'em and dump 'em" school. Not the sort you want.

Why do you want to go to America? Something wrong with the red flag with the white crescent and star on it?

Carls Jr. would be a good reason. I can't really think of any others though...

I'm a 28 year old mother of two. I still get hit on every damn time I leave my house. Hell... lately I don't even have to leave my house! People I know IRL are trying to get in my pants. :?

Creepy people will hit on anything they think will give them ass, basically.

I would pay to have your problems.

Well... not with men. But still.

I want to move to America for college, job, and because people speak English there, and I can pursue my hobbies there, and stuff. I love Turkey but I'm tired of living here. I'm not very excited about the laws in America, however, or the stupid people.
hopefully people won't hit on me very often (I'd either not realise it, or get very flustered). I visited when I was like, 15 and only black guys seemed to do anything, and they acted like the rude Turkish guys.

Oh, that's easy! You bend down (not with your back), wrap your arms around her thighs just below the butt, and she's easy to pick up. :)
