I was driving home at around 5 pm one evening. I noticed the driver of the car slightly behind me on my left was coming to close at times (though there was plenty of room on the other side) and generally trying to hassle me.
We came to a roundabout and I stopped to give way to the traffic approaching from my right. This particular car drew up slightly ahead of me and the driver and his friend (two young guys) turned and gave me this cheeky, flirtatious look, which froze on their faces as I raised my eyebrows, thrust out my chin with its 5 o'clock shadow, and mouthed "So what's your problem?" They did a double take, let in the clutch and took a right turn and sped away (I presume in some confusion).
I got the impression that as I was wearing jeans and T-shirt, with my near-waist length hair down, that they had made a mistake as to my gender and thought of having some fun at my expense. Joke on them!!!
HAHA!!! Priceless! n/t
LULZ I like your response "So what's your problem?" I almost can't wait till my hair gets long enough to put into a bun at work, since most of the women I work with put their hair into buns, I am sure that for the first few times seeing me with a bun from behind is going to throw a few LOL.

I had a similar incident while cycling home last year. I was wearing a hi-vis vest and had my braid hanging down my back. I was on the cycle track which runs alonside the main road on one of the downhill stretches, so I was doing a pretty good speed. I heard a fire engine siren behind me as it approached the roundabout about half a mile behind me, but didn't think anything of it, becasue as I was on the cycle track, I wasn't going to be an obstruction to them. However, the driver started honking the horn as they approached me. I turned to look as they drew level, and saw a bunch of firemen staring out the side windows, and then the honking stopped and they took off like a bat out of hell. I laughed so much I nearly fell off the bike.
I too had a similar incident riding on a cycle path alongside the road last summer only the driver wolf whistled until he saw me then left quickly with an bemused look on their face. That was hilarious.
In the 1970's one of the popular television comedies on the idiot box was the Benny Hill Show and there was this skit of the middle aged man (Benny Hill) driving a car along a highway and seeing what he thought in the distance horizon of the road walking along was a blonde girl with waist length hair thumbing a lift and fantasizes about having a good time with a pretty girl only to discover when he slows down to offer a lift that the hitch hiker turns out to be a smiling long haired man with a beard hopping into the passenger seat and the fantasy evaporates.........Boy was it funny back then.

Hi Duncan,
Hmmm, yes the "idiot box" is alive and well even in this modern age!Only now it has a lot more idiotic material than it used to thanks to cable or satellite and hundreds of useless channels.lol.Cheers

Many moons ago when I had a younger body I was walking the beach at Daytona. It was spring break and I was in a bikini with my long blond hair down walking with the flow of traffic. Coming up behind me I can hear a car of horney (most likely under the influence)guys who have spotted what they think is some topless chick walking up ahead. The oh baby suddenly cut off and was replaced with, "SHIT, it's a dude!!" as they pulled up next to me. There was no fleeing as it was bumper to bumper beach scene cruising, so I had a BIG smile on my face after that one.
