I cycled home, tired and a bit grumpy and as puffed my way up a hill, I noticed a gang of hooded youths on the corner. I had to go past them to get home.
“Great”, I thought “Now I’ll get some rude remarks just to make my day”.
But instead, one of them pronounced, very loudly “That woman there, on the bike, has a great arse”.
Stunned, I puffed “thanks” and carried on homewards.
Notes to self:
Good for you, that would make my day if someone said that. It reminds me of a joke I heard today.
Man says to the wife “do you think if you put slimfast in your pants it would slim your arse down” with gales of laughter.
Next day he says to the wife “Is that talcum powder in my boxer shorts”
“No darling, it’s Miracle Grow”
lol - it so made me laugh.
But wasnt that .. although nonetheless complimentary to you and your buttocks .. still rather rude?
It’s a bit like when some bloke yells : “Cor. Great tits!” - makes me feel like giving him a smile of thanks but also gives me a great urge to slap him up the head all at the same time.
‘I should be more positive about my dodgy area & its inhabitants.’
Erm, you mean where you live rather than your arse?
Annie: *chuckles*
Londonlass. When you get to my age, you take your compliments where you get them, even if they aren’t the most graceful…
Dave. Tee hee.
Aw! I do have to agree, I’d imagine women would find it really rude. But, different people and such like.
If I yell that at a passing cyclist and get beaten up, I’m coming to get you!
Dave - jinx, I was just about to say that.
Fuck it, I’d be happy to take that compliment. If only…
Most of my girlfriends have had what they would term a ‘lard arse’ and I would term a ‘nice arse’. I think the problem is that men actually want more curves than women realise. Personally I find this new trend of having absolutely no arse what so ever a complete turnoff.
inappropriate but flattering non the less
haha nothing makes you feel worse than when you’re expecting people to be rude/nasty and they turn out to be lovely. Really annoys me when I’m elbowing my way onto a tube seat!
You said “Thanks”? Good on you! 
I like it when chavs go nice. I remember one once sauntering past and saying ‘that girl is beautiful’…which was better than a kiss of the teeth which is what I usually get
You definitely have a good arse if a bloke says it. spontaneously. Trust the bloke, not the mirror
Gotta throw London-Lass and LG in a blender on this one…
Part of me would have wanted to get loud and proud and I am Woman Hear Me Roar on their little asses, but then again, these days, any love I get is good love.
Except for leering and kissy sounds. That’s when I usually deliver them a little bird. GROSS. I also make the universal sign for “DIE IN A FIRE”, the old finger down the throat gesture. I’ve found it’s as effective as it was at age 13.
Maybe I’ll bring it back. Hell, if NKOTB are reuniting….
Lesson for all of us not to judge people, although I have to say I’d have expected the worse too! Always good to have a compliment at the end of the day.
I agree with you re. london lass and rude comments - I now smile if I get a wolf-whistle from a leery builder with a builder’s bum. As gravity starts taking its hold you have to make the most of the flattery, wherever it comes from!
Don’t be so quick to proclaim them as saints. I bet if you had a fat arse, they would have thrown rocks at you.
Or, depending on the area, maybe a grenade.
