Every woman complains about the same things when it comes to finding some of that good lovin’: at some point in time, all the wrong men were trying to holler. Not only were they trying to holler, they would holler when she would go out of the house in a paisley-print muumuu, some tights, and a headwrap that was NOT the father from the motherland.
Basically, “that” dude is out there lurking in the shadows waiting to pounce on you and hold you hostage to his crip-wallking teeth and incendiary conversation about his self-improvement program, Everest College, and why women don’t know a good thing when they see it. Plus, his scurl has NEVER been on fire.
To take it a step further, let’s just paint a picture of the guy women don’t want to holler at them the most, a composite if you will.
Ready?
Set. Go.
Gold teeth. Lime green 3-piece suit with 8 buttons (kind of like a Steve Harvey special), one too many pieces of jewelry, some Stacey Adams wing-tips, a temple-fade haircut with the Philly-dye to fill in his edges, drinking some sort of dark-liquor concoction that MUST include Hennessey. Oh yes, and he is particular to women he can affectionately call “redbone”. He also likes to call you “shawty” or “lil mama”. And he JUST might be 51 and have a child your age.
Possibly.
Most women go wrong by trying to reason with the dude or being nice hoping he’ll go away. These cats don’t go away. They’re like roaches. “No” is not a word that means go away. It means try harder. But unlike the Geto Boys, they CAN be stopped – without a shot to the eye. No Reality Kings.
It’s 2010 and VSB is still in the crimefighting business. If you keep getting hollered at by Svelt Leon you might stop going out and nobody will ever get the chance to talk to you. You’ll end up like the women we assumed Helena Andrews was talking about.
So here are some ways to stop Romeo in his tracks:
1. Tell him you have an STD before he even gets going. Sure you’re deading your chances of talking to ANYBODY in the club you’re at, but be real, you and the guy you DON’T want to talk to are at the same spot. Chances are you probably should stop going there anyway. “Those” dudes travel in packs and they DON’T go to places where it seems like all the women read good. Kids don’t scare away men, but STDs? Fear of God (unless he already has one and thinks a second one might cancel it out – like I said, you shouldn’t be there.)
2. Tell him that your daddy is a cop (and you actually know him). For some reason, Black people really don’t trust police. I have no earthly idea why. But NOBODY wants to date a cop’s daughter. It just seems like a bad idea. Plus, if you know your daddy AND he’s a cop, he’s probably overprotective and watching you like Rockwell. Just seems like a better idea to talk to the chick in the 2-sizes too small pink leopard onesie.
3. Start talking about politics and local elections. This might backfire 1/100 times, but most hood ignant dudes don’t know nothing about no ‘lections. Mostly because they either can’t or don’t vote. To complete the murder, just ask him about his favorite book that wasn’t written by Donald Goines. He’ll go talk to a chick who thinks Zane is fine literature.
4. Ask him if he’s holding any crack on him. Not coca-ina. Crack. Nobody wants to intentionally date a crackhead, no matter how fine she is. That should be a surprise.
5. Say, “I bet you have small wang. (To friends, loudly) Hey, doesn’t he look like he has a small wang?” He’ll either pull it out to prove you wrong and thus embarass himself and possibly go to jail (win/win) or get mad and call you a “b*tch” and roll out because you are crazy, loud, and ignant. Just remember, he may try to kill you later on that night so I’d be careful with that one.
So good people of VSB, what are some other ways to get the wrong guys to not holler?
Floor? All yours.

I usually grab the nearest homegirl and pretend she’s my lover and kinda feel her up, it used to work untill men got freaky and thought that type of thing was sexy….
I also played deaf once…used fake sign language and everything. When I turned my back dude told his homie “I bet she got a fat ***** and I know I can hit” I ruined it when I turned around and said “What the hell did you say!?” He jumped back saying “I thought you were deaf!”

My sister attends Spelman and when in her area… OH MY GAWD! These dudes are relentless! They’re all like, “Ummm. Damn! Skew me Miss Lady. Won’t ya let me holla atcha? K. I see ya, lil mama. You rollin like that {referring to the ride}? Yo man got you ridin’ big ma’ {just automatically assuming I can’t purchase a ride myself} but I can take care of ya too babay. Um. Ya gotcha lil iPhone… how much ya pay for yours ’cause I could getcha one real low. Won’t ya let me get yo number, shawty?”

All of that and I haven’t said not one word to ‘em. Not one word. But I figured out where I make my mistake everytime (aside from going near where they are) my girlfriend says I look nice and that I need to have a mean face. I can’t help it though because I’m always smiling so …. *shrug*

See I think that’s perfectly acceptable approach. He said “skew me” and he asked if he could “holla atcha”.
I just say Hello, smile and keep it moving. If they persist…”Have a nice day.” “No thank you.” “appreciate it”…and keep it moving.
Usually they just smile and leave you alone after a while. But always with a smile on their faces.

Same approach here. I think they respect the respect and leave well enough alone.
Usually, a sheepish smile followed by a respectful “No Thank You” and “Have a nice day” while keeping it moving and avoiding eye contact results in “Alright chocolate, you have a nice day too”… or some such.
Or maybe it’s the southerner in them. Even southern “ghetto dudes” have nice manners.

These might be a lil’ extreme, but here are a few options for the more daring VSS:
1) Start scratching furiously all over…or, if you have no shame, scratch oh so obviously in the groin area, cuz nothing makes a man retreat faster than the threat of crabs (this is in line with Panama’s #1)
2) Act like you’re a working girl (a la’ Pretty Woman). Most dudes like this think they’re pimpin…so the thought of trying to pimp an actual professional isn’t too alluring

my old tactic was to lie about my age. in response to the question “how ol’ you is? ** i would just smile sweetly and say “13.” that doesn’t work now because
1) these freaky b*st*rds just don’t give a d*mn anymore. underaged? no problem; and
2) um…..i guess my baby face isn’t so baby anymore. one dude looked at me like, “13? negro, please” and walked away.
my new tactic is rudeness. works like a charm. to a dude at the gas station said I, and I quote: “so…didn’t sagging go out of style?? unless it ever becomes 1996 again, i can’t give my number to anybody still wearing they clothes like that. but thanks though. ”

This post reminds me why I’m glad to be a man. If I had to live with mess like this I wouldn’t be a fun person to be around.
Women holla so infrequently that when they do it’s an ego boost regardless of whether she looks good because you can rationalize it like, “Well she was the only one around that saw my magnificence. If I had been at XYZ, then them bad jawns would have been all on me too.”
On an unrelated note, I can’t wait til I’m old enough to rock the s-curl, wear gaudy suits, too many rings, and leer at the PYTs.

Me too…but I think as men, we tend to be more cut to the chase…when we approach women, they know exactly why we’re approaching them…our effort/goal is pretty obvious. Women are generally much more coy in their flirting/approaching, so much that a lot of us don’t realize that they’re trying to flirt (I know I’ve been told a few times that I’m bad at picking up hints..lol).
But just to play Devil’s advocate… if there was/is a male equivalent to this situation, how would you deal?? Imagine every time you go out, you gotta deal with 5-10 women, all rhinestoned and glittered, smellin’ like the hair/nail salon (u know that smell), soliciting you for some time, affection, and maybe a gin & tonic…

I’m rude as hell but that doesn’t even seem to work. Some old dude with a gold tooth and a valour track suit walked up to me in the grocery store checkout line. He started to ask me if I realized how fine I was when I cut him off and said loudly, “Oh my God!” He says, “Oh you heard that one before?” Then he continued to talk about how he saw me from “afar” and had to come and say something. “Afar”? Really? It was ridiculous. I kept rolling my eyes and checking my phone. Luckily a friend of mine walked up to me in line and starting talking and dude walked away.

#1 always works well. I found this out when I was 17 at a 21+ club in Atl. This guy would not hear me say no to a drink or a dance. So I smiled and began making friendly conversation about my mean game of “mononucelosisticitis”. He gave me the o_O face but stayed close by my side. What really sealed the deal, though, was talking about my impending pregnancy. “I know I shouldn’t be at a club right now but I just need to de-stress every once in awhile, ya know?” And then I said “yes” to a dance from a fine dude.
The only problem was o_O tried to throw salt in my game by “warning” Mr. Fine about my disease and pregnancy. I just said Mr. Lime Green is drunk and we moved to the dancefloor. Great night.
My other “go away” plan is to say I’m studying for the monastery and have a very protective father who’s passionate about shotguns. One of those is true.
As someone else already wrote, gay is now considered a come-on.

Anyhow, aside from asking dude for money here’s a few that have been successful for me:
-Asking him to put you on with some fine dude WAY across the room (preferably one you’re sure he doesnt know)
-Try to convince him that 25 years ago he had an affair with your mother. And don’t we kinda got the same eyes??? (OK, My girl is the one who tried that one but it worked like a charm)
These are only necessary if you’re cornered for some reason. Otherwise, like posters said upthread smiling politely and walking away works wonders.

the best way to get a guy to leave you alone is to always have a —to quote “the situation” from ‘jersey shore’— “grenade” for hire around. this way, when the guy approaches, the grenade (which describes an extremely unattractive and undesirable woman) will make so much of a scene (talking loud, throwing up, being ugly, etc, etc) that the guy will eventually just lose interest and walk away.

The fear, especially with #4 and #5, is that some guys might lose it on a girl who says something like this to them.
I am always nice in my rejection until the guy takes too long to figure it out.
But I have been attacked on a couple of occasions because I was rude to one guy and because, after getting rejected all night, i was the last straw for another.
So be careful ladies, not all men will take it in good humor.

2 quick, not-so-relevant things to say:
1. I had to do a double take real quick cuz I thought dude on the right was my cousin for a second (but he’s from the South, which either significantly decreases or increases the likelihood that he’d wear something like that; I haven’t decided which yet).
2. lmao @ the Rockwell line. I hope those GEICO commercials have inspired people to find out just how hilarious that song really is.

There was this one guy who kept pestering me on the ride into work in the mornings. (See these types don’t just hang out in front of your local bodega or favorite after hours spot parking lot.) I usually just acted like I couldn’t hear him because I always have in earphones (excellent holla-deterrent). This one guy was so persistent though that he would just wave and gesture and keep trying to start up conversations. So I finally had enough. I took my earphones out and gave him THAT look. The one that’s a cross between “eeewwwww what is that smell” and “don’t make me cut you muthasucka.” You know the one. Pleased as a pig in mud with the attention, he starts asking questions. I give one word answers. Yes. No. Fine. The curtness does not deter. Onto Plan B when he gets to my favorite question. “So, you gotta man?” I smile because I know that He is so not ready for this. “Yeah. Two of ‘em actually.” Confusion crosses his face, like he didn’t hear me right. He says, “Two?” Me: “Yeah, but that ain’t no problem. ” Still smiling, I say, “My baby-daddy bout to get locked up for that bullish he pulled a last weekend. I don’t know why he always tryna cut somebody. Don’t worry, he going to jail for sure this time. So, I’m bout to get off the bus…I can’t give you my cell, because Leon always going through it but…” He was too done with me. Neva said another word. Not even a smile. True story.

I figure that’s when it comes in handy to live in a city that requires a lot of driving. You avoid most of the Lime Greens!

Actually, this one has worked for me…lol!
I wear a bindi and I tell “aggressive” guys it gives me the ability to “see” our future together…
Then I start talking about his momma with all kinds of (generic) familiarity…(i.e describing church hats and how he was raised without a daddy).
He usually backs away making the sign of the cross…

@Carl, LOL…wildabeast! Ahw, but you cant blame a girl for trying…the lesser pretty ones need love tooo. What do you say..you dont get rude do you? Sigh, cant imagine what it would feel like to be turned down. I turned down a not so goodlooking guy and he called me shallow’. I’m not shallow, but there has to be a certain attraction.

@Rochelle, the lesser attractive should be loved by the lesser handsome only. Everybody would be much happier that way. Of course not, I’m never rude. I just ease my way out of that conversation. But it can get real hard at times, because those not so attractive women can be extremely aggressive.

LMFAO @ “Just remember, he may try to kill you later on that night so I’d be careful with that one.”
There is always that one dude that just looks so crazy that your scared to be mean to him!
But that same dude get the “Just give me your number…noooo I don’t give my number out…” That one has been working well for me lately.
And if it doesn’t me and my girls have the best eye-talk ever and they swoop in like the CIA to save me!

He’ll either pull it out to prove you wrong and thus embarass himself and possibly go to jail (win/win)
That…doesn’t sound like a win at all. Especially since most flashers don’t end up in jail because it’s not taken “seriously”

For those of us who cannot tell a lie, my proven 1-2 punch is to
1. be real super extra articulate (you know–like Condeleeza Rice. Anti-sexy thanna mug.) Then,
2. simply call them “sir”, as if you’re talking to an authority figure (ie, your pastor, parol officer, principal, etc.).
Zaps the loving feeling right out of’em within about two uses every time.
