As the title says I suspected for a while now I can't tell when men are "undressing me with thier eyes" or whatever you name the creepy look most women complain about a lot.
I feel like it's cuased by me not interacting with men at all or just rarely growing up, and this made me unable to tell if a man is dangerous.
I still isn't ready to date yet as I'm living in a Muslim country where dating is taboo and I'm yet to work on myself to be independent. But I'm thinking that when I start dating I won't have this natural instinct that let me know when I'm in danger as I yet to develop it.
For example I've watched this video and couldn't tell what she was talking about until someone pointed it out in the comments:

I guess the question is am I missing something I should have? Can I somehow develop it with experience?
I'm really scared that I don't have a useful tool that would tell me if I'm in danger and I would cause myself harm because of my inability to tell.
uhh yeah idk if this video is the best example because she's using it to say this is how men look at you vs. how women look at you. That's not what male/female gaze is, it's a term that relates to films and how they take the film shots.
And the women in the comments are saying Kevin is hot and more vulnerable??? and better at showing his interest in the woman than the guy trying to copy him?? I got total creeper vibes like he's checking out her body and not listening to her. Like he totally had dead eyes for a few seconds too.
Their eyes will travel your body a lot more when they're undressing you in their minds but I think how much they bring up sexual topics and make inappropriate jokes with you is a much bigger giveaway. Don't sweat it, this was a weird vid!
I can’t offer any advice on how you would identify it. For me, it has been identifiable. I shivered just watching this clip. 😬
