Gender moment 2

My gender moment came this past weekend when i was shopping at the oulets with my boyfriend. As soon as i walked int he sales associate handed me a shopping bag and started telling me about all of the special completely ignoring my boyfriend. It was is her non verbal communication was saying that i was the decision maker when it came to shopping and buying clothes because i am the female and generally men do not like to shop. I found the same situation happen in multiple stores, i thought this was an interesting trend.

  1. I cant say the same happens to me when I go to stores. They seem to bother me the minute I walk in the door and usually I dont want them to. I do remember going to a store with my girlfriend where the store associate decided to flirt with my girl in front of me, well not actually in front of me. I walked in a little after her and when I came up he stopped talking but I did notice the conversation had nothing to do with anything they sold in the store. Well that brings me to another point. Has this ever happened to you? A guy hitting on you even when he knows you have a boyfriend. I think it actually happens quite often and have seen it happen many times myself. OK, maybe I'm a little off topic here, sorry!
