My best guy friend of 3 years asked me something really weird last week and I just can't stop forgetting it. We were hanging out w/ his friend, and we somehow started talking about the fact that a guy in my math class was looking down my shirt. Then my guy friend told me to bend over, jokingly. I was like "only if you pay me" sarcastically. Then he was like "I'll give you $6 if you give me a lapdance!!!!" And then his friend offered to give me $10 for one. I refused, of course, cuz that's just gross. I still can't get over that, though. I feel really disrespected. What should I do about it?

MotherJune answered Wednesday June 9 2004, 3:54 pm: Unfortunately, TV and movies reflect a certain way that cool guys should be. Especially, with sexist shows like "The Manshow". Young guys are constantly trying to prove themselves to their peers, especially in the area of sex. He may be a close male friend of 3 years, but when guys get together they feel like they have to band together and keep a cool front. Tell your friend, when you are alone, how much this insulted you and ask why he not only went along, but encouraged his friend by adding to the insult. Maybe you need to avoid his pal and only see him without the jerk of a buddy around. See what he has to say and if he ever does this again, he isn't really a friend.

THERE ARE A FEW THINGS YOU COULD DO ABOUT IT. SOME OF THESE THINGS MAY BE WHAT YOU WOULD OR WOULDN'T WANT TO DO.
1. YOU COULD GO TO THE AUTHORITIES, ANYWERE YOU CAN GO.
2. OR YOU COULD GO TALK TO THE PERSON WHO ASKED YOU FOR A LAP DANCE AND TELL HIM YOU DIDN'T APPRECIATE IT.
3.OR THE MOST POPULAR GO TO YOUR PARENTS AND TEL THEM

Mandee answered Sunday June 6 2004, 9:52 pm: Tell them! Really because, if you feel uncomfortable at any given time by a guy that is just not right and it needs to stop. You need to let them know when they are doing something that makes you feel bad. Just don't show up as a bitch while doing it. Because sometimes guys can get that impression. So you have to tell them that you feel disrespected because of what they have done. And if they could maybe stop doing that. Just be nice about it. You see like a swete girl, and you should never feel this way. Good luck, love ya- Mandee [ Mandee's advice column | Ask Mandee A Question ]

GC_rox_my_sox answered Sunday June 6 2004, 8:20 pm: They were deffinatley only joking with you. You (jokingly) offered to give a lapdance, so they (jokingly) offered money. Me and my guy friends joke around like that all the time, and it doesn't mean anything. It just means that your friend feels like he knows you well enough to joke around like that.
