The Slice: How ’bout a break, then some tips

Today I invite The Slice’s female readers to play 20 questions.

Here’s the deal. We all know this is ogling season. But apart from a simple adherence to good manners and basic decency, are there right ways and wrong ways for guys to check out the opposite sex?

Let’s ask the experts — women. (I’ll share a few of their answers in a follow-up.)

1. Can you tell when a guy is straining to keep his eyes on your face?

2. Which specific scoping-you-out behavior is most creepy?

3. Are the rules different if what you are wearing is astonishingly snug or revealing?

4. Can you determine whether a guy is a leering jerk or simply red-blooded just by reading his smile?

5. Are you suspicious of men wearing sunglasses?

6. Do you ever want to hear that submarine dive sound — a-ooooogah?

7. Do you prefer that male co-workers always maintain an air of obliviousness?

8. Is there a right way and a wrong way for a guy to compliment you on what you are wearing?

9. What percentage of men who think of themselves as suave are actually silly fools?

10. What goes through your mind when you see a man effortlessly ignoring a cornucopia of cleavage?

11. Are all bets off when you’re at the beach?

12. Where’s the line between healthy admiration and gawking?

13. When you see a guy remain calm around that one woman who thinks she is so hot, do you want to march over and shake his hand?

14. Would you agree with the “treat it like a solar eclipse” advice in that one “Seinfeld” episode?

15. How are the rules different when it comes to women staring at men?

16. When your back is turned to someone, can you tell if he is studying your butt?

17. What would life be like if people’s first impressions of you were based on the quality of your ideas?

18. If a guy is clearly embarrassed to be caught looking, do you cut him some slack?

19. How would you compare Spokane-style ogling to what you have experienced elsewhere?

20. Was all this more subtle and elegant years ago or have things not really changed?
