Currently in Serbia and the male gaze is real. The flirting is not place or situation dependent, it just happens anytime and anywhere. It is also not age restrictive. I've had men approach me from early 20s to early 70s. I had several experiences of husbands flirting with me right in front of their wives which made me feel very uncomfortable. Questioning a woman's competence is common, specially by uneducated men. Since being here close to a year now I noticed that I go out of the house less and do my best to conduct my business only with women or through women.
According to your post history, you have a problem with all men, not just the ones in Serbia.
When I said safe, I meant physically safe, not feelings safe. Many Serbian women who are looking for a partner actually have the opposite problem-they complain no one approaches them.
