Some aspect of this may come off as offensive, but frankly there was a certain amount of sexualizing gaze I had to deal with from both sides of the aisle that made things like meetings rather unfocused, and I don't think that'd change if I moved jobs (btw I'm not interested in "playing the field" or some such). Being able to elect to only pass on my voice in meetings is so much more beneficial for clear, conducive discussion for everyone instead of having to negotiate the unspoken politics of desiring gazes when we're in a place of business. There are enough people think they absolutely have a right to let you know how interested they are, and frankly, one simply shouldn't have to negotiate that at work (and enough people demonstrate they don't realize how bad they are with implicit/explicit rejection; not to mention the side effects of other people picking up on this phenonmenon that creates visible, needless resentful behavior). The minute you speak up about this, everyone wants to act like its not happening or that its your problem somehow ("don't you like it? isn't it flattering?"). But this is exactly how harassment and escalations of such happen for anyone.

There just isn't a good solution for "opting out" from this behavior in-office, so remote work has been a great boon in this direction in particular.
