Basically they are making assumptions about you and about her. If you had a picture of yourself posted and you were one of those young looking cute guys, many of them would be telling you to go for it. And if you also revealed she is an older women, they probably be would be telling you that it will make her day.

No, you are mistaken. Many (if not most) women do not want to be hit on at work by strangers. It happens ALL THE TIME and women have to smile and be polite and find a safe way of saying “no” without alienating the customer. It’s the bane of so many women’s existence— especially pretty young women who get hit on constantly. It does not make a woman’s day; it becomes yet another sucky thing she has to deal with. I have a large group of female friends (pretty, 20s-30s, all educated with good jobs) and not one of them like getting hit on. When we go out, we have actually played a game where we started counting how many times some random guy would try to hit on us, thinking they were going to make our day. Gross.
