By do this, do you mean act like the guy described does? Definitely. It just doesn't turn into such a big deal normally because I don't think most guys would feel quite so intimidated by a girl acting this way as a girl could feel from a guy. If a girl acted like this towards me, I would...well, actually, I probably wouldn't suspect anything romantic, but even if she made it clear that was the case I would still not feel nearly as uncomfortable as if a guy were doing so. Well, depending on the size of the girl and/or guy involved. If I find someone physically intimidating, which I'm more likely to find a guy, then I would be more likely to get upset in the situation described.
What do you think? As a guy, if a girl acted this way towards you (and her attention was unwanted), how would you feel?
I'd question her sanity ie any girl showing interest in me cause I have such a low opinion of myself
, the reason I asked the question as these stories are all ways told by women , strange as men being men would wear it as a badge of honour like casual sex another thing I question who does this 
, yes I think about it though I can not imagine going through with it
and what is the ratio of women doing this ?

Well, at least you realize your opinion is what's low, rather than your actual self-worth. That's a start.
Maybe men don't tell these stories because they're only a badge of honor if you succeed in landing the girl.
I don't know who does this...I get a vibe when I think about the type of person, but I can't seem to put it into words.
Ratio likely varies based on age group. I know in college I heard a lot of stories about girls who acted like this (from girls who were complaining about other girls...I swear, girl gossip is so scary). I would imagine, though, that if you asked my mom she'd have trouble coming up with examples.

self worth and low opnion of myself ....
don't worry I hold that opinion of (most) other people to

I can't argue you out of feelings of low self worth, but if I may make a suggestion, maybe try volunteering? Online or in person. There's nothing that makes me feel better about myself than when I'm giving back. Many of us here are used to being hurt/victimized by society, but volunteering is a chance to be in a powerful position, to help other people who are having a rough time and to actually have the power to help them with their situation in a way we weren't always provided ourselves. Plus, if you're looking to meet people, which it sounds like you are, this is a great way to do so. Just a thought.

I do that I'm on the pension the thing is I have severe anxiety disorder and I scare people away a young girl recently left storming out of the soup kitchen saying she is never coming back she looks at me and says it's not cause of me , perhaps not entirely though I was part of the problem 
, I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy though thanks to medication and lifestyle changes their are periods that are ok -ish and for that I am grateful.

your from the usa ? I am surprised some homeless people sleep in prime locations (here) like in the city open air mall, with police and security cameras near by it is understandable . Thankfully "face" is not at all important in Australia .
Speaking of the needy have you heard of the cage people in Kong Kong ? they have elderly people living in cages , even worse theirs no air conditioner / heater in the rooms , per sq meter they charge more than luxury homes their, of cause been a libertarian paradise that it is the government does not intervene .
as silly as it may sound I do not want to visit a country that behaves like this one of the richest in the world and it's people living like factory farm animals

Conditions vary from city to city, but yes, it's rough here. Really, really sad. And of course people say 'well they could just go sleep at a shelter' but a, shelters are often terrible and even dangerous, and b, shelters are way overcrowded. And 'tent cities' are razed down by authorities. My sister was telling me about one shelter in the city that's solely for mothers and their children. They're so overcrowded that the mothers and children are only allowed to stay there a few months before they're kicked out. Breaks my heart. Support Salvation Army, guys, they may not be perfect, but they do run decent (under funded) homeless shelters.
I had not heard about cage people. That is very, very sad.
