Two thoughts: ...
I'll add a third:
The only time anyone, cute girl or cute boy alike, has made a comment
about any camera I'm carrying in the past year or two has been to ask
say, "Nice camera ... Is it digital?". Or to mistake whatever it was
for a Leica because I was carrying it in a Billingham bag as I
reported a week or so ago. !
Most become curious about what I'm doing because I'm four feet away
taking their picture, but not about the camera... such is the
advantage of working with short focal length lenses. ;-) :-)

I have had a few pretty women comment on my snake-skinned LX.
A couple of them were professional photographers shooting Canon or
Nikon. And the combination that caught their eyes were the 'snaked' LX
with a silver Limited Lens.
I actually had a guy in southern Manhattan walk by - as I was waiting to
meet with Annsan and Amita - and stop, come back to me and comment on my
LX...
These have occurred while I was not taking photos, the camera was either
in my hands, or on a table...
