Is there some kind of universal hand signal for "hell no!"

I have this reoccurring experience where some yucky guy tries to hit on me while I sit at a stop light. Today it was a Mexican who waved out of his open window. I usually just do something so they can't see me anymore and I can't see them, like cover my face with the hand closest to them or pull my car forward a few feet and pray for the light to change as I painfully avoid eye contact. But really when I'm just not "in the mood" (as if I'm ever in the mood to be harassed while driving home from work) I just want to display an upward motion of the middle finger....


I was particularly annoyed by the 60+ year man making a kissy face at me as he drove by two days ago. "Are you kidding me?! You're a 60 years old!" I don't have anything against 60 year old's. I think my dad is 60 if not then almost and I love him. I just don't like them coming onto me.

What's that?  I should feel flattered?

Anytime I complain to someone about such incidences they tell me I should feel flattered. what about having a nasty old man coming onto me should make me feel flattered?! It doesn't do anything for my confidence, in fact it has the opposite effect. I'm pretty sure he would take whatever he can get. Give me a hot guy in his 20s or 30s and I'll be flattered. heck! I might even wave back.
