Maybe your body language is saying you don't want to fight so they think you're safe to pick on and show off how they backed down the big dude in the bar.
Maybe do an experiment and try acting a little more aggressive and serious and see if that makes a difference.
I hate to be cliche but the old one about not the size of the dog in the fight but rather the size of fight in the dog is working against you.
I used to have a huge buddy back in my bar age days, and when we was out I noticed that he had a tendancy to shrink up when we were sitting in a place. He'd curl his shoulders forward and keep his arms in close to his sides and lean forward. I thought he was trying to look smaller so less intimidating to women. This behavior could be seen as weakness I suppose.
