  • You’re the same person who commented headphones in means don’t approach. That’s not what I’m talking about. Go to YouTube, search “men not approaching women” and behold, many women reporting that they aren’t getting approached when they feel they should be. So the feedback I’m hearing is, well, women should go and approach men, which men seemed fine with the idea, but women seemed appalled at the notion. If you want me to link some compilations I will.

    I mean I don’t care either way, I already found my partner, so you all do you.




  • Oh that’s a great question, I have no idea. I’m just watching the divide happen and am glad my partner and I found each other. I’m sure it’s not good for the fabric of society though. It’s like we’re moving further and further into isolation tendencies.

    I guess the easiest solution would be the return of “handkerchief dropping” or some equivalent thing.


  • If the only men who approach you are people who don’t respect boundaries, then every man you meet has similar traits, and then it’s easy to think all men your problem when it’s not. Just because you’re easily lost in conversation doesn’t make everything a strawman. It’s not a magic incantation that makes you look smart.


  • I don’t know who that is, I simply searched “men not approaching” in YouTube search. There’s no shortage of similar contradictory content. Women are not a monolith, so it stands to reason that some genuinely don’t want to be approached at all, and some do, but since we’re not psychic, that just leaves respectful men not approaching as a default position.
