I’d be interested as I reckon it’s cross ages.
Like when the contraceptive pill came in it made it harder for a lot of women to say no to having sex as they couldn’t say they were worried about pregnancy. - so even then women needed a tolerated reason to say no to men.
It’s definitely for true stuff. It’s filler but it’s more emphasis than random.
Enough. Women are supposed to have a man they trust on hand at all times to check if each man they encounter is safe to respond to freely? A chaperone who knows all these random men on the street who harass? Like it’s all fine because men can recommend a friend.
You don’t comprehend my original point and subsequently you’re not really responding to it. That’s fine, you carry on but I realise you’re either a troll or completely naive or just being obtuse. cba anymore. Have a good day.
Are you careful with guns?
Do you need to know that the gun is not loaded before treating it as such?
When your response is “if in doubt, ask a man you trust” and women have shit threat radars, “tickling”. Those are not solutions.
I wasn’t asking for solutions or emotional support.
Quick recap for you: “How can you tell which is which when they’re all dressed as men?” And then you responded withpatronising incorrect victim blaming bullshit 👏👏👏 You’re basically advocating the missing stair which is all kinda of fucked up. But also! Evidently men don’t know which one of you are risk factors - many of you don’t even see a risk.
It was a rhetorical question for reasons that you can’t or won’t understand.
yeah for serious “woah”. I replied earlier up and I wish I hadn’t bothered now.
The stranger danger for rape and murder may be less than the known perpetrator but that doesn’t mean it’s non existant - known perpetrator is way too fucking high. Male violence (against men and women) is fact not ideological propaganda.

I don’t need to fix anything because I am not the problem. Historically, systemically and individually I am not the problem. I will continue to go about my life with my eyes wide open with risk assessment. I’m happy for you that you’re safe but I’m sad that you don’t seem able to listen to what all the women (and some men) in these comments are saying.
I’m certainly feeling disenheartened after all this. Idk why I thought lemmy could do better.
Do you have any women in your life with good judgment?
That makes me sad for you. I hope you remain open to chance.
How can you tell which is which when they’re all dressed as men?
Oh wow. Memory unlocked. We used to have a code word for “get me out of this interaction”. The amount of times I’ve been the one to break off a conversation/situation with a man on behalf of my friends and the amount of time the interaction has been scary.
Luckily I’m old and invisible now.
How about teleportation? Then you can deduct travel costs.
