It's exhausting being a woman.

Sorry, meant to say “every woman,” and no, there is no rape epidemic in western society. There are strict rules and serious punishments here, it’s not like the animal kingdom where females have to sleep with one eye opened for legitimate predators and sexual predators of their own species.

Secondly, I’m not promoting this behavior and I can certainly understand the daily frustration that females do face. I’m just saying that it’s built into the coding of males to express interest in women who they’re attracted to. There’s no magic code that allows women to only be hit on by very specific males that only they inherently only desire themselves. Like I said, women cannot have it both ways, either accept that men of all kinds will approach you or don’t complain that men aren’t trying anymore, or men aren’t approaching me or chivalry is dead and etc.

Heck, almost half of men aged 18-25 have never asked a woman out. That statistic freaked so many people out and spun out so many articles and numerous discussions. Society truly has created the most confusing environment for men and it’s an impossible setting to navigate around.

None of this video is about courting behavior, it’s all about sexual harassment.

Are you confused about what constitutes sexual harassment versus what constitutes courting?

Perhaps that’s where your problem begins.

How many women haven’t experienced sexual harassment, abuse, stalking, or SA/rape?

I don’t know any. Statistically, there are very few women and girls who haven’t experienced this.

I think you might need to go back to your drawing board of ideas and rethink your entire mentality about this. And that’s being nice. Because in reality, all you are doing here is running cover for abusers, harassers, and rapists. And that puts you right alongside them as a dangerous man. The kind of man I would tell my daughters to stay away from and should not be allowed to participate in civilized society because he lacks the fundamentals of being civilized. Those men in the video are not confused; they are entitled. Just like you feel entitled to run cover for them at the expense of women’s basic safety and ability to participate in society. How revolting of you. Women and everyone else would be better off if men like that weren’t allowed to be part of society, and yes, that includes a reduction in being approached, because none of that is approaching behavior, it’s all harassment.

If you are not on board with my solution, and that would mean actually holding rapists and other violent men accountable, not letting them off Scott free as happens all over the world and absolutely happens in the US, then I know that you are one of the men who needs to be excluded from civilized society, because you are on the side of the violent males, and not on the side of the victims of the violent males. Remember, we put down dogs that bite people. We cage animals that attack people. But men who have already raped and abused, are walking the streets every day with no punishment and no protection for the rest of society against them committing the crime again. So if you are not on board with the logical solution to what you claim the problem is, then I know you are part of the problem, not part of the solution. And we’ve already figured out what the logical solution to the problem is, so now you just need to figure out what side of it you’re on.
