Ladies Are Unfriendly?

[Henry123]

Do you find most ladies being unfriendly (like if you were to approach a complete stranger)?

What percentage you think are friendly or unfriendly?

[miSSleepy]

I'm sorry, but that is a really dumb question.
When you approach a stranger, they are a stranger, them being a lady or a man has little to do with what kind of reaction you get.

I'm talking about women (like on the streets) being generally unfriendly.
I'm not talking about women you already know (like at work) being generally unfriendly

them being a lady or a man has little to do with what kind of reaction you get.

I dont know if that neccesarily true or not.
With other guys (bros as I like to call them) they are approachible. With ladies they seem less approachible.

With most guys if your cool with them they are usually cool with you. You can go up to the guy and say eg. "Hey Brother. ......you have a cigarrette or light?" and usually you get alot more positive response than with women.
With women on the streets they seem to give you the cold shoulder. Like it seem some dont even want to give you the time of day. Let alone street direction.

(At least thats what my current perceptions are).

There are alot of freaks out there. We have to keep our guard up. Kinda spoils it for the nice guys, but that's life.

I'm not like that Henry. I am very friendly and some of these people can take that as a weakness and 'test' you. We females have to be very careful....much more than a man. I have had a stranger put his hand in my pocket in the middle of a fast food line. I don't comprehend that and when I asked my friends what they would have done even my males friends said they would have punched him out. I 'kindly' removed his hand. Talk about strange people.

Oh the streets....I give directions and am very friendly but I am also on guard. If someone asks me for a cigarette I am walking, smiling, and saying that I don't have it at the same time....nothing more needs to be said.

[shh!]

I have become more friendly as I've aged because nowadays, most of the males that speak to me aren't trying to get in my pants.

[misombra]

i am mostly friendly. mostly.

I would have probably broken the guys wrists and fingers. What a ****ing creep. If one of my friends that were a girl had something like that happen to them I would definitely step in.

[Henry123]

If it is a safety concern it makes alot of sense. Its true there are creepy guys around.

I agree with you there bro.
I wouldnt want that to happen to any of my friends or family members.

You could've prosecuted the guy for sexual assault.

[miSSleepy]

o come on... there's no reason to cry "sexual assault" if there is none. Unless the guy put his hand down the arse pocket and grabbed at it.

[shh!]

Males have no idea what it's like to be a woman... I bet every female on this board has a similar story to tell, and probably more than one. And they wonder why we are unfriendly.

I'm sure many do.
Even as I guy I ran into a few weirdos in my life.
Most of them happen when I was a kid. And a few other times.

And they wonder why we are unfriendly.

It proves to me it doesnt pay to be a nice guy. My friends even tell me that.

What do you mean...can you explain a little more? I don't understand.

I love nice guys, in fact...that's who I look out for. I don't need a mean aggressive man....(a little assertiveness works for everyone though ).
