    Just go join a hobby club filled with guys, like electronics, radio, astronomy, FPV drones, RC cars, etc… Or if you’re more of a physical person: paintball, camping, fishing, shooting… Don’t do audio though, a lot of audiophiles are fucking dumb.

    As a man, i just wait in front of a mural with angel wings and wait around for the million of wonen who take their profile pictures there.

    I wonder if that’s Willow Run, I was just there. Totally would have lied about the planes to her. No on second thought this has hard barriers around the planes, WR there’s nothing.

    I’d be careful, weirdos who wish the war went the other way feel emboldened lately

      The volunteers at my local air museum all were just excited about the planes and the little demos they had. They also had a huge Rosie the Riveter section because it was the bomber plant filled with ladies building planes to kill Nazis.

    Should try that one at your local Games Workshop. Maybe ask about that Heresy you have been hearing so much about…

    I have a picture of my wife posing in the children’s cutout in the back, I jokingly asked if she wanted a picture with it and she got excited and ran over to pose.

    I mean, we were dating at the time, but one of the first dates I took her on was the Wright pat airforce base museum.

    This would absolutely have worked on me when I was younger. You know, if I had enough confidence to talk to women when I went to museums alone…

    It’s a trap fellas. You don’t approach women in public anymore especially at a museum. Next thing you know you are spending the rest of your life combatting the fall out of that time you went viral for being a “creep at the museum”. Best to call the non-emergency number and wait for a professional.

          Got it, don’t approach anyone ever.

          Considering the general consensus so far is that it’s better for a woman to approach a wild bear than a random, unassuming man, if that’s the best game we’ve got, I think you’re right.

            thanks for keeping you defeatism and poor reading skills off the streets where someone else could get hurt. might be time for a glass of water and a stretch, bruh. ya’ll deserve pro help with that depression et al., when you’re ready.

            feel free to make another unkind and unfunny reply if it’s what helps your ego survive another 24 hrs. hopefully you have an expressive or constructive hobby as a possible alternative…

              for real though, recreational third spaces are better than transit or errand-necessity third spaces for a casual “hello isn’t it interesting around here” chat.

              attending social groups around interests helps take the guesswork out of whether people are cool to talk or no.

              not that any of that would help anyone who leads with self-centered whining or skipped too many showers.

              yeah, i know it’s kind of troll-feeding, but there are probably other people reading who might still have some hope to stop eating incel kaka and turn it around. G.I.G.O…

                I’m not trolling you I just really disagree with you, and honestly I think you’re being kind of a jerk but this is just let me and people are people.

                  i have an info sharing compulsion that makes me obnoxious to people who didn’t really want a helpful reply at the moment. found my niche in DnD and study groups, but i still piss off people irl when they want to complain without being offered solutions or encouragement.

                  i might not have jerk intentions, but it can be jerk behavior if i misread the room hard enough.

                  thanks for engaging in earnest.

                  people are definitely people. Do you like bellcurves?

            cool, yah. as long as the audience can decline and leave, it’s a performance. Otherwise it’s harrasment – fortunately the other article covers the finer points of avoiding cornering people or behaving like a stalker pretty well.
