got a ban on reddit for this. Dude was saying Ukraine should give up the stolen land for peace. So i asked him for his address so i could occupy one of his rooms.
he did not like that
I chuckled at this. Surely a single room is not enough?
Lebansraum!
The original Bri Larson tweet makes me think of a recent post on lemmy that showed younger men are less and less likely to ask women out in person. Some people in the comments said “hey it’s ok to approach women in public just be ok with them saying no” but when I read what women say about being approached in public (like bri larsons tweet here) I get the feeling that I should never approach women in public because I’ll make them feel scared.
I’m not talking about the top tweet where a guy is memorizing your address, that is creepy, I understand that, but the guy in the bri Larson tweet wasn’t being creepy, just shooting his shot right? Or am I way off here?
I think you should try talking a bit before asking for someone’s number, at least.
Don’t actually be creepy, but you can never control how people feel about something. Something that’s completely fine to someone one day might be the tipping point on some other day.
If you hit on someone just based on looks they might not take it nicely because they might be getting a lot of that!
He’s at work, be professional at least. He also doesn’t know the person, but if he was just some random dude you are still inconveniencing a person slightly. They say no, you are inconvenienced back.
Your workplace is for work, not for interfering with people trying to use your service. You can become friends with regulars and then ask them out if you desire, but you also involve more of yourself at risk in the question.
So just don’t. Go to public gatherings or places of interest, where people have a common understanding of at least socializing. Having a friend already diffuses the situation or possible tension that an engagement can form.
Here’s the thing, work takes up like half your day. If you aren’t allowed to be a normal human at work, you’re going to be a miserable person. That being said, a normal person doesn’t ask for a phone number after a few sentences. They at a minimum have a conversation long enough to establish that having a second conversation would actually be an enjoyable experience. That’s probably not gonna happen at a TSA checkpoint and that’s fine.

Compliment people, be normal, do it without further engagement. That is the issue, men tend not to speak up unless interested so you are easy to read. Women like surprises, it’s not shooting your shot if they already saw your gun.
Learn to appreciate the beauty of all before thinking of capturing one. You will have to communicate with them. Compliment something unique, something deliberately done, and something genuinely appreciated. By them or by you.
Just speak up truely.
I thought they were threatening him with flowers? He must be reading too much into it.
Men (especially young boys) are more likely to be victims of random violence.
Women tend to receive violence from friends and family in the home.
For whatever that’s worth
Oh no. Not violence. How awful.
… master Jedi?
How was it called? When people are so close to getting the point it hurts, yet still don’t get it? I remember there being a subreddit about it.
Selfawarewolves
I miss that subreddit
Yep, that’s it. Thank You.
He would feel threatened if a creepy woman TSA agent did this to him too. It’s much more rare, but it’s a better argument for these kinds of people. I’ve seen this response countless times. Banned from r/conservative for “threatening” users lol.
Think of them like children (his debate skills are <6th grader, so he literally is). You have to be gentle.
Not everything is a debate. The dude is just an asshole.
Actually if you’re a Democrat you have to act perfectly all the time. This guy’s a Republican so it’s totally fine to be a child.
his debate skills are <6th grader, so he literally is
Now that’s a logical fallacy.
Literally is now just an intensifier in most contexts. We’ve lost the war

They’re not like children, they’re just narcissists.
It’s the attitude of: “If I do something bad to you, you should be flattered. But don’t you dare do that to me!”
Nah, hit his homophobic ass with the theoretical hyper-masculine leather daddy hitting on him
Satisfying to argue but doesn’t work either on these 6th grade debate ability folks. You make a 7th grade argument, not an adult one if you want to help him.
Well, you see. The man has a penis, therefore he is at higher risk of violence than women.
Wait, no. It’s the opposite.
Cis men experience more of every non-sexual form of violence than cis women on average, to the point where they experience more incidents of overall violence.
The fun part is when you start digging into where that violence is coming from…
For amybody experiencing violence, how is that important?
To identify the source of the problem? Address it?
A lot of trans women who possess penises are at extreme risk of violence from men.
And trans men experience struggles with an epidemic of both sexual abuse and domestic violence, which is basically not studied at all.
Yes, but they are still women, and I specifically was referring to men with penises.
Checkmate, atheists.
I know, I was just being the required-by-law annoying leftist.
He must be baiting
It’s the implication!..
I AM CORNHOLIO
DO YOU HAVE TP?! Rrrrolios
Exactly what I was thinking from just the title, heh.
Good to know there are so many other degenerates here.
No, just gonna send some flowers.
Yeah, that was immediate comeback as well.
Would have really tied the room together.
Violent flowers?
he made her point so perfectly well, and yet still can’t (and won’t ever be able to) see it himself.
Do you actually think this is real?
