I acknowledge there is a point to be made with the video in the OP, I just think it was executed piss poorly.

The low socioeconomic HOOD culture is not representative of all men in all cultures, period.

If I see that someone shows signs of similar interests or whatever I'll just talk to them, they're not interested they say so. Easy as that. That's how communication works you know.



You probably aren't from new york.

People in new york don't say shit to strangers unless they are selling them something. If this was a guy, it would of been 10 hrs of silence.

It's bull shit and it should stop. The intentions of all those "have a nice days" were cheesy cat calls. Supah weak shit.

I honestly enjoy the friendzone, less drama, less shit to worry about, i havn't dated since me and my ex broke up in 2011, at times i've attempted but backed off cuz, really relationships can fuck you up, and since i deal with Bi-polar disorder, anxiety disorder, AND manic depression, for me, the friendzone is the best way for me to go lol,

Men and women are wired so fucking differently, it's crazy.

I've struck up conversations with strangers, or made it obvious that I'm checking someone out. I mean why is a nightclub different to the street? They're both public places. You can't say men cannot speak to women. I mean, why shouldn't a approach an attractive woman, in all honesty?

She might not appreciate my advances? That's fine, tell me that and I'll go for on of the other 3.5 Billion women on planet earth.

I'm not apologizing for (or stopping) that kind of behavior. It has been reciprocated plenty of times, too.

I must admit, the advances became more welcome the more attractive I became. I also started receiving more uninvited attention from women. I'm not kidding, like sitting at lunch with my dad and these girls are leaning out the car window waving and trying to get my attention. Also while I'm at work trying to do my job, I serve hundreds of women a night and often I'll receive a comment or something. What does that tell you?

No, he doesn't
It's not about saying "hi" to people on the street or flirting with women.
He has the right to be a "creepy douche"? WTF?

Not a single one of you have said how you would react if a guy walks next to you for five minutes.
If you're so thick you cannot see the difference ask the women around you.

so one guy walking next to her means that the whole video is harrassment? a guy saying hello, a guy complimenting? thats all harrassment correct? in fucking new york city down town..? pls
And yes refering to the goofs on reddit saying that guys are scum etc. ur goddam right he has the RIGHT to be a creepy douche. U dont have the RIGHT to comfort. And dont forget. GIRLS DO THIS SHIT TOO look at the video heskman posted. As for a guy walking next to me 5 mins. IN NEW YORK!? I couldnt give any less of a fuck. Its new york. And one guy was a creepy douche. Maybe 2 or three. Id like to see the whole 10 hour video instead lf this chopped up horseshit of a few instances... LIRLLLLL :laughing:

I'll put it like this, girls grow up whining, complaining, cutting their wrists saying "i'm not pretty enough wahhhhh nobody loves me wahhh my daddy's brother tocuhed me wahhhh" and then a nice stranger offers them candy and OH MY GOD HE'S TRYING TO RAPE ME CALL THE COPS!....


no but in all seriousness, females complain all the time that they don't feel pretty, but a guy compliments them and suddenly "all he wants is sex" and when it's a girl complimenting a guy it's "he has money she's a gold digger"

no, fucktards, how about accepting that maybe, people are actually nice for no reason sometimes, without expecting things, how do i know this?

i live in Florida, in a fucked up city full of druggies and weirdo's, i've had plenty of random people do good things for me.

when my mom left, the next day i walked 15 miles to fill out job apps, by the way, Florida is notoriously HOT AS FUCKING SHIT, 15 miles in the sun here is a fucking massacre, well, in this time, i had 2 different total strangers help me, the 1st one, gave me a bottle of water, the 2nd one, about, an hour later, saw me walking, and stopped at a gas station, bought a hot dog and 2 gatorades for me, stopped, and gave me a ride the rest of the way home, neither one of them asked me to help them with anything.

other times? i went for a walk one day, again, the Florida heat is fucked, i think i may have walked about, 8 miles, idk, on my way back, i was out of money, and was feeling the effects of the sun, at one point i gave up, sat on the sidewalk in some shade, some lady drove by and and saw me sit down, turned around and offered me a ride, i told her i was fine, but i guess my face was red as fuck and i didn't look to good, so she was persistant in offering me a ride, not twice, but 3 times she offeredm the 3rd time i got up and got in the car.

now, switch shoes a moment, a guy see's a girl in the same situation, on the verge of passing out in the hot sun, offers a ride, suddenly the girl thinks all the guy wants is sex?

YES, i know there are some fucked up John Wayne Gacy types out there, but not everybody you meet is a psychotic serial killer trying to rape you, somebody offers you a compliment, accept it, why do people gotta shed so much negativity in the world? why can't people just attemopt to bring upon a positive attitude? be peaceful? loving? stop trying to turn kindness into battles.
