Personally I'm not used and never approached mixed sets before, always having the assumption from my POV that the men would gatekeep their women against outsiders. However I think there are also guys who don't care and are open minded but I think they are a minority. How do you neutralise men who are gatekeeping?

On the other hand I had occasions where I was with 2 women, we went out and got approached by a guy who was only talking to the 2 ladies I was with and completely ignored me.

Anyway, I would like to hear your experiences with dealing with mixed sets.
