Protip: touch women on the street lightly to have a higher success rate. Or isn't this sexual harassment on the street?

Rule 1: be attractive.

Rule 2: don't be unattractive.

Repeat the study with some unkempt, ugly, overweight guys and see how things go.

"Study found that the men who touched women lightly on the arm were twice as likely to be reported to police as men who didn't"

I'm annoyed at this because of all the recent allegations. I haven't ever tried this because everything I've learned from feminists and society is 'keep your hands to yourself'.

In a French study, young men stood on street corners and talked to women who walked by. The men had double the success rate in striking up a conversation when they lightly touched the woman's arms as they talked to them instead of doing nothing at all.

Anyone here familiar with French culture enough to say how French women feel about being approached on the street?

You'll never know, it's almost like gambling except instead of just losing a couple hundred dollars, your entire reputation could be ruined.

Don't touch people randomly, in general.

Not really what the article says.

Is there any actual data to back this up or are you and this arricle just speculating?
