Feminists: Men Need Consent to Say Hi to Women

It's gotten to the point now where I can't last longer than 5 minutes into these videos because the women in them are just so fucking stupid it's unbelievable, that's if I have a lot of patience.

how can you get consent to talk to a woman without talking to her first?

she might as well wear a burka. that's the whole point of them: to signal to a man that it is not ok to speak with this person.

I have come to realize there is a definite class element to the catcalling debate. It was traditionally only appropriate for a gentleman to speak to a lady if a mutual acquaintance introduced them. It was possible to introduce yourself if you brought a gift. This tradition carries on with buying drinks for women in bars. If the attention is not desired, the gift is rejected traditionally.

All very aristocratic. Poor people cant afford to hang around in bars buying drinks for strangers. They don't have the same degree of social connections to enable formal introductions. Because of this, there is less formality to introductions and more talking to random strangers on the street.

If you call their bluff, you'll see they're full of it. Say "Ok, let's forbid men from talking to women, make it required that women have to be the ones who initiate every conversation" and you'll see that they don't want that either.

Fart-rape, eye-rape, and now hello-rape.

The sooner we stop all this communication the better. Inter sex relations are toast anyway. Its over.

Yiss! Less than 2 minutes in and boom! Comedian Bill Burr! XD Too bad he married a feminist. If you listen to his podcasts, you know exactly what I'm talking about (the shifts in his perspectives when his wife's on).

4:25 Men experience more traumatic events on average than women.

Anyone have any hip and trending triggers they'd like to suggest to me? I feel like I've been missing out of this getting triggered phenomenon...

"I was crying and hysterical looking for my cat, and this guy comes up to me... 'why are you crying?'" [tone implying this was wrong]

Got it: If I see a woman who might need help, I should avoid her.

That's okay, I didn't want to talk to you anyway (direct toward women suggesting this)

I want to be clear. I am probably never going to be falsely accused if only because I limit my interactions with them. I work from home and really only have my GF, my daughter and my GF's Mom to be around. My problem is really not worrying whether I will, at 44, have some misfortune not of my creation.

As I age the principle rankles the worst. I'm watching this half-Black glam youtube advice star... I'm listening to her and I recoil when I try to envision her imparting her benevolent worldview to her offspring... I imagine her softly reassuring her 4 year-old daughter that the feelings she has are called triggers. Or that her 6 year-od son is triggering her daughter, someone else's daughter, or God Forbid, her, herself.

I only have a few decades left on this earth. The effects of toxic femininity on me wanes as I get older and I withdraw from participation, as I should. But we have millions of young people who seem to have no coping skills whatsoever but are happy to be the first and the loudest at the advice seminar. This is the problem, Ladies and Gents.

The problem isn't Rape Culture. It's actually Culture Rape. We used to be respectable, the world over. Now we're a navel-gazing laughingstock. Our men look ridiculous, taking orders from cut-outs and our women look absurd, reaching for some infantile idea of perfection: extreme glamour, coquettishness, eternal youth and showily wielding perverted power.

Poignant.

More feminist nonsense! You see a woman in trouble, it's your choice to help or not.

2015-10-13T16:54:23+00:00

It won't be long now before you'll require consent to BREATHE near a woman.

Suddenly, it'll sound to her like you're a horny pig that wants immediate sexual gratification or you're masturbating beside her.

God that video was obnoxious. I'd rather just watch the source material thanks

Drakaris · 2015-10-13T11:03:48+00:00

If a bit... errr... woman, requires consent to talk to her, she doesn't deserve that "hi" to begin with.

rottingchrist · 2015-10-13T13:12:26+00:00

Good. Pleasantries and greetings are wasted upon women.

abacabbmk · 2015-10-13T13:16:14+00:00

Its ok, Id rather talk to real women. In fact, real women tend to say hi to others.

Funcuz · 2015-10-13T13:21:02+00:00

No...just roll with this. Really.

Think about it : If a man can't even say hello to a woman without her consent then there's no possibility that men and women could interact at all. Now, take this a step further : How long before every single person forced to try and follow this rule would just say "Fuck it. This is ridiculous." ? And where would the blame for this ridiculous state of affairs eventually be traced back to ?

So, like I said...do it. It's just one more nail in their coffin.

windkirby · 2015-10-13T16:18:54+00:00

Men should need consent to ask for consent to say hi to women too.
