If you’re a man and you’ve done this, why? Did you think it was romantic?

What if we were sleeping, busy with work, or not at home?

Why do you think you have a right to expect us to drop whatever it is we’re doing in the comfort of our homes to entertain you? Did you think it would be cute to put someone in an awkward position in the name of making a grand gesture?

If so, you watch too many romantic movies.

It’s generally considered rude in most cultures to show up to someone’s residence without prior notice, warning, or actually asking if it’s okay first. It makes us feel unsafe and keeps us on guard when we should be at peace and resting. This is why we don’t give men our addresses.
