Disagree. Hollerin at ladies is fun, I'll always do that if I'm single. And yeah you may buy them a drink or 2, but at least you'll have a vibe before committing time, effort, and money into actually going on a date.

Tinder and those apps do have their lane and benefits, but committing to e-hookups as opposed to real one on one interaction? Not me man.

They get catcalled and harassed 20 times a day (because it takes less confidence to shout disrespectful one-liners than it takes to open a convo) but they don't get genuinely approached often. Most guys don't have it in them.

Yep, most women (especially the more attractive ones) are NOT being genuinely approached like that. Catcalled and online yea, but being stepped to like a MAN? naw. Not as often as yall think.

Its hard and it takes balls to do it. Ive done it often and i still get a lil nervous beforehand. But you're rite, most dudes dont have it in them to randomly walk up to a woman in a walmart or kroger and strike up a convo with the attempt to pull. Thats why threads like these are made so frequently:francis:

Where do u guys live where the term "street harrassment" is even in these chicks vocabulary. :what:I swear ive only heard about that online.

Yall really letn that make yall stop talking to women outside?:dwillhuh:


They out there bro.:francis:


A few months back, my co-worker tried to talk to a girl while we were leaving our job. She gave him the meanest stare I'd ever seen and started walkin away real fast. Then another woman who saw it told us, and I quote "OMG guys that's a woman. You can't just harass her like that" and shook her head at us like we did something wrong.

Me and dude were like :dwillhuh: wtf does that even mean? All he tried to do was talk. Granted, that's the only time I've ever witnessed it but it was ridiculous.:beli:


It hasn't stopped me from hollering though, just made me be more careful.

It's all about learning how to read social cues and non-verbal communication. I'm autistic and I have had lots of trouble in the past on picking up social cues, reading body language and other stuff. The whole point is to check for the ones checking for you. I don't just approach a girl because she looks good. I need more than that. I like a challenge, but that's not the kind of challenge I think is appropriate.

Learning to read people's behavior is like looking at patterns for me. If I see the right patterns, it's a green light. If not, most of the time I keep it moving. Since I adopted this way of doing things, I approach women far less than most normal rates, but when I do approach, it's 100% every time - because majority of the time it's been anticipated (correctly) that my interest is reciprocated. If it's not, I just apologize and keep it humble, regardless of the reaction.

I don't catcall, whistle or any of that shyt - I also don't touch girls I don't know (mainly because I don't always like being touched by people I don't know). I recognize because I've been disturbed on the few occasions I'm not interesting in socializing when I'm going about my business on the street (yeah, even by girls) so I know how annoying it is, but it can also be dangerous for women. Read #YouOkSis on twitter to see what I'm talking about. Not isolated incidents. Having more social awareness is usually the answer. Because it didn't come innate to me, I had to do the research and actually learn to read people (even people watch) to really get it down, so now I can easily mitigate these problems. The next step for me IMO is educating other men how to navigate these things and why a lot of stuff is problematic to women. I expect lots of ":cape:" comments along the way but you can lead horses to a trough - doesn't mean they'll drink. They'll continue to be thirsty :manny:
i really don't get any social cues or hints or body language. i dont cold approach or yell or whistle. i dont have the looks or the social awareness for that honestly. the few time i have approached, id take the rejection and keep it moving.

Read. People watch. More importantly, build a social circle and chill around them more often. I was fortunate that I made friends somewhat easily (I was good at rapping and making music so that helped). Google's your friend if you want suggestions, even a fukkboy site like Reddit is extremely helpful. Rejection's not the problem really, it happens all the time.

I'll recommend some stuff later, some good reading to help regarding body language and social cues. Especially if autistic, it's imperative.
