Are you happy that men are not approaching women anymore in public or do you want it back?

[Lynx122]

When I was growing up it was still more common. At least people talked about it a lot more and also did it once in a while. But now I don't really see anyone even claim that they're approaching women except people who do it for content. For me it's not a problem I need a strong mental connection and I'm not someone who wants to play the field and I'm kind of a loner anyway. I found my girlfriend online because she responded to something I wrote. So it fit my weirdness I guess. I've never felt like I want to approach a woman but can't when Im in public in the last few years. So I wanna know do you feel the same?

I'm happy the way things are

I'd prefer it if men approached women more

Please tell me what place is this so I can move there, lol. Men in our country still do this. They would even catcall or worse—stalking. 🫠

Switzerland haha :) People are pretty reserved here and in the city people just walk by each other most of the time. :)

[SeriouslyNotSerious]

@Lynx122 Nice. I love Switzerland now. It must feel safe walking there 😌 unlike here in Asia lol

When I get approached in public I like it, brightens my day.

[Lynx122]

ok good :)

Where is it that men are not approaching women in public? That sounds odd.

[Lynx122]

I mean like on the street not in a club or in a bar.

[DishLady]

Guys still sort of do that. For example, a guy will still flag down a cab for a lady carrying too many packages or hold a door open and smile and chat. It’s nothing serious, obviously, but a nice moment.

Also, guys will still smile and wish a girl a nice day if she walks confidently and looks good. It happens literally all the time.

Around where I live, it depends...

- Older & married men approaching for romance is not welcome. Period.

Young men approached me as well, but they asked for money. Lol.

So in both cases. Nope.

I get approached pretty often even tho I'm married 😂

[Lynx122]

Oh ok :)

[dustybiker2]

I'm often chatting with men in public. Either or of us start it. It would sometimes be odd to share a space with others and not comment to break the building awkward silence.

[mandyfire98]

I'm in a relationship so it doesn't affect me at all but I'll say this, I still get approached from time to time so it hasn't totally stopped apparently.

[sheenagwapa]

in my culture i remember a suitor would come to our house to visit my aunties. they would talk in the balcony for hours 😂😂😂 that's what i witness growing up. i reqlly love that.

[Nikki1989]

What world do you live in?

It is obviously a very different world than mine. Perhaps you need to get out more.

[Lynx122]

Yes it must be that way :)

[CrabCakes11]

Please don’t approach me in public, outside of places that people go to for that sort of attention. At the club? Sure. At the library? Fuck off

[LazerBean]

I haven't noticed a change so I'm fine with how it is

[JosyJosy]

They still do it and ai appreciate it when they do. As long as they act normal of course.

[IslaTheWitch]

they still do it...

[WhitneySnow]

I’m happy the way things are
