Tbh it ain’t that safe for men or women right now... a guy visiting my town got stabbed to death for absolutely nothing. So as a woman I feel even more unsafe. Girls, get yourself a rape alarm from Amazon or somewhere, and make a pact with your friends to never travel anywhere alone.
You mean, will it ever be safe for ANYONE to be out alone at night? No, because the world isn't a safe place. Wishing it was it is either fatally delusional or unbelievably arrogant. The "safe" place you live in is an anomaly, not the norm. The norm is violence, struggle, and blood. We're just lucky enough that as Americans, we can distance ourselves from it if we have an adequate amount of wealth. In the really real world, nowhere is safe and the glass house we live in can be shattered by the tiniest pebble at any given moment. In fact, we inch closer to that moment all the time.
You mean is it safe for white people to go out at night. Here in the city I live in a white guy got jump by black people so in that case you are wrong Mrs. I bet a black woman would go out and nothing would happen to her. If white guy or girl they would get their live sin danger.
You have to move to place where it feels safe and project confidence and don’t get drunk ever in public. I live in places lethargic are safe to be out. Society is not evolving in a good direction because the family unit is degraded, schools lack discipline and values and moral constructs are removed by displacing religion. You are counting on good strong parents.
Not only women are subjected to sexual assaults or any kind of crime in night time, but men are subjected to them too. It is just that men are not highlighted as much as women are. The women men equality is not in our attitude yet. Otherwise both the genders would have gotten same coverage.
Nobody is safe anywhere. The bitter truth. You need to be vigilant for yourself.
No…because the girl walking beside you could have a D- 🍆. The “girl” standing beside you at the sink could have a 🍆. The girl sharing the stall with your 8 year old daughter, whose using restroom by herself, may have 🍆. NEVER AGAIN will a woman/girl be safe on the street, in toilet, little girl stores, etc.
-Women:self-imprisoned by feminizing men. Pretty damn Ironic ‼️
You know last Friday I went to a walk in clinic for a minor medical check up around 4pm. By the time it was 9pm, I was home, I get a notification on Twitter by the police in that region saying that a man in his 20s-30s died of a gun shot wound around that area shortly after 8pm. It just goes to show no one is safe.
Although I do admit women and girls are bigger, easier targets for sexual purposes and or murder. I think for guys/men who die it’s probably more of an isolated incident related to drugs, gang activity or money. Crimes have increased no doubt, I am hopeful that the future will get better ❤️🩹 and just have to put that trust in God.

Safe... for women? Are we to take that as you thinking its safe for men? Night time on the streets is when the criminals come out and its not safe for anybody... not even those same criminals, depending on the situation.
So will it ever be safe to go out on the streets alone at night? No, not for anyone.

I'm not making it a "whataboutism", you're making it a gender issue when it isn't. Which, by the way, indicates the seemingly universal tendency of women to completely disregard men's well-being in the attempt to fix some perceived inequality.
There is no inequality in this issue. It's not safe to go out on the streets alone at night whether you're male or female, young or old, strong or weak.
And yes, I understand that "that's not what we're talking about right now", but really it's never what gets talked about. So I talk about it whether you want to or not.
The thing about it is, regardless for women or men, lots of bad eggs come out at night.
I don't think it would matter if you're female or male at that point, muggers would just want your personal belongings and cash. Pretty sure they wouldn't care what gender someone is.
That WOULD be nice!! Maybe, some day but, it might be a few thousand years from now. About 20 years ago, I heard a news story about girls at one of the local Universities getting raped on their way back to their dorms and was trying to figure a way to start some kind of escort service just to see to it they got back "home" safely. The campus police are stationed right across the street from the dorms but, obviously, that doesn't help a lot!

Is anything really safe for anyone? Seems like safety is mostly just a state of mind. Lots of people go out alone at night every day. Lots wear cute clothes. Lots go to bars and get drunk and most are perfectly fine. Not everyone wants to live their life afraid of everything all the time.
My hope is that it would be, but realistically I don't see it beginning so, and I don't even see a trend of improvement. In the meantime, I just make sure I'm always available if my female friends ever need someone to escort then anywhere any time of day
If you keep voting liberal and democrat then the street will never be safe. Remeber how they are soft on crime? Yeah you love how rapists get bail and then rape another woman. Look
LADIES you are the ones who support soft on crime policies so deal with it.
Finally someone noticed she is making this all about women. As if guys don’t get mugged……or as if some women don’t lie about being on birth control or plot to launch false rape accusations….. all in the dark as well.
Oh. Ok. Whataboutism. That’s a cute communist term. Who taught you that one? Rachel Maddow or your women’s study professor? I will derail feminist garbage any time I have the opportunity.
Listen to yourself. Sound like a spoiled child. How about this? Women are no more in danger than men. If they are, I couldn’t care less. Men and women are equal now so they can fight off their own attackers.
No I used to walk alone at night when I lived in the city. Most times I had no problems but I can tell you I've had some close calls with dealing with gross men. As annoying as it is your better off walking with someone at night.
Yeah it sucks that women always get preyed if there alone at night even if they are in there own home. I don't know other than putting every woman in a self protection class to feel safe and sometimes that might not be enough. I always tell my girls when she has a girls night with her friends I say stay in well lit place with people, stay with at least one friend and if you are in a situation where she's alone call me to pick her up or follow her in her car.
It never was and it never will be. However it is much more dangerous for man. The numbers vary but the the only truly horrific thing happens to women and girls and more is rape. There are worse things than rape happening to man and boys on multiples of occasions compared to women and girls.
Do you feel unsafeas a women? Most likely you wouldn't dare go out as a man...
I'm sure we will be. Society has been consistently getting better for a while. Way back when, murder was way more common and people had to be careful what they said to people. Nowadays people don't really have to worry about that, at least in first world countries. I'd imagine some day in the future, possibly far into the future, harming others would more or less be a thing of the past.
No! It will never be safe. That is just the way it is because you cannot change human nature. That is one advantage of being a boy, a young man, or an old man. If you look like you have no money, no one bothers you regardless of how rough the neighborhood; day or night. As a boy or young man you may be approached by homos but, although a few can be annoying, they are never overly aggressive.

Is it really safe for men to be out alone either? Crime is usually a crime of opportunity.

Miss england doesn't have a problem walking at night because she never gets out of her pop up tent unless she is with the king hehe
Usually when a girl walks with a man nothing bad happens to her and no one will try to get near of her...
That's why when a girl gets married, she will never have the problem to walk at night anymore because she will be always with her husband safe 😊

Make a topic about it then.
About something that's just common sense? No thanks. Nobody with a brain needs to be told that going out alone at night can be dangerous.

Yeah and I’m sure living in a conservative town where they want to control our bodies is so much safer.
Take your pick rapist or keeping your rapists baby. Lol
Will it ever be safe for men to go out alone at night? Who gives a fuck about men though right?
No it won't be, because law breakers both men and women, will always exist regardless of how many laws we put in place.
Finally someone noticed she is making this all about women. As if guys don’t get mugged……or as if some women don’t lie about being on birth control or plot to launch false rape accusations….. all in the dark as well.
@Exterminatore this isn’t a whataboutism thread. Stop trying to derail it. Yes men are in danger too but that’s not the subject of said topic.
