Does this prove why women want safe spaces away from men? Also yes



Does anyone here actually care about how dangerous it is for women to walk alone at night or is it all just shite to go with your political beliefs? *big brother voice* find out next time, you decide!

For the purpose of the video the reporter who I will add was attractive and fit wore an outfit that would attract more attention than a woman walking in a hoodie and loose fitting track bottoms

Women get hassled but the reason the reporter got approached 20 times in two hours was a combination of her looks and what she was wearing if she was a hoodie the numbers would be much lower

I’m actually insulted but not surprised by your response to me
There is not a man on this forum or doubt in the real world that not only cares about women but has stepped in so many times to see women and girls don’t hassle hurt or abused
I’m the man that women come to when a drunk dick won’t leave them alone
You talk about click bait head lines the 20 men in two hours is one of those headlines

Not all men are animals

There is also a much deeper reason to this issue
Humans are attracted to the opposite sex that’s inbuilt and part the need to mate to repopulate the human race
But with dating sites you tube and schools and television shows ,we have come to believe that you can just walk up to a stranger ask them out or hook up with them without it being a problem.

I always worry about women. See if I'm walking through a park in the winter when it's dark, and it's just me with an older lady, or old lady walking in front of me..I always want to say it's ok, just me. Walking past..but I always think that might scare them more. If I saw a big group in front of us both I would always make myself known and ask if she would like me to walk with her until we got past them..

A young woman though, well I reckon she would just look at me as an old pervert in the first scenario so I swdinatly dont bother, but I would still again do the same as the older women in the 2nd scenario..


May I ask the TIBB ladies how you would react to a total stranger creeping up to you in the dark saying, dont be scared, its only me walking past. Or how I could word it better and make myself known on behond them better.

Ita horrible just walking past cause you can see their shoulders rising in fear sometimes as they realise their is someone behind them

I’m saying for the benefit of her report she was approached by more men because of the way she looked and the way she was dressed than if she dressed in a hoodie , 20 men in two hours gets more views than 10 men in two hours


I’m not saying women shouldn’t dress the way they want to I’m not defending any dick heads that think it’s ok to go up to women and hassle them
The fact is , it’s not safe for women to be out walking at night so they need to protect themselves as best they can.

Sorry, but for the human race to continue, women, and also men are going to have to put up with unwanted attention at times.

Does that involve leering groups of either sex. No, of course it doesnt, but some kids wont be on this earth right now if initial advances hadnt been made in the street.

But things aren't how they use to be , especially if there's groups of drunken guys nearby or approaching a woman by herself. It's not exactly the time or place to chat someone up. Crime and assault has gone up ,cities & towns are alot more dangerous now.

Even if all you want to do is reassure the person you're ' no threat' , you have to be so careful how you tread .... as people now have to have their wits about them ....so they're a little on edge.
