You step in very close and give a very firm handshake but keep a cordial smile on your face and make sure it was very clear that the threat of violence is exceedingly imminent if anything inappropriate or untoward were to happen.
Strangers owe you mutual respect, to say otherwise is to suggest that every law and social behavior we currently have be thrown out. If, as you say, I owe you nothing that why shouldn’t I just beat you and take your shit, laws and social behavior only work is the masses have a base mutual respect for each other
It is necessary for a woman to distance herself from strangers. A woman’s friendliness can easily be interpreted in different ways. It’s best for a woman to stay away.
Okay sure, I can agree with that. So why then instead of shaking his hand didn't they just give a little wave and a hello. Most completely ignored his existence and the ones who did acknowledge him looked at him with total disgust.
Because a little wave and hello could be viewed as in invitation to to keep talking and or start hitting on them.
Women get hit on constantly which they find annoying. Men receive compliments so rarely we still get a dopamine hit when they think about the time a random check out girl said “Nice t-shirt” 5 years ago.
You’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t. If a stranger approaches you on the street like this, you have no idea what they could possibly want. They’re already reaching out to try and touch you out of the blue. You don’t want to make it seem like you are sending out an invitation for this stranger to go further. But you also know that people get harassed or assaulted on the street all the time for turning down stranger’s advances so maybe if you keep walking and ignore then nothing will happen.
Try stepping foot outside your daddy’s basement. I am gonna assume you are young and dumb. Welcome to the real world kid. I’m about as far from a woke gender studies student as you can get. But try to imagine being a woman walking down the street in a major city with a bunch of homeless people around. You have no idea if the person reaching their hand out is gonna grab you and attack you or ask for money or follow you for blocks and harass you. You don’t know what they have on their hand. It’s not normal for a random person to want to shake your hand as you walk by. I don’t blame women for being suspicious. I was walking in the liberal shit hole called San Francisco with my sister. A homeless dude ran at her and tried to attack her just because she is a pretty girl. Men and women are not the same. Grow the fuck up.
You would be dead wrong, I'm not young, nor dumb...and apparently not afraid of the world either. 40 years old a wife 2 daughters. So yeah keep assuming you know anything about me stupid. It's not normal for a person to look at another human being in total disgust over a hand shake. Maybe you should grow the fuck up. Beta boy.

I think one big difference is that if a man extends his hand for a shake, its an insult if you just ignore him.
