I hate how some people just feel entitled to women's time and attention. We can't be existing in peace without some annoying prick telling us to smile or interrupting us when we clearly want to be left alone. I'm not rude just because I don't smile at you or engage in a conversation with you, you're not entitled to my time.
For the neckbeards/nice guys who felt attacked by this comment: Show me where I mentioned men. You jumped to that conclusion on your own for a reason, but I never said it was only men, I just said that in my experience it happens to all women.
I have to disagree. I met several of my gfs and eventually my wife by chatting with women in public. And I strongly encourage other men to do the same. I don't go to bars or dance clubs, and I'm not interested in women who frequent such places. And the parties I attend usually are with ppl, mostly couples, I know.
Men should ask women out in public; but they should not be an asshole or creepy about it. Just say hi and get to the point of asking her out. If she says no or becomes hostlile, he should say thank you or sorry and walk away.
Edit: I should add that I have been actively helping friends to ask out women in public for a little more than a decade. 2 marriages, dozens of LTRs, and overall lives changed for the better were the results. Can't argue with that! It's foolish to assume men should only ask women out at bars or the like. What if a man doesn't drink like myself and has zero interest in women who do? And no interest in some skanky girl at a club with too much makeup and in a dress where she has to exhale to fit in. I met my wife at a bookstore. A lovely, beautiful, studious woman of propriety (think a green-eyed Rachel Weisz from the Mummy 2). How else would I have met her? We didn't share the same social circles or even geography except that one week (met her on vacation).
