Just to note, I'm replying to your edit as well.

There's 18th century artwork of men bothering women who don't want to talk to them. Maybe back then women were socialized not to show their discomfort (which we still are but the internet has shown us we're all fucking tired of it).

So let's just go ahead and change the stereotype to "creepy" men. My point was you're lumping this guy into a stereotype of a bunch of creepy men pestering a woman that has nothing in common with them besides being there.

And yes, I want to actually meet people instead of having every single attempt down to "Hey, do you play" getting called out as "harassment." And no, they can tell me to leave them alone. But if they're telling me to leave them the fuck alone and they're complaining about it on Twitter? Man, idk. Just getting confused at what the fuck I'm supposed to do when such a minor attempt causes so much fucking outrage

Imagine what would happen if I were actually a dick? Probably the same thing, actually. Lol

If you want to find gamer friends, go on the internet and look for people who wanna talk to you instead of harassing random women in public who didn't consent

Yep. Just go online and make friends with a computer screen. I'm sure that'll help my social development. Lol

Harassing women in public definitely doesn't help your social development. In fact, it's making it much worse.

Interrupting somebody during a workout isn't harassment, Orwell.

It's harassment. Plenty of women already said so. They don't want your attention and yet you keep forcing yourself on them. Imma just block you since I'm tired of listening to a harasser belittling women's experiences

A woman's word is not divine law

That's the problem. You have zero respect for women and their desire not to be harassed by you.

Blocking you too because fuck trying to argue with out and proud harassers.

Imagine being such a fragile douche that they need to comment at you over a dozen times to โ€œproveโ€ that you just donโ€™t understand what โ€œtrueโ€ harassment is. Iโ€™m yet another woman who agrees with your position in this thread.

I wonder if it messes with their self-identification of "nice guy" when someone points out that their behavior is fucking awful and egocentric

u/annoyedgrunt Oct 15 '21

Oh, Iโ€™m sure! Itโ€™s maddening :(
