Follow-up should be about becoming the manager of a McDonald's and realising that this small amount of authority over people allows you to make their lives miserable.

I've had a couple of arsehats try this on me.

Unfortunately i grew up in a much nastier neighborhood than they did and have a tendency towards violence i have no problems advertising

Back in the day I lived in the outskirts of the city where buses would run rarely. Many times when I arrived home late a woman would also drop off. They mostly reacted in the same way as OP describes.

I tried to imagine having to be afraid like that all the time and it's horrifying. The planet is populated by animals larger and stronger than you who might, or might not behave violently without provocation.

I'm not going to rape you. I'm a little boy!

As a tall man who likes to walk at night, I have long understood that women alone at night do not wish to encounter me. So when I happen to find myself following a woman down the street, I will either slow down, cross the street, or stop and look at a sign or something for a minute to give her some space.

In a dangerous and shitty world, a person has to find subtle and quiet ways to express care, compassion, and solidarity. It costs me nothing to make a woman feel safer.

This is the way, and good for you.

Purposefully making women afraid they're about to get assaulted is abhorrent.

You da man brother!

While working i am occasionally in parking garages which can be dark and creepy. If i see a woman walking alone I'll try to make some noise like pulling out my keys. People with bad intentions will be stealthy, hopefully they get that I'm not a threat

Amusing if fictional but if in real life, this is seriously messed up

It could be on Sumerian clay tablets my dude, it would still be about threatening rape for amusement

Have you ever seen !linkedinlunatics@sh.itjust.works? This community is that (mostly) but for 4chan. Upvotes don't mean supporting this garbage.

It's all shits and giggles until anon ends up in a 'man vs bear spray' scenario

So everyone here is saying fuck anon and I agree, but I agree because they are aware of it and intentionally doing things on purpose to exacerbate the situation.

But like, if you're a physically larger dude (maybe even cursed with a hint of melanin), and you've got to walk behind a woman at 2am.. it's just a shitty situation for both people, where both of you feel like you have to do something you shouldn't have to do (women feeling the need to run, defend themselves, or cry for help, and men feeling the need to change their route, stand around and wait until she leaves, or do something awkward and potentially more scary like announce their presence).

I'm definitely not advocating for women to be less cautious on the streets at night or anything like that at all, it's an unfortunate reality that they need to stay vigilant and aware to remain safe. It just really sucks that the way it comes across a lot of the time does little to protect anyone from any actual harm, and just makes normal people feel like shit for making someone feel like they're about to get raped.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
