If the only men who approach you are people who don’t respect boundaries, then every man you meet has similar traits, and then it’s easy to think all men your problem when it’s not. Just because you’re easily lost in conversation doesn’t make everything a strawman. It’s not a magic incantation that makes you look smart.
Oh that’s a great question, I have no idea. I’m just watching the divide happen and am glad my partner and I found each other. I’m sure it’s not good for the fabric of society though. It’s like we’re moving further and further into isolation tendencies.
I guess the easiest solution would be the return of “handkerchief dropping” or some equivalent thing.
Pretty obvious, really, outlaw women using any kind of headphone or earbuds, or just electronic devices in general. It’s pretty sad that in this day and age that even needs pointing out.
I was going to respond at least somewhat affirming what you said and then I saw who you linked. Gross. Can’t stand BilleRaeBrandt. Nothing but an apologist for misogyny.
I don’t know who that is, I simply searched “men not approaching” in YouTube search. There’s no shortage of similar contradictory content. Women are not a monolith, so it stands to reason that some genuinely don’t want to be approached at all, and some do, but since we’re not psychic, that just leaves respectful men not approaching as a default position.
I guess she is a youtuber or tiktoker or whatever who makes short videos about hetero relationship issues that (as far as I have ever seen) always blame the woman for why things have gone wrong with their dating attempts or existing relationships, etc. It’s never the man’s fault.
You’re the same person who commented headphones in means don’t approach. That’s not what I’m talking about. Go to YouTube, search “men not approaching women” and behold, many women reporting that they aren’t getting approached when they feel they should be. So the feedback I’m hearing is, well, women should go and approach men, which men seemed fine with the idea, but women seemed appalled at the notion. If you want me to link some compilations I will.
I mean I don’t care either way, I already found my partner, so you all do you.

The only guys who are going to approach you are the guys with no boundaries. Which is going to feed the confirmation bias.
“Women are so unreasonable! Amirite, guise??”
What confirmation bias? The confirmation bias of this straw woman you have here?

The not talking to people with headphones IS the boundary!
What do you think the solution to that problem is?

Yes, exactly as it should be.

Yes if you search the internet for something you want to hear you will hear it
What’s your point? Everything exists so nothing matters? Why are you even talking then?
My point is if you’re obsessed with something, google search will always agree with you, correctly or not
I have no idea what your purpose in this conversation is.
