    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.
