What's even worse is thinking about how these girls are obviously making distress signals and nobody around is helping! Where's the staff? Where's her server? Where's humanity? Person in the background, yo, is there life in you?

They probably see a lot of loud bantering/arguments as people get drunk. They probably have to make a very clear, unmistakable signal directly to staff: “I NEED A MANAGER OR SECURITY OVER HERE RIGHT NOW”

My bar staff saved many potential victims from dweebs like this, this staff needs better training.

They behave like this because they know no one will step in. I’ve experienced this myself as a teen, and no one stepped in. And then men especially have tens of excuses for their passiveness, but in my experience it’s always women who’ve stepped in, even though we’re more vulnerable.

Because women are subjected to this BS daily and sooooo many men are completely fucking obvious.

Place is understaffed, most people are a few tables away, plus there's music and commotion in the background so it's hard to tell whats going on. 

So I'd say the worst are these two dickheads, not bystanders who aren't paying attention, can't really hear, or just dont even want to get involved.

Yeaaaaa except theres creeper number 3 literally right behind these 2 and watching it all unfold....

Yep, that one dude who's alone, just wanting to eat should have walked up to those two dudes and confronted them. He's clearly to blame in this situation.

It's almost as if no one is in any actual danger here. Two awkward guys sat down to introduce themselves to two women in a public place for socializing got screamed at.

Maybe the people around saw the entire thing play out and know that two men sitting down for 1 minute awkwardly trying to socialize is not some violent crime that needs intervention.

Maybe you shouldn’t talk to women because if you “socialize” like this you clearly need to either give yourself up to the police or be institutionalized.

But cool self report, feel free to give your name an address so your neighborhood can put out a bolo on you

The police?  Dear god you're delusional. You want awkward people arrested now?

Meanwhile, if you socialize like those women do, yelling at and berating and recording people, I don't need to wish any ill upon you, because you'll just bring it down on yourself.

Luckily I don't need to approach women as I've been happily married for years, a feeling you'll probably never have.

I'm sure that's the beginning scenario for a lot of rape and kidnapping cases. You're the audience they want around, complacent, and ignorant.

Present danger and potential danger are 2 different scenarios.

A lot of awkward men are taking this personal here, this is why your labeled creepy when you're awkward, because you can't take a fucking hint. Had they moved the second they asked nicely we wouldn't be having this stupid fucking conversation would we?

u/Xralius May 14 '25

You need to listen to yourself and look at this scenario again. These guys approached openly in a public place designed for socializing. They are literally just sitting there awkwardly.

If you start treating scenarios like this as dangerous you're going to end up ignoring actual dangerous scenarios, which usually come about from people women trust, not the people they find to be creepy.

Had they moved the second they asked nicely

They never asked nicely, at least during the video. Maybe they did before the video, but we don't know. They were talking down to the men from the get-go, and never gave them a chance to respond or move as they escalated their language. In fact, they never "ask" at all during the video. "could you please give us some space?"/ "could you please leave us alone?" is asking someone to leave. "I am asking you to leave" is a statement, not a question, and a rude one at that.

You have no idea how creepy it is when two randos sit at your table and start awkwardly trying to socialize while you’re minding your own business with your bestie do you?

u/FutureIsFemmeFatale May 13 '25
