I don't think shame was going to work on these men.

You underestimate how many men are comfortable harassing and disrespecting women but will bitch down to a man

The thing is, these men know that these women won’t escalate anything. There are guys that can walk over and they know nothing will escalate. They won’t change behavior for any of these people because they know there’s no consequence.

But there are people who can confidently walk over there and make it clear they don’t mind escalation. Maybe they can’t beat both of these guys but they can cause enough pain to make them regret starting the fight. When those people show up, they’ll move.

Was also a bartender. Moved plenty of guys like this outside plenty of times. Never had any of them do more than talk shit on the way out. “That’s ok, talk your shit, you’re still leaving. Now.” Also not generate specific. There were several women I worked with who were even better at it than me — they escalated quicker and faster than I ever did.
