Women do not want to talk to you if they have their headphones in, - TopicsExpress



          

Women do not want to talk to you if they have their headphones in, or if theyre reading, or if they are on public transportation. Countless times when Ive ridden the bus or the train, men will aggressively ask me what Im reading/listening to, and when I ignore them, they call me names or shove me. Seriously? I dont owe you a conversation, a smile, a good morning. Whether or not you think thats rude, its apart of protecting myself when I am out in public alone. I find that I am very comfortable with your bad feelings about that. I’m okay with you missing out on talking to a potential “prospect.” I’m okay if you feel weird and like maybe you shouldn’t talk to women on the bus or the train ever. I’m okay with you being worried that if you do you’ll be accidentally creepy. Can you spread that anxiety around to the general population? It might make the world a better place. captainawkward/2012/09/15/conversations-on-a-train/
