That's more of an idiot move.

Can you even imagine his response if a gay man had approached him the same way? Dude would be on the 6 o'clock news crying into the camera while covered in blood.

Even when presented with the hypocrisy, they still refuse to acknowledge there is a problem.

Maybe it's safe to assume he's a conservative but you'll be surprised at how many brocialists we have on the left.

I chuckled at this. Surely a single room is not enough?

Lebansraum!

Think of them like children (his debate skills are <6th grader, so he literally is). You have to be gentle.

They're not like children, they're just narcissists.

It's the attitude of: "If I do something bad to you, you should be flattered. But don't you dare do that to me!"

Nah, hit his homophobic ass with the theoretical hyper-masculine leather daddy hitting on him

I recently discovered that, at the beginning of Cheers, Cliff was some five years younger than I currently am, and I'm not happy about this AT ALL.

Cis men experience more of every non-sexual form of violence than cis women on average, to the point where they experience more incidents of overall violence.

A lot of trans women who possess penises are at extreme risk of violence from men.

"Approaching in public" can mean so many different things. What most women have a problem with is being approached in a situation where the man has some form of power over her. For example a cashier or server has to be friendly and smile or she will risk her job. Being approached is uncomfortable, because too many men don't understand it when the no comes with a smile. They are also in a position of power, because they can complain about her or make a scene and get her in trouble.

In this case the TSA agent has some form of power over her and could give her trouble if she refuses. She has no way of knowing if a "no" will be met with understanding or with him holding her up, being insistent, keeping her from passing. That's what makes it especially uncomfortable.

He's at work, be professional at least. He also doesn't know the person, but if he was just some random dude you are still inconveniencing a person slightly. They say no, you are inconvenienced back.

Your workplace is for work, not for interfering with people trying to use your service. You can become friends with regulars and then ask them out if you desire, but you also involve more of yourself at risk in the question.

So just don't. Go to public gatherings or places of interest, where people have a common understanding of at least socializing. Having a friend already diffuses the situation or possible tension that an engagement can form.

A large part of it is setting. If you're at a place people gather to be social, like a party or a bar or other social event, people are more open to talking or getting to know each other. If you're just trying to move through your day in public and are probably thinking about all the bullshit you need to deal withnin our daily hellscape of lives, and some random person interupts to interject and make you deal with even more bullshit, that fuckin sucks. Location, location, location.

"Cold-calling" women for dates in public is kinda sketchy in general.

Put the effort in to getting to know them first. If you are at a point in your life where asking random strangers for a date is your best game, you need to work on yourself.

This isn't bashing you for not being handsome/pretty, or fit, or rich. You need to go out and do things that you enjoy, try new things, and find partners who enjoy the same things, then see if they are open to dating.

Also, mutual friends are the best for getting you a date with someone. It worked for me, and it can work for you!
