What does your gender have to do with it?I'm not a man, so please don't take your vitriol for the opposite gender out on me.
After all, you seem to believe that stalking and harassing women on the street is not a bad thing. So I find your declaring you are not a man to be bizarre. No one actually cares if you are a man or a woman. What? You think that because you are a woman you cannot be a misogynist? There are many women who make excuses for the bad behaviour of misogynists who think that it is perfectly acceptable to harass women on the street.
In case it has escaped your notice, no one cares what you are. What we do care about is how you present yourself on this site and thus far, you are like the shill for the women hating crowd. As I said above, poor you, people in general believe that stalking and harassing women on the street is a bad thing and the thinking population believe that what happened to this woman in the video constitutes harassment, because that is exactly what it was.
So are you going to avoid answering that question some more? What was she doing to draw attention to herself as you claimed she was doing? Where does this happen in the video? How exactly was she drawing attention to herself?
Do try to keep up.I'm still waiting for you to back up your claim that the men featured in the video *only* say 'Hello' and 'God Bless You' to women.
I view the actions of the men in that video to be sleazy and constitutes harassment. You are the one who has been blathering on about how it is just men saying hello to her..
I am judging them by their actions in the video. By how they look at her, react to her, stare at her, leer at her, even following her asking her why she won't speak to them. You know, judging them based on the very obvious actions they undertake towards her in the video.Or are you willing to admit that your statement was little more than conjecture? Do you know these men in real life, or are you simply judging them based on sexist stereotypes?
The footage of the guy who follows her, after talking at her and then speeding up to catch up with her when she walks faster to try to walk away from him and walk right in her personal space starts from about 50 seconds into the video. Then of course comes the guy who keeps at her about why she isn't speaking to him and keeps offering to give her his number for her to talk to him and has a go at her for not talking to him because he is too ugly for her, even though her speeding up and trying to walk away from him was a pretty obvious signal that she was not interested. I mean, I get it, this is perhaps acceptable behaviour for you and heaven knows how or why you may think this is acceptable. How many more excuses can you scrape up for bad behaviour and the harassment of women?I didn't see that in the video. Do you have the raw footage which actually shows the man stalking her for 5 minutes, or is this more conjecture on your behalf?
Now, I want you to show me exactly how and where she drew attention to herself in the video as you accused her of being. And why wasn't the guy who was walking just in front of her with the camera hidden in his bag harassed at all in the same way by the men just saying "hello" to her?
Go on Tali89. Don't you think you have avoided supporting your argument long enough?
