Yeah. I get it. Women totally scream harassment when a man smiles and says hi.

Christ.

I do. But you don't.

You're making it sound like: "Guys should I ever leave the house? What if a brick comes loose off the roof and hits me in the head while I walk out the door and I end up dead or in a coma?"

Explain to me how saying "Hi" to a cute girl will lead to her crying out harassment and the cops getting involved.

Just have common sense and you'll be ok on the streets. Dont be overly aggressive or touch unless you see clear signals its ok (thats why clubs were advised for new guys as you can get away with more and learn how to read signals with less chance of trouble), don't follow women waiting to approach them and give chicks space.

Some will say feminism will get security approaching you...its not really that. Today a loner guy doing something suspicious or acting weird in a public place is going to get security watching you or coming up to you...as people are more afraid of shootings or attacks and a guy by himself acting strange is a bigger red flag. Oh and be polite/respectful at least somewhat. Ive seen day game videos where the guy is reapproching the same chick and jumping in front of her when she walks off blocking her path. That = harassment.

you said not to follow women.

That’s the best reply I got,thanx neo.One query though,you said not to follow women.So I shouldn’t approach walking sets and only approach stationery ones??

The Guardian reported that fines could be around $6,000 as "a deterrent."

“You are a woman in an underground train. I am a man. I follow you. You get off the train. I get off. You get on another train. I get on too. I ask you for your telephone number. I ask again. I ask a third time. You feel oppressed. That is street harassment,” Schiappa said, according to the Times of London.

She said there was a gap in the law between “consensual seduction” and “sexual assault,” and that flirting would remain legal.

“Talking to someone and asking for (a number) will not be considered harassment,” she said.

But the amended law has its limits, Leite explains. “Not every comment is a crime; it has to have sexual context or a pornographic reference. Saying that someone is pretty doesn’t count.”

In Alabama, it's a misdemeanor, punishable by up to three months in jail or a $500 fine, to make an obscene gesture toward someone.

In Hawaii, it's a misdemeanor for anyone to repeatedly communicate with you after you've told that person to stop (up to $1,000, 30 days in jail).

In Illinois, intimidation is a felony (up to $25,000, 2-10 years in prison), meaning a street harasser can't say, "If you don't give me your number, I'll..."

In Iowa, it's considered an assault if a street harasser does anything — following you, verbal threats — that seems intended to cause you fear of injury or offensive physical contact (even if that contact doesn't actually happen).

Guys i'm a bit afraid to approach on streets...not afraid of rejection or ignorance as they don't matter, but afraid what if the girls cries harassment and complains to cops or her parents/brothers/boyfriends/husbands and i get arrested or beaten? As we know some people just don't know the difference between approaching and harassment and one complaint can ruin your life.Is my fear unfounded?How many people have experienced this??
