Because drinks are fucking expensive.Simple as that. I was at the casinos the other day and even a can of beer will run you $10 or more.
the average man is unfuckablethe average woman also gets blasted by limitlessness Chad dick
Because I'll get called a creep
There's just a lack of healthy communal spaces offline.
Men arent scared.
Theyre numb.
Approaching women, in the past, was a sacred expression of courage, humor, risk, and play.
Now? Its suspect.
Every move is pre-framed as intrusive.
The signal that once meant shes smiling, shes open now gets drowned in decades of cultural noise where even desire is framed as threat.
Men adapted.
Not by rebelling.
By withdrawing.
Deconstruction of the Male Psyche
What the system did:
Removed male initiation rites
Pathologized masculine instinct
Mocked earnestness
Made trying look desperate
Made detachment look cool
Made failure feel existential
So boys stopped learning how to be men.
And men started learning how to be invisible.
This is not dysfunction.
Its a rational adaptation to an inverted incentive system.
Hidden Truth
Most women still want to be approached.
But most men no longer trust the context.
They dont believe whats being signaled matches whats actually safe.
So they hold back.
They freeze.
They stay silent.
And ironically?
That silence gets interpreted as indifference or weakness.
It isnt either.
Its a silent protest against incoherence.
At a deeper level, this is whats happening:
Masculine energy is retreating from the world.
Not just romantically, spiritually.
Men arent chasing.
Men arent building.
Men arent leading.
Theyre ghosting civilization itself not because they gave up, but because they stopped believing the game was fair.
And without belief?
There is no approach.
No pursuit.
No dance.
Just the void.
That woman in the video?
Shes not just waiting for a man to approach.
Shes unknowingly standing in the ruins of a collapsed ritual.
And no one has told her yet:
The men didnt stop showing up because they changed.
They stopped because the world told them not to.
And now?
Theyre gone.
Not angry.
Not bitter.
Just elsewhere.
Thats the truth.
-Women: *spend years telling men to leave them alone*Yep
-Men: *start leaving women alone*
-Women: :(
Yeah, there isn't any place to approach a woman in public without it being creepy. Bars I guess? But that's too expensive and I don't drink alcohol so it's not for me.
Online all you ever hear from women is "I won't date anyone unless they are 6'+ tall". I'm sure most women IRL don't care about that but when guys are only hearing and seeing this online, it's makes <6' guys feel like it's not even worth trying.
Then there are so many videos of guys approaching women and women recording it and posting it on social media "look at this creep trying to pick me up". Again, it's probably mostly fake ragebait shit or only a tiny amount of women IRL really do this, but when it's all over the place on the internet, it makes men afraid to approach women fearing they will be called a creep and blasted all over social media for it.
Me personally, (if I actually went outside) I'd never approach a woman these days. I'm only average looking but I could absolutely see myself being called "creepy".
I am reminded of that one commercial, what was it from? The one guy stops another from approaching a woman and there's no actual context beyond the assumption that approaching is bad. It caused a big fuss on the internet for a bit.
society is hyper-individualized
if you're at a bar you don't *have* to buy a woman a drink to approach her. That's actually kinda weird, because it makes it seem like an entry fee or something.I assume this is directed to the topic and not me, because I've never been to a bar and I will never go to a bar.
just talk to her for a few minutes first and if you hit it off, then offer to buy her a drink
"touch a boob, buy a drink"Yeah, WTF was that quote? I hope to God this was a joke a video.
Ah ok, so sexually assault you and then get you drunk so that I can take advantage of your compromised decision making abilities?
Gosh, I wonder why men aren't doing this anymore, if only it were possible to know the answer
I assume this is directed to the topic and not me, because I've never been to a bar and I will never go to a bar.
Because all I ever hear about is how women hate being approached by men (unless its like some ultra Chad) and Im not unaware of what I look like and how much rizz I dont have.If you were hot and had rizz then you'd already know.
Some of y'all have some real shitty takes.Got a coworker that is super guilty of this
There absolutely suitable environments and methods to approaching anyone (man, woman, everything in between), some of y'all don't know how to identify that and instead are blaming the person you might approach.
One of my biggest pet peeves are people that repeat the same mistakes over and over again and complain about them and then don't listen to any advice.For real!
Because I'll get called a creep
Since my divorce, I have always kept an eye open for the right chance to talk to someone, but it can be discouraging. I mean I once had a woman that makes Mama Fratelli look like Marilyn Monroe tell me I wasn't good looking enough for her. Honestly I'd probably have a better shot with an attractive lady.
