Car just drove by and one of the guys in it made the πŸˆπŸ‘… gesture out the window at me.

Not sure if it was an observation based on my aesthetic, or the threat of a 🐰good time🐰, but either way...guys, this is why y'all're still single.

@alice I never realised how bad it was for women until my wife had me follow her at a discreet distance while she was jogging on her own. I learnt why she only went jogging with me and that many men should not be allowed out into the world with supervision.
@rbphotographic @alice I play a GPS game where I bike to zones IRL, stand still for 15 seconds and then rush to the next. My problem is that it's a very common jogging route and when I start passing the same woman the second time I'm getting a bit uneasy since I know how it looks... Luckily the forest is full of sidetracks and lately there is new zones popping up so it's possible to choose different routes. Earlier I just took a break while planning a new route.

@rbphotographic I'm out a lot in the area since the zones are everywhere and so far I haven't seen a single bad behaviour against women. I know it happens because it has been a couple of cases on the news that ended up in court for assult but I have never witnessed even a whistle after a woman so I guess we are lucky here.

I have also been working in industry jobs that are notorious for it but there was nothing there either. But we northerners are known for being standoffish I guess πŸ™‚

@eq it's often invisible to folx other than the target.

The only person besides me that saw this one was one of the other guys in the car who pulled a 🀭 as his friend gestured at me.

@rbphotographic

@alice Ah sorry, didn't really understand the symbols and missed the "gesture" part. Yes, that is hard to see. The area I'm in is no cars allowed and humans far appart. I guess people also feel less anonymous so being more careful with what they do in public.

When I was younger I had long hair. There was a guy driving past that from behind took me for a woman. He was was almost falling out of his car when I turned grinning at him with a 3-4 cm beard. Found the gas-pedal fast thoughπŸ™‚

@alice And I'm sorry, it's just so very very, *very* hard to understand why people would do such a thing at all. When I was younger I honestly believed the american movies on TV was just fantasy and I still have a hard time understanding that they are some sort of mirror of reality...
