Unless they're wishing everybody on that street a nice evening...

many years ago on okp, i made a post named "have a nice day."
Oct 28th 2014

'have a nice evening' doesn't exist in a vacuum.

Oct 28th 2014
16
wrong spot.
Oct 28th 2014
22
or maybe more people walk/take public trans in NY than most other cities
Oct 28th 2014
24
I think it's just volume. more people on any given street
Oct 28th 2014

With the volume issue you mentioned

I don't think most men are physically intimidated by other men

Oct 29th 2014
443
      Yeah but that's not what people are saying here.
Oct 29th 2014
460
           a silent smile and nod.
Oct 29th 2014
463
                ^ not about that #creeplife
Oct 29th 2014
466
                     it's not difficult.
Oct 29th 2014
470
                          Hey I agree with you. A smile and a nod would be the safest way to do it...
Oct 29th 2014

                               then choose the safest way. the least obtrusive way.

ask Gradient Lair and Feminista Jones about it:
Oct 29th 2014
465
what does any of this have to do with my point?
Oct 29th 2014
469
      there is no secret racial agenda at work here
Oct 29th 2014
475
           I'm sure it's a class thing
Oct 29th 2014
477
           okay.
Oct 29th 2014
481
           there are quite a few white guys
Oct 29th 2014
483
                I watched again
Oct 29th 2014
489
                     some of the voices sounded whiter
Oct 29th 2014
493
           Black women seem to feel a little less conflicted
Oct 29th 2014
484
                right on.
Oct 29th 2014
485
                I'm not talking about the street harrassment issue
Oct 29th 2014
491
                     iHollaback seems to address this on the page w/the video:
Oct 29th 2014
495
                     I can work with that
Oct 29th 2014
498
                     In New York it's largely black and Latin and poor
Oct 29th 2014
499
                          then why does street harassment happen in places w/o black
Oct 29th 2014

Oct 29th 2014

So nobody is gonna point how bad she is? The pop woulda triple took
Oct 29th 2014
467
HMMM . . . yeah this could be staged
Oct 29th 2014
471
yes, some of them seemed that way to me. Im just not to type to believe
Oct 29th 2014
473
      you have women in here telling you this has happened
Oct 29th 2014
497
           Never said it doesn't happen. I said some of the video looks staged.
Oct 29th 2014

Hollaback addresses this on the page w/the video:
Oct 29th 2014

really really easily dismissed
Oct 29th 2014

Oct 29th 2014
515
      oh shit, i see now that your point is that
Oct 29th 2014
513
When's the last time those kids raped you or a friend?
Oct 29th 2014
512
      you're trolling. This has nothing to do with rape.
Oct 29th 2014
514
           it doesn't b/c no Girl Scout has raped you trying to sell cookies.
Oct 29th 2014
516
           you're trolling, as you normally do when it comes to issues that you are...
Oct 29th 2014
521
                why do you think this is not about rape?
Oct 29th 2014
526
                     You can discuss rape if you want to in connection to the overall topic.
Oct 29th 2014
532
                     b/c you weren't raped by the ppl who've 'harassed' you?
Oct 29th 2014
535
                          because I'm not challenging the mindset of victims of street harassment.
Oct 29th 2014
539
                               cool.
Oct 29th 2014
555
                     i still think the police analogy works here
Oct 29th 2014

                          *sigh*
Oct 29th 2014

                               i can find women who think a lot in the video is meh too

                                    okay, Ric.
Oct 29th 2014

           why not?
Oct 29th 2014
523
           First of all..
Oct 29th 2014
529
                you made a series of false or meaningless equivalencies
Oct 29th 2014
537
                     like I said, take it how you want.
Oct 29th 2014

           Rhetoric maybe, definitely not trolling though.

Oct 29th 2014

                     dont you see how the simple hello becomes frustrating & offensive
Oct 29th 2014
562
                     I understand how it's frustrating and annoying, but not offensive.
Oct 29th 2014
637
                     just. smile. and. nod. silently.
Oct 29th 2014
566
                     did that same man say "hello" to the guy walking in front of her?
Oct 29th 2014
584
                          You'll never persuade anyone arguing that saying "Hello" is dehumanizing...
Oct 29th 2014
631
                               hi. (c)
Oct 29th 2014
633
                                    No. there was no sexual connotation. It's odd to think there is.
