It appears that it is not as safe to be a young black man in America as it is to be say a middle aged white man.

Is it the same for young, attractive white women in America?

Take Laurel, for example.

By all accounts, a very attractive young woman.

For her, simply walking down the street on a sunny day in short shorts, a tight t-shirt and no undies....just a pretty, smiling California girl on her way to have her vag waxed...can be scary.

Especially if she locks eyes with a stranger...and smiles at him.

Why are young black men and pretty white girls...targets?

Is it safe to be a pretty white girl in America?

Like - a week or so ago I'm walking to an appointment wearing denim cutoff shorts, a stretchy tee, and sneakers - not a pantyline to be seen. The sun was shining, I had a coffee in my hand, I felt good. I look up as I walk and lock eyes with some guy walking the opposite direction. Because it seemed like the polite thing to do and he seemed normal, I smiled a mild hello type of smile - nothing flirty in my eyes or intentions whatsoever. The kind of smile you give the supermarket cashier. He smiled back.

I go on my way, sipping my coffee. Turn a corner and notice in my peripheral vision that he is FOLLOWING ME. I walk faster, he walks faster. Eventually I ducked into a 7-11 to try to lose him, and to avoid leading him to my waxing salon. Hid watching out the window near the candy aisle for 5 minutes before he gave him waiting and left.

And yes, I get it - I should've just kept my eyes glued to the ground never making eye contact else I give the impression that I'm hungry for strange dick. And yes, I should be covered head to toe because showing skin obviously means I'm "asking for it".

But you know what? It's 2014. I should be able to go out on a normal day in shorts and a fucking t-shirt. I just wanted coffee and a Brazilian - I didn't want to have a "teachable moment" where I explain to a full-grown man how society and women have led him astray in his thinking because honestly I don't think that's true. The vast majority of guys (in the U.S. at least) are respectful, don't yell out rude things, don't inappropriately touch women. The vast majority of men realize that chicks aren't there for purely for their entertainment. Most guys check chicks from afar, respectfully, unless they get signals to move forward.

Chances are, that guy was just a normal guy who misinterpreted my smile for more than it was, or maybe he has some major thing for sharp-faced little blondes, or one of a million other non-creepy-serial-killer reasons why one might follow a girl. But shit happens, to women, every day, and you can't be too careful. It's the minority of scary guys that fuck it up for the rest.

I understand this is a sex forum and everyone's all feeling sexy. And what I'm saying is not sexy - and I apologize for saying something not-sexy on a sex site. But the truth is that I - a woman - do not choose my daily outfits to sexually excite strangers. I suspect that I am not alone - that every day many other women also do not wake up every morning and pore over their closets thinking, "What can I wear today that will result in the maximum number of stranger boners?"

That's all.

No, it's not. It is not even safe to be female. Why do you think so many women become obese? Protection.

it's no protection at all.

BUT

some victims of abuse do try to make themselves less attractive, in irrational self blame, consciously or subconsciously. weight gain/loss, bulky & baggy clothing, drop in personal hygiene standards.

I am aware of that aspect. That's not how Noor's comment read, that's why I was asking for her clarification.

i read it that way... but, rereading, i can see it isn't clearly that.

I've developed a habit, i'm not sure if it's good or bad, of assuming the best or worst interpretation of a post depending on the standard level of smarts/idiocy exhibited by the poster.

So weak that if it beat an egg I'd be shocked.

But I guess it gets boring ragging on poor Pink and her dead puppy all day long.

Cheer up! Another vulnerable woman will be along for you to pick on anytime now. :rose: :rose:

Hey, it's a real social issue and you gave a great personal example yesterday.

If you're offended, okay, you're offended...but you have no reason to get pissy with me.

A smirk.

A cheap joke, but one that works in the context of the thread.

As Laurel suggested yesterday, the dude was probably just looking to smooth on her.

But at the same time, all a pretty girl in her summer clothes has to do is smile and make eye contact and many guys think it means she's looking for some action.

Just as all a young black guy has to do is walk down the street with some attitude and he's "dangerous".

something I've experienced twice: being in a club with my guy and another guy just grabbing my other arm and trying to drag me away from him, leading to a bizarre tug'o'war on the dance floor. that's an extreme example.

i'm not sure where the white bit comes into it, or the America bit. women of every hue get harassed all over the world.

For the love of Jesus, ignorance is like a plague around here.

Black women and unattractive women get raped, too. Rape is about terrorizing a person, it's about power and control, it is rarely about sex.

Please stop this.

We're not talking about rape, we're talking about the day to day stuff attractive women encounter.

Please feel free to read the OP.
