Interesting. What is the logic behind not saying « hi » to females?
I know that this is sexist, but I would at least give them the benefit of the doubt. Not being familiar with these email list, I’m unsure as to the general « feel » of these discussions.
Can you provide more insight?

- bubblewrap 7y agoNot saying "hi" to women as a way of making women feel more welcome. Makes sense.
- wes-k 7y agoIs this person just being nice? Are they going to follow me? This is on my daily commute, is this going to become a thing? Does this person have an agenda? We may feel it is a simple and kind gesture but it isn’t. Because woman are harassed so freaking much they basically always have to be on guard. Never know when a nice person will turn into a creep or worse turn into an assailant. (It was only through my partner telling me her experiences that I learned these things)
- bubblewrap 7y agoPeople who feel like that should seek therapy. Seriously.
- cced 7y agoCan women say « hi » to women, or is the issue only when men say « hi » to women?
