If people would interfere too soon, feminists wouldn't be happy either. Because that kind of behavior would imply that women are weak and unable to take care of themselves.
- patrickmay 13y agoThe average man is five to six inches taller and forty or more pounds heavier than the average woman. Men are also physically stronger pound for pound. I'd rather take a tongue lashing for being an interfering white knight wannabe than not say something and find out that the woman was too uncomfortable, for all the reasons being discussed in this thread, to extricate herself from the person bothering her.
- throwawaycoder 13y agoIt sounds to me as if you don't have a lot of experience. Neither have I, but I have met women who flirted with other men so that their boy-friends could get in a fight with them. Or women who would claw your eyes out because you hit their boy-friend, even if the same boy-friend hit them a minute ago. But why do I bother - just go ahead and do what you feel is right. Maybe your feeling for such situations is simply better than that of other people. How many times have you tried to interfere so far?
