It's a trap fellas. You don't approach women in public anymore especially at a museum. Next thing you know you are spending the rest of your life combatting the fall out of that time you went viral for being a "creep at the museum". Best to call the non-emergency number and wait for a professional.

Got it, don't approach anyone ever.
Considering the general consensus so far is that it's better for a woman to approach a wild bear than a random, unassuming man, if that's the best game we've got, I think you're right.
thanks for keeping you defeatism and poor reading skills off the streets where someone else could get hurt. might be time for a glass of water and a stretch, bruh. ya'll deserve pro help with that depression et al., when you're ready.
feel free to make another unkind and unfunny reply if it's what helps your ego survive another 24 hrs. hopefully you have an expressive or constructive hobby as a possible alternative..
Glad I could be of service
you may have a headpat, optional.
for real though, recreational third spaces are better than transit or errand-necessity third spaces for a casual "hello isn't it interesting around here" chat.
attending social groups around interests helps take the guesswork out of whether people are cool to talk or no.
not that any of that would help anyone who leads with self-centered whining or skipped too many showers.
yeah, i know it's kind of troll-feeding, but there are probably other people reading who might still have some hope to stop eating incel kaka and turn it around. G.I.G.O..
I'm not trolling you I just really disagree with you, and honestly I think you're being kind of a jerk but this is just let me and people are people.
i have an info sharing compulsion that makes me obnoxious to people who didn't really want a helpful reply at the moment. found my niche in DnD and study groups, but i still piss off people irl when they want to complain without being offered solutions or encouragement.
i might not have jerk intentions, but it can be jerk behavior if i misread the room hard enough.
thanks for engaging in earnest.
people are definitely people. Do you like bellcurves?
Thanks for the response, I'm perfectly down with agreeing to disagree. I like passing some points back and forth, seeing if it moves my needles or their needles. There's always room for me to change, but I'm in it to improve myself and other people so sometimes I just need to move on to the next thing.
Cheers!
I am just tempted to print out that wikihow thing onto 15 pages, approach someone, and start following it step by step, reading it from the paper.
Do it. Obviously stop if the person isn't responding well, but that's some primo performance art
cool, yah. as long as the audience can decline and leave, it's a performance. Otherwise it's harrasment -- fortunately the other article covers the finer points of avoiding cornering people or behaving like a stalker pretty well.
Honestly it might actually be funnier to do it on a street corner at nobody and everybody. And be sure to pick a place that's friendly to performance art
yes!
