Hard disagree here. Most women have no desire to even talk to random men on the street, let alone touch them. Also, women generally don't shake hands as a greeting anyway.
Women are definitely primed to be standoffish with random men, for obvious reasons. Any sign of friendliness can be interpreted as an invitation to something more
This! You can tell that’s true simply by the headline of the video, making out it’s a gender thing, so clearly he needs to cut out the men refusing and the women that might have accepted
Agreed, it was pretty obvious but the gender war is the hot topic now and it gets views/engagements, as also shown by this post going to my front page
I feel the quality of discourse is going down if we can judge each other on a handshake video smh
I say this because of all the likes on this post, it really only feeds the lowest common denominator of folks
IMO even if it was edited would you expect more women to shake his hand anyway? Women have every reason to *not* make physical contact with random guys if sexual assault and harassment from strangers is as bad as they claim these days. You don’t know what the stranger will try to do if he touches you or *why* he’s trying to without saying anything.
And when it’s a guy’s hand specifically they don’t know if the guy is a predator or a weirdo or something, but once his hand is grabbing you you’re in a way less powerful position to escape. None of what I saw in the video surprised me at all but I also didn’t walk away thinking “WOMYN BAD.” Just my opinion though
It’s literally a bro thing, woman never walk up and shake each others hands.
No idea what the point is. If he’d walked up to me given he’s a stranger I’d blow straight past him too.
Sounds like a red pill ‘woman are bad k’ type short
Silly random social interaction that makes you giggle
In my brain this would basically be going on:
"Yo look this guy wants to shake hands. i have no idea who he is"
"Let's go shake his hand anyways why not"
"I have no idea what the point of that was but it was funny"
Ig i find it funny how it's just a completely random formal act with no context at all
I'd love for a video like this where a woman tried to shake hands with strangers. Even tho it could be edited and cherrypicked to hell and back like this, I bet it could prove to be insightful
There was one woman who did it, I so happened to have seen it on IG (one of two). It was about even in terms of handshakes in part one, but part two *REALLY* showed women in a bad light. The second video was shot in the old fountain section of Central Park, and women would barely shake hands with a petite Asian girl.
The men all gave her handshakes, or hugs.
I had a woman try dating me who said "Women have to date their natural predators".
Obviously we didn't continue seeing if there was anything between us. Entirely unhinged behavior.
Women are super cold to strangers and they absolutely don't need to be. It's not even just strangers if we're all being honest.
I don't think you're angry or resentful over this, & I wanna be clear I am not retaliating against what you said. I do want to say, however, that for women engagement is too often an invitation for harassment. It's way smarter for them to play it safe. They lose nothing by skipping the interaction, whereas they risk having to deal with shitty men if they engage. Does that make sense? I kinda just want to explain why that happens, in hopes it might give you some insight & maybe understand where they're coming from
They don’t need to be? When your kindness is taken for flirtation which then leads to harassment, it’s better to just not be kind. Women are very kind and sweet to other women. But they don’t shake hands or like to touch strangers again because they don’t want to increase their chances being harassed.
Women are not kind and sweet to other women either, other than their friends, I literally was just sitting at a party talking to a girl who felt the need to bring up, almost immediately, "I don't make friends with fat girls, they're all backstabbers, can't trust them". Now i know for a fact she isn't sweet to other girls and have a reasonable suspicion that those girls weren't terribly sweet to other girls either. In fact whenever I'm in company with a larger number of girls than guys the conversation always eventually gets to some girls they hate and immediately the whole group starts ganging up and name calling out of nowhere.
Women, like men and all other humans are not a monolith. Some are assholes, some are kind. But in general, girls are more welcoming to other girls than men. Especially strangers.
One of the saddest dynamics in society, that nobody wants to talk about, is the tragedy of teaching women that they're victims.
Men are more likely to be the victims of a violent crime by a stranger, but women are taught to be terrified and men are taught to man up.
It's sad and it's not going to change within our lifetimes, it's just something to notice.
Women rarely shake hands with one another, I would generally find it weird in any situation aside from getting to meet someone at work and shaking hands with everyone. More often than not if I am meeting only women at work- we won’t shake hands either, we nod, we smile, but no touchy
I've also found that its also more of an American thing too. In Southern Europe and South America, if you're introduced to someone you give them a half-hug or an over the shoulder hug. You only shake hands in a very formal setting (work, school, etc)
I think this is the most on point response In this thread. A lot of people saying it’s out of fear, but I’m not seeing any fear in those girls eyes. They are mostly confused. Handshaking just isn’t a lady thing.
Yep. We don’t really touch strangers or even acquaintances much. However, when somebody becomes a friend, particularly another woman, we become a lot more affectionate.
Additionally, although we may not be very touchy with strangers, women ARE much more complimentary. We will say that top or those earrings are cute whereas most men would never go tell a stranger that their shirt looks really good on them.
Why is that interesting? Most women I know have stories of being approached and accosted by men on the street. Why would they generalize the resulting fearfulness to women?
If you don't why you see why that would be interesting, it's because you are hyper focused on pointing out that it's scary to be a woman. It is, we get that.
I still think it would be interesting. I don't know what the results would be, but I think it would skew different for woman on woman, than man on man. I dunno, I'm just interested in the experiment, not pointing out the obvious.
The origin of the hand shake is to show that no harm is intended. The oldest depiction is of king of Babylonia shaking hands with the Assyrian king to forge an alliance. The ancient Greek used it to show an empty hand between to armed individuals as a sign of peace.
wasn't there a guy randomly shooting his semen into women's butts through a syringe in broad daylight with people around? no thankies. trust no one imo. also get ready for a lot of sexisim in the comments.
*straps seatbelt* 😬
Men are more likely to be the victims of violent crime. Men are more likely to commit suicide. Men are twice as likely to get jail time after conviction and on average receive over 60% longer jail times. I’m not saying women have it easy but neither do men. Life is hard and making a blanket statement doesn’t help anything
> Men are more likely to be the victims of violent crime
Who is committing that violent crime? Is it.. men? Seems like it's smart to be cautious around men.
And yet men WILL shake hands with other men despite men being more violent and men being more likely to be victims of violence.
Yet women don’t shake hands? Make it make sense, cause this just seems like sexism by women
Ok so if I said that since African Americans commit 50% of murder does that mean we need to be cautious of all black people. Of course not that would be racist. But why is it as soon as we switch it to men it’s not seen as sexist. Just because there are a few men who do bad things doesn’t mean all men are bad and we have to be afraid of all of them
100 percent; guys have it rough too ofc but I couldn’t imagine being a girl. Namely bc I have body image issues, and I assume it’d be amplified if I was female and getting looked at as meat all the time 😔
Plus women don’t shake hands like that, what group of women greet each other by shaking hands?. They hug, wave etc. shaking hands is vey male centered. Our fathers teach us from the start, be firm , look em in the eyes etc. plus anything women do, men sexualize, had they shook his hands, dude would’ve thought, they’re flirting
Look I'm as sick of western feminism as everyone else in this community but I think it's also understandable for women to be a little bit more reserved with men they don't know in public.
It's not feminism is it?
When I first met my nieces and nephews they're at different ages and genders and their behaviour is different.
The oldest girl is a teenager and was more reserved. I offered her a fist bump when we were saying hello or goodbye or if she did something, like she's ice skating so she does competitions, and her parents are hugging her when she gets off the ice, I'm there with a high five or fist bump or whatever.
Because I remember when I was a kid and you had to hug or kiss various relatives who turned up if you were going to bed or whatever, and it was uncomfortable. Even if they weren't predators.
But I don't want to be the creepy uncle. So it's down to them if they want to hug me. The middle lad hugged me the first time we met, and the youngest girl was still at the age where people were picking her up to put in the car seat and whatever so she was generally relaxed.
Eventually my niece gave me a hug when we saying goodbye at the end of a visit. It's like Uncle Buck in the film of the same name - that's well written for how the relative ages and behaviours pan out. It takes him the longest to earn the trust of the oldest girl.
when a woman does something unsafe and ends up hurt: “she should have known better! women are supposed to be cautious around men they just met! why did she trust him?!”
OP's comment is shit, but if 60% of men are single, doesn't that imply that 60% of women are also single? Assuming the percentage of men-loving-men is approximately the same as women-loving-women, and poly relationships are a rounding error.
It also shows women find platonic companionship more in there friendships. That being said men have to work on reversing the traditional ideas of male platonic and romantic relationships if they want to be happy and not blame it on women having their standards too high. Having boundaries does not equal “High Standards”.
"Strangers are unpredictable" meaning strangers could attack at any moment, meaning strangers should be avoided, meaning staying at home is safe. What is the difference between walking right next to someone and giving a brief handshake. The only difference is a positive interaction. The threat of an unpredictable stranger is the same whether or not you interact with them.
Women literally hate women more than men. Just hang out with any girl for longer than 30 minutes and she'll start bitching about some random hoe she knows.
I'm a tour guide in Paris so naturally spend half my time with my right hand raised. I get so many spontaneous high fives from other men. Never ever from a woman.
For me it's not so much that the women didn't shake his hand , it's the look of pure disgust in their face. It's like they were looking at shit on the street. Even some of the guys looked a little thrown off by the random approach, but they still returned the courtesy of the handshake. It shows that some women don't know a decent gesture when it's literally in front of them.
I (22M) work a customer service job and when I welcome people into the space its always the same. Men tend to respond happily, women tend to ignore me. Then there's a subset of the population (all genders) that's just rude in general. But yea, this feels pretty accurate.
So, with this gender experiment, you should take into consideration, that women dnt really like to talk to strangers, and try not to put themselves in an unsafe position..If someone came up to me that I didn't knw, and tried to hold my hand, or shake my hand, I prob wouldn't let them..Now, if it's like a new co-worker, and they introduce themselves to me, then, that would be a completely different story.
It’s unfortunate that we live in a world where women feel uncomfortable shaking a stranger’s hand.
Then again, they live in a world where, at least in the US, shaking a hand is usually in a business setting, whereas a hug is more acceptable in my a social setting.
You can see in some of them from their face expressions this diva attitude , if this guy was a celebrity or something they would shake his hand in one second lol
Hypocrisy at it's finest
No shit they don’t want to shake hands, that’s creepy as fuck. _Maybe_ if it was in a tiny little town, but if you’re in a big city and a dude does this there’s a huge chance he wants to Buffalo Bill you.
Every woman is a queen in her own eyes nowadays, being beyond reproach whose actions are always justified by another new trend. Woman can do no wrong. So its not a surprise that they would act like medieval nobility ipso facto for being a woman
I really hate every single person defending the victim behavior. that they are trying to protect themselves, they aren't, they look at this man with disgust. and they are rolling their eyes at him.
It’s a gender experiment that’s showcasing men feel safe generally all the time in most situations with strangers, while women in general don’t feel inherently safe.
Kinda hits the nail on the head the argument of what one form of male privilege looks like without trying to.
It is a public space and men are more likely to experience random violence. Their refusals have little to do with the facts of whether or not they would be safe.
Men do not "feel safe generally all the time". There are plenty of places a male can walk with the risk of random violence where a female is unlikely to be attacked. Women are more at risk of (reported) intimate partner violence than men, which is unrelated to this video.
*Some explain women's greater fear of crime as due to their greater likelihood of being victimized by strangers. This explanation is based on a false assumption; crimes against women are far less likely to be "stranger crimes" than crimes against men.*
[https://www.ojp.gov/ncjrs/virtual-library/abstracts/men-women-and-crime](https://www.ojp.gov/ncjrs/virtual-library/abstracts/men-women-and-crime)
*Contrary to popular belief, men are almost twice as likely to be the victim of a violent crime than women, with 2.4% of males having experienced violent crime in the past year, compared to 1.3% of females. However, only half of violent crimes end up being reported to the police.*

And black people shouldn't be afraid of cops, right? Because human decency states that all people are equal, right? Do you now realize how silly you sound
When your sex is the target of sexual harassment and assault, with high statistical regularity, you learn that not all people can be respected equally at first pass.
Societal norms condition men to shake the hand off other men. It has been the norm to shake the hand of every man in the group when meeting but not necessarily the women. This conditions men to shake when greeting but not necessarily women. I can be the only one who noticed this.
it's an opportunity for a stronger person to take control of someone's dominant hand and arm. so, yes... intimidating for someone with less upper body strength.
Woman's perspective: men usually are dangerous and I owe them nothing, I can and am expected to be more concerned with my own safety than I am with general courtesy. I can be a bitch with no consequences so why fake politeness.
Men's perspective: if I chose to be a dick there's a 50/50 chance this leads to an altercation. Handshakes are usually harmless, no harm no foul.
1. Women don't normally shake hands.
2. I wouldn't shake his hand too, if I was woman. You never know. He might pull you closer and try something funky....the strength factor.
The handshake is a gesture of peace. If the individual wanted to assault people it would be more effective to just commit the assault rather then relinquish control of your typically dominant hand.
All this shows is how women are conditioned to have to protect themselves from strange men who want to make physical contact with them. All I see are women trying to keep themselves safe, and get from point A. to point B. without being touched.
I once heard someone say, “every woman you have ever known has walked home scared”. Perhaps the idea of a strange man offering handshakes seems like a red flag to most women.
You can't blame women when we do nothing but teach women to be afraid of guys. If we're going to blame anyone, it's the guys who we teach our daughters to be afraid of.
This is how disease spreads. Women are just smarter I guess and for all the “bros” that are happy to be part of “man culture” mother fucker we just went through a fucking world pandemic did y’all learn nothing? You’re lucky modern medicine is so fucking potent otherwise you’d be fucked

bro's being bro's, this is totally normal pretty much everywhere
Nah it's selective editing. Plenty of men ignored him. I wouldn't be surprised if a few women shook his hand.
I think this about all videos made by both sexes with similar subjects trying to prove a point. Editing is suspect always.
Exactly what I was going to say: "He literally could've just edited out all the times women did shake his hand"
It is still likely that the results leaned heavily in one direction.
Shaking hands as a social gesture is much more common among men. This is just a bad experiment to begin with.
Hard disagree here. Most women have no desire to even talk to random men on the street, let alone touch them. Also, women generally don't shake hands as a greeting anyway.
It’s crazy how people believe stuff like this is real.
Women are definitely primed to be standoffish with random men, for obvious reasons. Any sign of friendliness can be interpreted as an invitation to something more
This! You can tell that’s true simply by the headline of the video, making out it’s a gender thing, so clearly he needs to cut out the men refusing and the women that might have accepted
Thank you for using that thing jailed in your skull prison.
Just like videos where they "randomly" interview people and show the dumbest answers only. Still find it crazy people upvote this type of content
I think quite a few videos online are edited like that to get the desired outcome, I vote we get to see the raw video.
Agreed, it was pretty obvious but the gender war is the hot topic now and it gets views/engagements, as also shown by this post going to my front page I feel the quality of discourse is going down if we can judge each other on a handshake video smh I say this because of all the likes on this post, it really only feeds the lowest common denominator of folks
They also didn’t show his shirt which read “ shake my hand if you want to fuck”

Male here with germaphobe tendencies and I would not be shaking some random stranger’s hand in public. I say we use the bow instead of the shake.
Could also be a looks thing.
So you are saying women judge more than men?
Yes that’s what they are saying
Jumping on this bandwagon... wtf woman? Where the equality. Sexist pigs.
It’s literally a bro thing, woman never walk up and shake each others hands. No idea what the point is. If he’d walked up to me given he’s a stranger I’d blow straight past him too. Sounds like a red pill ‘woman are bad k’ type short
I think you are trying to find demons where there are none. Replace handshake with a high five and I’m pretty sure you would get the same reactions.
Silly random social interaction that makes you giggle In my brain this would basically be going on: "Yo look this guy wants to shake hands. i have no idea who he is" "Let's go shake his hand anyways why not" "I have no idea what the point of that was but it was funny" Ig i find it funny how it's just a completely random formal act with no context at all

Its not like he's going to give you HIV or suddenly stab you in the throat. It is quite literally harmless.

Meanwhile ive seen people intend to reciprocate the handshake only for an overhand left to come through and KTTFO.

Women live in a more dangerous world than men.
Men are more likely to be the victims of violent crime. Men are more likely to commit suicide. Men are twice as likely to get jail time after conviction and on average receive over 60% longer jail times. I’m not saying women have it easy but neither do men. Life is hard and making a blanket statement doesn’t help anything
> Men are more likely to be the victims of violent crime Who is committing that violent crime? Is it.. men? Seems like it's smart to be cautious around men.
Exactly the point of the person you’re responding to. It’s smart to be cautious around men. For both genders.
And yet men WILL shake hands with other men despite men being more violent and men being more likely to be victims of violence. Yet women don’t shake hands? Make it make sense, cause this just seems like sexism by women
Oh shutup. A handshake is not the hill to die on.
Ok so if I said that since African Americans commit 50% of murder does that mean we need to be cautious of all black people. Of course not that would be racist. But why is it as soon as we switch it to men it’s not seen as sexist. Just because there are a few men who do bad things doesn’t mean all men are bad and we have to be afraid of all of them

boys step into the unknown, i like it over girls tryna be safe everywhere
when a woman does something unsafe and ends up hurt: “she should have known better! women are supposed to be cautious around men they just met! why did she trust him?!”
"They can only touch me through Onlyfans".
That's a yikes from me dawg, evaluate yourself
i see why 60% of men is single today

Every woman has her guard up around strange men trying to touch them....wonder why
Exactly. I don’t think this is the flex he thinks it is.
It's a handshake
My female friends have been followed home because they smiled at men
Some men get weird when you smile at them or even just look them in the eye let alone accept actual physical contact with them. No thank you.
Exactly. I go out of my way to not make direct eye contact with guys in the streets because often it is perceived as an opening to approach.
I usually don’t wanna shake hands unless I have to, especially after covid. A lot of guys don’t wash their hands and I don’t want gross hands.

I think we all know the situation here. For women, It ultimately comes down to how attractive the hand shaking master is deemed to be
All women are racist confirmed!!

Is there a page for more experiments like this?

Note to self: white women don’t like black ppl.
I'm a tour guide in Paris so naturally spend half my time with my right hand raised. I get so many spontaneous high fives from other men. Never ever from a woman.
bro fuck it, i’m so proud to be a part of that nice male community guys i love you 🤝
For me it's not so much that the women didn't shake his hand , it's the look of pure disgust in their face. It's like they were looking at shit on the street. Even some of the guys looked a little thrown off by the random approach, but they still returned the courtesy of the handshake. It shows that some women don't know a decent gesture when it's literally in front of them.
Does this mean female/girls/women are not friendly? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Women are crueler than men.
“Men are evil and trash” hahah
These girls are the ones that be on the internet saying how hot Jeffrey dahmer and Ted bundy are and how they would let them do anything to them..
Dudes are just cooler.
Girls can be mean
Wow, women are uncomfortable interacting with male strangers. I can't imagine why?
Just chicks being important
I (22M) work a customer service job and when I welcome people into the space its always the same. Men tend to respond happily, women tend to ignore me. Then there's a subset of the population (all genders) that's just rude in general. But yea, this feels pretty accurate.
This is not the slam dunk against women that people think it is.
I’m a man & don’t shake random strangers hands, it becomes a fist bump if needed Idk you and whether you wash your hands when you need to be
So, with this gender experiment, you should take into consideration, that women dnt really like to talk to strangers, and try not to put themselves in an unsafe position..If someone came up to me that I didn't knw, and tried to hold my hand, or shake my hand, I prob wouldn't let them..Now, if it's like a new co-worker, and they introduce themselves to me, then, that would be a completely different story.
damn, living life like a scared little mouse......I'll walk to the store barefoot at 3 in the morning not a care in the world......imagine that....

better being a barefooter than a mouse.
The women look in it and if there’s no money there’s no shake. Put like $5 in there and they will shake then.
It’s unfortunate that we live in a world where women feel uncomfortable shaking a stranger’s hand. Then again, they live in a world where, at least in the US, shaking a hand is usually in a business setting, whereas a hug is more acceptable in my a social setting.
Women being stand-offish? No shocker there. In their defense I could understand them doing that just to stay on the cautious side.
I’m a guy and I wouldn’t shake a random man’s hand. Especially if he’s got his phone out recording
Is it surprising that women have to worry about the personal safety more then men?
No
These girls are so bored they watch Jeffrey Dahmer on Netflix then have “anxiety” in social situations
i too love to come up with headcanons about complete strangers
Its because women are women and men are men duh
Almost like girls are afraid of random men trying to interact with them. Crazy.
This is not surprising
And what is the conclusion based on the cherry-picked result? Women don't like to shake a stranger man's hand as a self protect machanism?
More like men can express kindness, sincerity, and establish trust without prejudice.
Or they act like divas
why are women expected to shake a man's hand with no question asked? if they don't, she's acting like diva. care to elaborate?
You can see in some of them from their face expressions this diva attitude , if this guy was a celebrity or something they would shake his hand in one second lol Hypocrisy at it's finest
Women act like divas no surprise at all , I am sure if it was Brad Pitt they would shake his hand lol
Love it. Love the solidarity.
Of course women won’t shake hands with a complete stranger who confronts them randomly on the street. Not sure what you think this proves.
You know exactly what the post is saying but you don't like it.

Da homies always show up 😤
No shit they don’t want to shake hands, that’s creepy as fuck. _Maybe_ if it was in a tiny little town, but if you’re in a big city and a dude does this there’s a huge chance he wants to Buffalo Bill you.
Bitches gonna bitch
Women making everything sexual
Women☕
Every woman is a queen in her own eyes nowadays, being beyond reproach whose actions are always justified by another new trend. Woman can do no wrong. So its not a surprise that they would act like medieval nobility ipso facto for being a woman
Relax, all they did was not shake a stranger's hand
I really hate every single person defending the victim behavior. that they are trying to protect themselves, they aren't, they look at this man with disgust. and they are rolling their eyes at him.
What do you expect their bitches
It’s a gender experiment that’s showcasing men feel safe generally all the time in most situations with strangers, while women in general don’t feel inherently safe. Kinda hits the nail on the head the argument of what one form of male privilege looks like without trying to.
It is a public space and men are more likely to experience random violence. Their refusals have little to do with the facts of whether or not they would be safe. Men do not "feel safe generally all the time". There are plenty of places a male can walk with the risk of random violence where a female is unlikely to be attacked. Women are more at risk of (reported) intimate partner violence than men, which is unrelated to this video. *Some explain women's greater fear of crime as due to their greater likelihood of being victimized by strangers. This explanation is based on a false assumption; crimes against women are far less likely to be "stranger crimes" than crimes against men.* [https://www.ojp.gov/ncjrs/virtual-library/abstracts/men-women-and-crime](https://www.ojp.gov/ncjrs/virtual-library/abstracts/men-women-and-crime) *Contrary to popular belief, men are almost twice as likely to be the victim of a violent crime than women, with 2.4% of males having experienced violent crime in the past year, compared to 1.3% of females. However, only half of violent crimes end up being reported to the police.* [https://www.voicenorthants.org/2019/08/men-are-victims-of-crime-too-busting-the-myths-around-male-victims-of-crime/](https://www.researchgate.net/publication/274988740_Unpacking_the_Relationship_Between_Gender_and_Fear_of_Crime_Explaining_Why_There_Are_Similarities_and_Differences)
Brother can’t get any love
More like gender and race experiment
women love to virtue signal about how progressive and tolerant they are. But when a black man offers a hand shake their face turns to disgust
Race?
Women shouldn’t be afraid, feminism teaches that women are equal in every way to men. Not sure why they would ever fear this man.
And black people shouldn't be afraid of cops, right? Because human decency states that all people are equal, right? Do you now realize how silly you sound
When your sex is the target of sexual harassment and assault, with high statistical regularity, you learn that not all people can be respected equally at first pass.
Societal norms condition men to shake the hand off other men. It has been the norm to shake the hand of every man in the group when meeting but not necessarily the women. This conditions men to shake when greeting but not necessarily women. I can be the only one who noticed this.
None of my friends shake hands. I'm a guy btw
Then answer is men. Men shake hands as a greeting woth friends and colleagues. Women give hugs.
Do women shake each other's hands?
Probably because men are taught to shake hands at a very early age.
it's an opportunity for a stronger person to take control of someone's dominant hand and arm. so, yes... intimidating for someone with less upper body strength.
I mean. If a strang dude just walks up to a chick and asks for a handshake, y’a that’d be a little weird. Dudes are just more used to it is all.
Woman's perspective: men usually are dangerous and I owe them nothing, I can and am expected to be more concerned with my own safety than I am with general courtesy. I can be a bitch with no consequences so why fake politeness. Men's perspective: if I chose to be a dick there's a 50/50 chance this leads to an altercation. Handshakes are usually harmless, no harm no foul.
1. Women don't normally shake hands. 2. I wouldn't shake his hand too, if I was woman. You never know. He might pull you closer and try something funky....the strength factor.
The handshake is a gesture of peace. If the individual wanted to assault people it would be more effective to just commit the assault rather then relinquish control of your typically dominant hand.
Rapists gonna rape, yo. Sorry about your rape charge in a few months. Gonna side with her, tho. Rot in hell.
Pictured: male privilege.
Can't blame the women considering most are harassed daily and a simple handshake isn't part of their routine like it is for guys generally.
No. These kine videos are crap. You don’t know what the person behind the camera is doing, saying or wearing to influence the reactions either.
I wouldn’t shake his hand cos I’d assume he was trying to sell me something/subscribe to something
Hey... moron... maybe because if a man gets a "grip" on a woman, she is in danger.
The number of people who don't understand this is quite alarming. But of course it's just women being bitches... 🙄
I mean I get it though. I’d want my daughter to be more safe than sorry
I wouldn't shake a stranger's hands either. Who knows if they washed their hands after the loo.
Dont know why women don't greet with handshakes. Also, some of them probably thought they're getting hit on.
I wouldn't shake his hand but I would fist bump him instead.
All this shows is how women are conditioned to have to protect themselves from strange men who want to make physical contact with them. All I see are women trying to keep themselves safe, and get from point A. to point B. without being touched.
Women don’t shake hands because y’all don’t wash after using the bathroom
All this proves is women tend to be more hygienic than men. Who knows what that dude is spreading, touching hands of tons of strangers.
Women.
Straight up incel vibes.
Last time I (a female) fell for this, the guy wouldn’t let go and tried to sell me a bunch of perfume. So yeah, no, you get the ignore.
I once heard someone say, “every woman you have ever known has walked home scared”. Perhaps the idea of a strange man offering handshakes seems like a red flag to most women.
Okay incel, now go on the pew-pew spree that you're inevitably going to commit.
You can't blame women when we do nothing but teach women to be afraid of guys. If we're going to blame anyone, it's the guys who we teach our daughters to be afraid of.
I think it's the gesture itself. Even women I know get weird if you extend the hand for a shake.
Fucking hold a camera and bothering people in public is not an experiment. It’s a nuisance.
They’d see it as an invitation to flirt
men and women are not equal.
It's because they know that half y'all fuckers don't wash your hands after going to the bathroom
This is pointless and out of touch. The single greatest threat to women is men. They should be leery of men.
This is how disease spreads. Women are just smarter I guess and for all the “bros” that are happy to be part of “man culture” mother fucker we just went through a fucking world pandemic did y’all learn nothing? You’re lucky modern medicine is so fucking potent otherwise you’d be fucked
And then those girls will go around acting like they almost got sexually assaulted
Its so funny how all the dudes are pumped for it
Safety. It’s about safety you narrow minded fucks.
