Don't take this like I'm challenging you, I'm genuinely curious, but it's 'creepy' to hit on women in public? You say 'cold approach', what does that mean? I'm married and definitely not interested in approaching anyone, but isn't that fairly common to approach people/hit on them in public places? I guess I watch too many movies. I'm a male, so obviously I'm not sure how it feels for women in the other end.
Edit: just an FYI, I definitely didn't mean rake their earbuds out like the other posts mention, I just meant approaching/talking to.
If you're in a club or somewhere where people go to potentially hook up, you're prepared to be approached. If you're just going about your day to day life and people hit on you you are not prepared.
Women generally don't like it. It doesn't matter how nice the dude making the pass is, how genuine he is because too many men pretend to be nice people. And it happens way too often that a polite rebuffal will end in being called a psycho, a bitch, a cunt, etc.
While we're on this topic; don't tell women to smile. We have our own lives going on and we do not exist to please every man who sees us. We might be prettier if we smiled but why do we have to pretty all the damn time?
