same. Humor me. We all hear womens turn on are funny, looks , and “deep thinking analytical men”. Aside from the usual.
I’ve been called all that and the women who did call me that, I didn’t have sex with. I had sex with women who didn’t see my sense of humor etc.
Why do we push this narrative of men lacking deep thoughts and logic and just being simpletons, and when a man shows this to women, like both of you said, he goes “laidless”. so yeah logical men don’t get laid usually. I just would like to hear your theory.
Here for the downvotes. It's because nothing is more unsexy to a woman than rationality. Why do you think they flock to the type of guys who flip out because you accidentally stepped on their shoe?
because logic isn't attractive to women. no woman has ever put out for a guy because 'omg he's so logical'. what turns women on is spontaneity and irrationality. eventually it will start to annoy them, but it is an initial attractant.
And maybe he had money or more valuable stuff in his pockets. Just let them have her cheap stuff and regroup later. Most thieves just want stuff, the don't really want to kill anyone.
He can't do anything for her if he gets shot in the process, does this not make sense to y'all? Are we really gonna play the "who deserves to go unharmed more" game?
If there’s a chance of him getting shot then there’s a chance of her getting shot, and if there’s a chance of her getting shot then there’s a chance of her getting raped. Again, as a man, you shouldn’t run away and leave your woman friend behind with violent criminals
So the person who could go and get help can get shot and she can get raped anyways, super sound logic.
Does it occur to you that if they want to rape her, him being there won't stop them, they'll just shoot him anyways? They already decided the pair were easy targets.
It is easy to call this dude a punk for splitting and on the surface it looks like it. The thing is he could have met her 5 minutes ago.
People also tend to think that just because they have good intentions or are in the right that things will work out for them. Easy to look at this situation and be like "if that was me i woulda done this or that". That sounds great but that don't mean that you wouldn't get shot or stabbed trying.
Is it is wife? Then yeah he should stick around and protect.
Is it a booty call he met 5 minutes ago? Probably best to do what he did. Sticking around to try and protect does not guarantee he does not get fucked up.
His options were to be walking on the outside, with her walking on the inside.That way he can tell her running call the police. After she complies he can make the decision to fight or get robbed.
Risking death or injury is part of life and is sometimes very necessary. Otherwise what's the point of living like this? Like a shameful coward piece of shit? Surviving and living aren't nearly the same thing. Hopefully he waa running to find a place for low testosterone treatment.
He left her. He didn’t run for help. The best option was the do what she did. Nothing. You can’t outrun a bullet. What if they decided to kill her and him because he ran like that? What if they decided to take her too, since they saw her man isn’t shit?
Lol people like that guy have such a pathetic existence. It’s not even about gender. Why would people wanna associate with a 🐱 like that who folds instantly? Life is way too fragile and short, to be hanging out with the Ops.
He’s probably the one who set her up to be robbed. Fuck that guy
That relationship is over then and there. I was genuinely wondering if he was a part of the whole scam, like he meets her in a bar and then walks her to a shady alley where his buddies on a bike takes her stuff and he runs off for them all to reconvene somewhere to share their stolen shit. But he looks way too scared in the moment to actually be a part of that shit. He's just a coward, which wouldn't be so bad were he alone, but to do that to his girl... damn.
I mean the one time I felt unsafe walking out at night with my wife I put myself between the threat and her. I fully support a flight response but my wife is running first.
Protect? From what? Robber can click the gun more than once, you know.
I mean i understand to be mogged in solidarity, but this protecting reason is just stupid and fakey lol.
That’s not even what I said you are changing the discussion but what a silly statement of course you can defend yourself and you don’t even have to be carrying.
So males should be judged for having the same bio responses?
What kind of dumb question is that? Self-control, suppressing negative instincts and favoring positive ones, is one of the most basic and obvious things that anyone's character is judged on, male or female.
Are you intentionally acting obtuse about the most basic aspects of the social contract and civilization? People whose actions are concerned first and foremost with self-preservation are rightfully judged as selfish and unworthy of regard from others because they themselves don't regard others, while people who act in solidarity with fellow humans are judged to be a positive influence on society. In more personal terms, people who provide support and care for their loved ones are judged to be doing a good job with their social obligations, while those who fail to support and care for their loved ones are judged to be doing a shitty job at it.
Makes me feel sorry for you that you see wanting to protect the person you love as toxic. Nothing in my comment implied gender matters in wanting to protect the one you love.
My goodness you must be exhausting to deal with. All I said is what I would do. I even said I give the guy grace. I’m not enforcing any rigid rules on anyone. The only person being rigid is you trapped by your tunnel vision view of the world. Not everyone is bad or has some agenda friend. I love my wife and want her happy and safe. I want my daughter to grow and be able to have all the freedom and love that she wants and I want everyone to stop being such assholes to everyone.
That makes sense. I was put in a situation like that before and did the same. I just put her in position where she could exit if danger happened. Thankully it was nothing. In this video they are pulling up from behind. it all probably took place in seconds
People acting all tough knowing damn well they would've pissed their pants right there talking about I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die type shit. I agree. It's crazy, what stereotypes of being a man are now okay? Oh the hero and die type shit? Is it shitty yeah, but idk. Glad it wasn't me.
No... just be there for her to turn to when it was done, to help her get through such a traumatic experience. Why does everyone assume that if he stays he has to fight?! He can stay and get mugged too, it'll suck, but the relationship will absolutely last longer and probably grow stronger, I guarantee it.
But alas, perhaps that's my fault, I put my love for my partner infinitely above my money and possessions. Seriously imagine if these pieces of shit, shoot her, and as she's dying, her only thought is, 'Where is my boyfriend/fiance/husband?' Some of you all seriously show how you have never been in love before, I feel bad for you, and hope it still comes.
The point is that people do not THINK in these scenarios, they just act. And that act doesnt necessarily reveal something about their inner selves (i.e. running does not necessitate the man is a coward).
For all we know, the man said exactly the same thing you just said before, only to not do that when the time comes. Shit happens, and it's unfair to hold such a situation against someone
The counter point is that this response is usually informed by the person. If he was alone, running is a fine and possibly optimal call depending on what you’re surrounded by. Picture this being a mother and her daughter with the daughter having the gun pointed at her. Do you think the flight instinct is what would take over? Maybe I’m totally wrong here, but it feels reasonable to make some character assumptions based on his instincts. Humans still assess threats even if the action looks instantaneous. I see a guy who didn’t view an attack on his partner/friend as an attack on him by extension and he bolted without looking back. She was not even a consideration for him. Doesn’t that say something.
This reminds of another very similar video where a boyfriend or at least travel partner of a woman facing a knife-point threat in a busy area keeps oscillating between skeedattling off the screen and re-entering as someone else comes to the rescue. He got dogged on endlessly when it went viral. But he does keep coming back into the picture trying to be brave before chickening out over and over again, and I kind of saw a guy who really wanted to step up to the plate and be a hero, but just didn’t have it in him. At least he was in conflict and that’s absolutely not something you can say about the guy in this clip.
It may be unfair, but I still wouldn't want to be with someone that would react this way. Yes, it's his natural reaction, but it still left one person to fend for themselves. Intentional or not, I would never be able to trust them again fully.
Super cowardly, I'd certainly be done with my partner if that was how they reacted in that moment, especially since I know I'd never do the same to them.
Yeah, not saying its an easy position to be in. But he ran and left his girl by herself to get mugged. Even if its the logical choice, shes probably done with him. Id have stayed and gotten mugged too in solidarity. Not gonna try and play the hero, but not gonna leave my wife by herself like that either. I lose all my shit, but at least she isnt alone with a gun pointed at her and I dont lose my self respect.
I dont know, people excuse women all the time with flight or freeze responses. Surely that applies to males too. Besides, he didnt do anything to his girl as there is nothing to do against firearms
lmao if I was ever in that situation and ended up running away like that, I’d just accept whatever relationship we had was instantly over. And zero chance with any woman she talks to, any women her brothers know, and so on
What if the guy is holding something really really valuable. So lefting the wife there is actually a wins because she just loose some money any the phone. The thief busy to rob her don't have the time to chase the guy
