    49 replies, posted
[quote] LAKEWOOD, Ohio -- A Lakewood woman called police on Monday afternoon when she found a note on her car that included a neighbor's contact information, according to a police report. The woman lives in a South Lane Drive apartment complex, and the note came from a man who lives in the same complex and included his phone number, the report said. The note’s author wrote that he had lived in the complex for eight months and had just noticed the woman, according the report. The author wrote that the woman was cute, and he didn’t want to wait another eight months to contact her, according to the report. The woman told police that she didn't want them to contact the note’s author because she was afraid that he would become angry or violent, but she wanted the incident documented, the report said. The woman said she would call police if he tried to contact her again. [/quote] Overreaction, much? [url]http://www.cleveland.com/lakewood/index.ssf/2013/10/lakewood_woman_concerned_about.html[/url]
hahaha what the hell [editline]e[/editline] Granted, we don't know what the full note said, but I think there are better ways to say you aren't interested and/or are creeped out than IF YOU CONTACT ME AGAIN I'M CALLING THE FUCKIN COPS DON'T MAKE ME DO IT
"looking for a good time bby ;)"

The media inflates negative events. Raises fear within people, and causes events like these where a (likely) shy person didn't want to come face to face with a woman he thought was cute (Which is kinda common in guys today, none of them have the nerve to talk to a woman anymore) and she automatically assumes that she's going to be raped. I'm not saying she doesn't have the right to be cautious but the media takes these things and throws them out or proportion sometimes and this just seems like one of those cases. The guy doesn't seem to have any ill intentions but she assumes that he does.

I am not living in america, but why do people think that all men are sex crazed psychos and all women are frigid prudes? Is it the media? Is it the whole "The gun is good, the penis is evil" thing? Violence good, Sex bad? Here in germany it is the other way around and people are opening the doors for other regardless of sex and without thinking its creepy way of flirting. Do you think opening a door is metaphorical for ripping off the clothes of someone? USA is a pretty strange place.

I open doors for people all the time, it's called being polite, and as far as I can tell from the lack of abject horror on their faces it doesn't seem to impart the idea that I want to rape them. The media loves to paint more of a caricature of the US than an actual portrait.

I can see why people would be uncomfortable with someone opening the door for them. Like opening a door is such a basic, effortless thing, but then suddenly someone has go and do it for you, thereby obligating you to acknowledge them and their opening of a door, even though stopping to thank them will probably take just as long as if you had to open the door yourself, but you still have to because it's polite. All you wanted to do is get through the door, but now this guy you don't know, without your consent, has forced you into a brief, but unwanted exchanged of social niceties for some sinister reason. So you have to ask: what does this guy want with you? Where does he get off? Just what is he planning?
