Women Of Reddit Share Creepy Things Guys Do
"Why aren't you married?" Really?
Sometimes, the things you believe to be absolutely acceptable to say and do are actually far from acceptable. In fact, they may be in such spooky territory that people feel frightened and uneasy.
Conventional thinking still advises men to approach women by going to bars and striking up a conversation. However, as noted by Dr. William Doherty, PhD, a family therapist, "Many men could benefit from understanding social cues and recognizing when their advances are unwelcome." This sentiment is echoed in various discussions, highlighting the need for men to practice reading the room and figuring out when to back off.
You see, depending on the situation, something that might have been meant as a pleasant remark could actually be construed as something more sinister. We understand that nobody wants to appear unsettling, but sometimes that is the case.
The majority of people who give off the wrong impression seem to have tried flirting with someone before things went tragically wrong. Guys sometimes engage in strange behaviors that they may not even be aware of.
While it's evident that following someone home is weird, you might not recognize that when you approach a woman, you're obstructing her only way out, or that asking her if she lives alone makes her uneasy. According to Dr. Pat Love, a relationship therapist, "Many men are unaware of how their actions can be perceived, leading to discomfort in women." Women are revealing all the strange things that guys do that they are sure these men don't know.

There are numerous risks associated with toxic masculinity for males as well as for those around them, particularly women. The most typical way to express this is through the use of violence or the threat of violence.
The majority of these behaviors are signs of toxic masculinity, in which men adhere to a very specific, predefined set of rules regarding how men are "supposed to" act. This is definitely detrimental to everyone.
