Guys most of them like having female friends. It can be just friends it can be as you said, with bad intentions. If you see, most of the guys with bad motives are people who are deprived of any normal interaction with females. May be because of their own complexes or may be because of the society. So by compartmentalizing males from females is probably a very dangerous thing to do. I think males aborad too discuss amoung themselves about females and ogle at females. But still the crime rates against the females are probably less. Males in general and Males in India has to grow to respect females. I am sorry that we are no where near this and I do apologise to all females being a male myself. But I would also request you to be realistic about this.മരകയലുകൾhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15764593837461537508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-34208558389791685082008-04-19T09:28:00.000+05:302008-04-19T09:28:00.000+05:30rishi- i agree with you. it is a grey area. what h...rishi- i agree with you. it is a grey area. what happens if someone is attracted to the stranger who is 'asking you out' versus not attracted is also something worth exploring in what can be considered street sexual harassment.<BR/><BR/>in my list of experiences- until 2004- i had not been asked out for a coffee by any stranger- it was simply unacceptable?! more so if its some random person on the street versus being in a public space such as a coffee shop or a bar- the boundaries of behaviour shift a bit in different public spaces.<BR/><BR/>its not a 'guys vs gals' thing. blank noise is not NOT anti men. blank noise is also about understanding the relationship between male and female strangers.<BR/><BR/>i remember being in florence- italy perhaps in 2002...and a man asked me if he could walk around town with me. i said no.<BR/><BR/>i wasnt sure if that was street sexual harassment or just the 'done' thing there. my reactions are also based on what 'appears' acceptable and what doesnt - which again stems from each geographical location's cultural codes. <BR/><BR/>maybe this person's intention was not to harass me- but then again its him thinking he can- its about taking liberties?Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13512982989981340707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-5032402760366092112008-04-19T06:31:00.000+05:302008-04-19T06:31:00.000+05:30having gone through all the comments on this post,...having gone through all the comments on this post, i see a marked streak in guys to try and defend the implied motives of the guy in the pic (which i do agree to, to an extent) and a marked streak of aggression and hostility towards the guy among the ladies... <BR/><BR/>believe me, with cases like this, Blank Noise is hurting its own cause by preventing itself from becoming a movement with a larger base... this guy might have been right, or he might have been wrong but the bottom line is that he was in that hue of gray where his intentions were not established to be mala fide.. this automatically creates an impression (however wrong) that this is again a guys vs gals thing, and is too gender defined to participate in...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-33410944328888374522008-04-10T16:10:00.000+05:302008-04-10T16:10:00.000+05:30Vishwas here.The Meghana lady is speaking too much...Vishwas here.<BR/>The Meghana lady is speaking too much.<BR/>She sys - In “our” patriarchal society, guys should not approach an unknown girl, guys should not ask unknown girls out, yes, even for COFFEE!! <BR/>Now, is this really a patriarchal society? On th e surface, it look like that, but you go deep n d then U get the truth.<BR/>Most husbands are hen-pecked. Wives are the authority and almost everything happens according to the will of the lady. And who gives the children the basic guidelines, love etc.. Hey- The Mother. So the society is Matriarchal. <BR/>So, if a guy approaches an unkwon girl for coffee, he is doing nothing wrong.<BR/>For that matter, even if he asks<BR/>‘Can I kiss U/ HUG/ TOUCH BREAST/F$%K?’<BR/>even then , is not offensive, but totally naturally.<BR/>If U feel offeneded, that is ur bloody problem. Tht shows how weak-minded u r. It shows ur narrow-mindednes.<BR/><BR/>Megahana : ‘’’ for that matter why should each and every woman in our country be harassed a nearly 50 times a year??’’<BR/>So this woman has counted the no. how many times she has been harassed. 50 times! Meghana, have U added one zero by mistake? Most probably, the no. only five. <BR/><BR/>‘’’ No reason right… the same way, there is no reason for why the men lose their “asking-will-you-have-coffee-with-me-rights”…’’’<BR/><BR/>Who the hell r u to deprive me of my rights? My rights r my rights. U have no authority over my rights. And I m least interetsd to drink coffee wit u, U or any other girl- Because U ladies are nothing but a large pack of stupid creatures and this stupidity U call ‘Womanhood’.<BR/> And remember, it is because U r refusing men their rights, they are resorting to eve-teasing. They get rejected/ deprived and become angry/ frustrated then they become perverts. And U ladies r the cause for this. <BR/>Yes, U women R responsible for the growth of eve-teasers. You Got only yourselves to blame ! Do not blame the men! Blam Yourselves!<BR/>Wen U refuse to drink coffee with the guy. Then one dy he will start pincing the buttocks. <BR/><BR/>And Meghana also says – “”innocent, men from respectable families don’t go to random girls on the road and say ‘Will you have coffee with me?’ <BR/>I am from Bangalore, and if I ask 30 of my Bangalorean male friends if they would ever say such a thing to an unknown girl on the road…. I bet my life that all thirty will say, “even if she’s the most attractive girl, I would still never do such a thing!!”<BR/><BR/>Now, look here, Those men might be lying their heads off. And Meghana got 30 male friends? In this conservative country? I nthis country where an uncle pinches ur butt, waiter brushes against u, Policeman looks at ur blouse, well, well, Meghana got 30 male friends in this country?<BR/>Meghana, is it 30 or 3? U might have added a 0.<BR/>Anyway, these your friends might not be telling the truth. If hey told the truth, then u wud have labeled them ‘Eve-Teasers’ and clicked their photographs and posted them on these blog.<BR/>Then instead of 8 unwanted teasers, we wud have had ‘ 38 unwanted eve-teasers’.<BR/><BR/>That man on the above post is definitely innocent. If u got any sense, pllz remove him frm the bog. If he comes to know it (Most probably he might, since he is working in a call centre), he might sue U and send U to Jail.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-41882321039913347212008-04-08T18:39:00.000+05:302008-04-08T18:39:00.000+05:30I am Santhosh., Male.Come on Folks! Have some comm...I am Santhosh., Male.<BR/>Come on Folks! Have some common sense!<BR/>Look at the photo of the creep! Does he look innocent or shy? He looks cunning and sly- like a fox. <BR/>If this man works in a call centre, hasn’t he got girlfriends there? Aren’t there girls working in the call centre? Can’t he go for coffe with one of them?<BR/>And he says he is a science graduate. Most probably, he has studied only II P.U.C.<BR/>He has called the lady for a cup of coffee, but any smart individual can be sure that he is thinking of nothing but sex.<BR/><BR/>Prakash has written : “well, how do men approach women then?”<BR/>First of all, remember that you are living in a nation which has exploited women for centuries. But, of course, the desire of man to approach a woman is also natural. But you cannot expect women to talk freely with men in this disgusting, bullshitty society.<BR/>Prakash, approach a woman silently. Do not make any conversation.<BR/>For example, you have climbed a bus and on one seat, is seated a pretty lady. She is the only one on the seat.<BR/>Now, you go and sit near her. But do not touch her. Do not talk to her. Do not even look at her. Be silent. SILENCE.<BR/>Close your eyes. Meditate. Now you are in the spiritual realm. Now your male energy goes and meets the female energy of that lady and speaks to her. But this speech is without words. This speech is expressed in feelings. You are having the divine romance.<BR/>Physically, you have not lifted a finger. But on the spiritual level, you have romanced.<BR/>Another advice I can give is: <BR/>You guys, why do you want to approach the woman? Let the woman approach you.<BR/>Become spiritual, folks, become spiritual.<BR/>Then the woman will get attracted by you and she will approach.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Anonymous has written : “i would like to know how the "machlee" would react if it was shah rukh khan who said those lines. or if the guy in the pic looked like hritik/brad.”<BR/><BR/>Well, there are two options.<BR/>If Sharukh Khan had called Jasmeen for coffee, there is a chance that she might have gone. But Shah Rukh is a Gentleman. He can be trusted.<BR/>When Shah rukh calls the girl for coffee, he means ‘Only coffee’ and no sex. That is proof of his decency. That is because he is sexually satisfied. Not only the physical sex, but even his mental and emotional needs as far as the female gender is concerned, he is fully satisfied. Because he is working in film industry and he has got numerous female friends.<BR/><BR/>The second optin is that if Shah Rukh or Hrithik had called Jasmeen for coffee, there is every chance that she might have refused. Hasn’t the girl the freedom to refuse? Do not imagine that Shah Rukh requests a girl to come with him, the girl will go running after him. Women got some dignity in life, but that is difficult for people like you to understand.<BR/>Whatever it is, the final decision should rest with the lady.<BR/><BR/>The sad thing is that almost every guy on this blog is in support of the fox on the poster.<BR/>But let us analyse the sly man. Instead of introducing himself, the fox speaks nonsense :<BR/>‘I work in a call centre. I graduate in Science.’<BR/>Now hy does he tell all this? What is the girl supposed to do after listening to it? Dance in front of him? <BR/>Then Jasmeen asks : “Why are you telling me all this?”<BR/>This question he does not answer, because he is a fox.<BR/>Instaed he asks her to come with him for coffee? Can’t this fellow drink his stinking coffee alone?<BR/>Of course, Not a serious matter. Not an eve-teaser, but might be something worse. He might be a criminal.<BR/>If a lady stares at you or smiles at you and then you go and speak to her and ask her out for coffee or pizza, that is justified.<BR/>But in this case, Jasmeen has not stared or smiled at this sly creature.<BR/>It is high foolishness to expect a girl to be friendly with or trust a stranger in this country, because this country consists of people out of whih 90% are bullshits.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-19480903337960421422008-03-15T22:19:00.000+05:302008-03-15T22:19:00.000+05:30"Eve teasing" is a very serious problem in India, ..."Eve teasing" is a very serious problem in India, but the reverse is also seen.<BR/><BR/>In Ragging, which commonly involves gross violations of human rights, both the pictures are seen, i.e. boys abusing girls, and girls abusing junior boys.<BR/><BR/>I know some readers may laugh at, but in changed Indian society many "westernized" girls criminally abuse junior boys, as the senior girls get support from their batchmates.<BR/><BR/>Serious abuses in Ragging has led to 31 reported deaths between 2000-2007 (7 in 2007 alone). <BR/>Society Against Violence in Education (SAVE) - www.no2ragging.org is possibly the first registered Indian NGO devoted to address this issue.The Healing Touchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17373461623087844192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-1587162778289594022008-02-10T12:24:00.000+05:302008-02-10T12:24:00.000+05:30The guy just had the guts to ask.

She could have just said no." (to be fair, the poster doesn't actually say "no, thanks." or "please leave me alone" in the convesation given).<BR/><BR/>Women seem to be sure that the guy was coming on to the poster. <BR/><BR/>I for one think that the guy was probably coming on to the poster. Having said that, I think it would have been a whole lot clearer if the poster had clearly indicated that the guy continued to press her even after she said "no".

Get them on. This guy, from what you have written, has been nice. He surely may not know you but it doesn't mean he is negatively looking at you.<BR/><BR/>mind you most like this are not stalking.. they might be trying to get close to you.. thatz it. He might like you pure.

The day women stop feeling ‘threatened’ by any stranger, that day these rights of men will be restored!! don’t blame the girls, guys….blame the eve teasers!! And more over, to sprinkle a little bit of ‘awareness’ on few of the ‘broadminded people’ here… in no country, whether America or Kazakhstan, can you see men randomly picking up unknown women off the streets for “dating”… probably u guys have seen prostitution and have mistaken it for dating!! So to the girl who said “if the same conversation had happened on F.r.i.e.n.d.s you and stalker no 1 would have slept together by now”, I would like to ask: If you ever land up on the streets of New York and an unknown guy on the road randomly ’tries his luck on you’ and asks you out, will you end up sleeping with him?? If so, I would like to warn you, that guy must be feeling lucky that he didn’t even have to pay you…<BR/>LOOK IM NOT MAKING FUN OF HER!! IM THE LAST PERSON TO DEMEAN ANOTHER GIRL, THAT TOO PUBLICLY! IM SERIOUSLY TRYING TO GIVE HER SOME AWARENESS AND WARN HER… Im just trying to be helpful to her… its upto her to take this advice or not *shrugs*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10387075.post-54052653590636041472007-07-12T23:30:00.000+05:302007-07-12T23:30:00.000+05:30Wait a minute….. All this debate is on ‘whether th...Wait a minute….. All this debate is on ‘whether this guy was offensive or not’??? Come on guys, in a country where an uncle standing next to you in the bus stand pinches ur butt; the waiter who is supposed to serve you ‘brushes across’ you; the gentleman asking for directions has “Will you come for Rs. 1000” written on the paper having the address for which he is asking for directions; the lecturer in your college calls you to his staff room for a ‘meeting’; a classmate whom you probably consider as a friend would try to kiss you for the sake of winning a bet; a cop constantly look as ur blouse while u r trying to explain to him about a complaint….. U think living in such a country, u should expect a girl not to get offended when a ‘stranger’ walking on the road comes up with some cheesy lines for the heck of it, just for some cheap thrills??? In THIS patriarchal society where we girls cant trust uncles, ‘gentlemen’, teachers, friends and even cops… we being offended by a stalker is considered ‘narrow minded’…. theres no question of whether he is ‘polite’ or not… theres is no question of whether she said ‘leave me alone or not’… he freakin bothered her unnecessarily while she was upto herself on the road!!

And in case anyone has wisecracks about why go to pornosites if you don't want to see all this, these sites like viruses attach themselves to harmless sites one regularly visits and short of reformatting there is no way one can get rid of them. I was conducting a search for school stories of which I happen to be a fan and suddenly a site whose id sounded totally opens up - it consisted of school stories all right- only the main activities in the schools were S&M Pornography.<BR/>And going back to the original photographed male"Victim" in this thread if anyone can't hear the eagerness in his reply- he's perfectly sure that after a photo she'll be only too keen to sleepwith him - they really need to study reading with the ears as well as the printed page with the eyes.Sindhuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13502538040577783561noreply@blogger.com
