I really don't have a problem talking with men who I don't know, when I'm in the bakery or the supermarket or outdoor concert. I do have to be more concerned about my surroundings when I'm out alone, walking somewhere. I'm small, not strong and I have no weapons.


Every woman should carry pepper spray.

"What is pepper spray? What does it do?

A 1-second blast of pepper spray will render an individual incapacitated for 15 minutes to over an hour. Pepper spray is an inflammatory agent it will IMMEDIATELY: induce coughing, choking, nausea, it will dilates the capillaries of the eyes causing temporary blindness, the mucous membranes will swell to the point of cutting off all but life support breathing, causes intense burning and an assailant to be temporarily incapacitated."

Are single woman truly fearful of any interaction with a single man who is a stranger?


Most of the time, overall, yes.
Unless, of course, he is 6 feet tall and looks like a male model.

Is it a reasonable fear?


Discomfort might be a more appropriate word when talking about what is "reasonable".
A reasonable amount of caution is logical in most circumstances.
Based on published crime statistics, however, much of the time, the "fear" exhibited often can go beyond reasonable. Despite what anyone here has personally experienced, and not to diminish it, crime statistics show that a woman (or even a man for that matter) is more likely to get killed, attacked, abused, raped, molested, or kidnapped by someone they know, than by a complete stranger. "Stranger danger" accounts for less than half of all such crimes. So, just because someone is unknown to you, doesn't automatically make them a bad person to fear. All of anyone's friends were strangers at some point.

What can a man do to make them more at ease?

Cater to their every whim. Which in these instances, means
giving them lots of space, and leaving them alone to revel in their aloneness. Which eventually they will then complain about.

How much of that fear is a result of sensationalized news or social media?

A lot of it.

No, I don't.

Nor do I have any of the other "anti"-social website accounts.

Just another bandwagon for the masses to jump on and create problems with.

It is easy for a guy to say boobs


Boobs.

Hey, that WAS easy.

From Seinfeld:

Elaine: (regarding Sidra's-(Teri Hatcher) breasts) "They're not real, you know.
They're just a little too perfect."

Jerry: "Yes, they are."

Elaine: "Oh, I didn't realize you were such a breast man. I would have thought you were a leg man."

Jerry: "A leg man? Why would you think I was a leg man? I don't need legs. I HAVE legs."

My sentiments exactly.

What if Boston never had More Than A Feeling?

What if Madonna hadn't been a Material Girl?

What if Falco had never been Rocked by Amadeus?


*keep this going with artists and songs from the 80's.*


What if Prince had never partied like it was 1999?

Both from "Already Gone" by The Eagles:


"So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key"

"Just remember this, my girl, when you look up in the sky
You can see the stars and still not see the light (that's right)'

I think Blind Fury was the first movie I ever saw him in (before I saw Blade Runner)

He also played a very convincing psycho in The Hitcher.

Anyone else ever heard of or watched an American series that came out called...
Midnight Caller. I was hooked on it and can't find it online anywhere, never seen it repeated here in the UK either.


I remember watching that.

local women "make it seem like they are too afraid to get to know me" while out of State women tend to be a lot braver than that.



That's because the out of state women think there is little or no chance of you ever actually meeting, so they can afford to APPEAR braver.
