    Never approach a woman under any circumstances lest you run the risk of unintentionally making her fear for her life, gotcha. Just ignore women unless they approach you first. They’re scared of you because you’re a member of the dangerous sex, and that’s just all there is to it.

      None of this is saying don’t hit on women.

      It’s saying that some men are complete assholes when they’re rejected, and so it’s not a simple and straightforward thing to reject men.

      Don’t invalidate the experiences of women who have had reason to have trouble. Don’t say stupid shit like “just say no, why do women gotta do things like ghost people,” etc.

      And if you do hit on women, don’t give them a hard time for rejecting you! They’re allowed to say no, for any reason, and they aren’t required to justify themselves to you.

      But absolutely continue to pursue women - respectfully.

      For anyone agreeing, this is the exact mindset that will prevent you from escaping incel land. There’s subtlety and growth and understanding to be had if you ask questions and discuss in good faith. Making glib comments and knocking down straw men is not the path to happiness and self improvement.
