Actually, asking someone out from a workplace and school is considered sexual harassment. Read the Everyday sexism blog, full of women talking about
men they've know for a while asking them out. Simply asking someone out is now sexual harassment. Clubs and bars are also notorious places where women do not want to be accosted because that counts as sexual harassment as well, so you'
re left with dating websites (which have a spectacularly low rate of success) and
family/friends. Family and friends don't
work so well if you come from a small family or if your friends are mostly of the same
gender (I'm talking about hetero relationships). So, how do you make more female friends? Go out and talk to more women, but that is "super creepy and threatening". Did he say he wanted
rape them or give any indication as to that, or did he threaten them in anyway? So why is the automatic assumption a fear of this person when the
men in your personal life are more likely to murder you,
rape you and steal from you?
--There is no other way to describe this fear other than irrational. Sexual harassment is Sexual Harassment only when it is a man doing it to a
woman when a
woman does it, it is often considered to be "cute" or being "affectionate".
