Panorama : "the game" men harassing women

28 replies

onetimeonlyy · 07/10/2019 20:43

Is anyone watching panorama now - secrets of the seduction boot camp?

About the increase in street harasment and so called "game"

It's absolutely disgusting

They were just taught "it doesn't matter if she is underage"

I’m shocked beyond belief - & so angry!!

onetimeonlyy · 07/10/2019 20:48

It's so scary. And it makes me so angry that many of the women try to "let them down gently" they are trying to ensure they don't get angry or aggressive. This is what girls are learning. It's so awful

It hideous, what the fuck is wrong with these men?
Picking on younger women who aren't strong enough to walk away or to tell them where to go.
They are nothing more than sexual predators

CoolCarrie · 07/10/2019 20:49

I am watching , it’s truly shocking, and I would be mortified if my DS behaved like that to any girl. I am bloody angry too. Glad that this is being exposed, good on the reporter

dirtyrottenscoundrel · 07/10/2019 20:50

They are basically teaching other men how to rape.

Cocolapew · 07/10/2019 20:50

"some men are too caught up with consent" Angry

meow1989 · 07/10/2019 20:50

It's so hideous I dint even know how to put how I feel into words.

CoolCarrie · 07/10/2019 20:51

Just when you think it can’t get any worse, it bloody does, no means no, not maybe, what a bunch of bastards

gamerchick · 07/10/2019 20:52

It's gone on for years and years. Say PUA 3 times and you might get a bunch of them here to play with. They're a pain in the arse.

"Sometimes guys are too concerned with consent"

My 17 year old Dd and her friend were approached by that guy in Glasgow last year.

onetimeonlyy · 07/10/2019 20:54

Palmreader

Your poor DD - is she okay? How did she react?

"The point of no return"

OP posts:
CoolCarrie · 07/10/2019 20:54

It’s good to hear the opinions of the men in audience of the viewing.

CoolCarrie · 07/10/2019 20:56

Palmreader, I hope they told him to fuck off, bastards

meow1989 · 07/10/2019 20:56

Last Minute Resistance.

Escalation.

Point of No Return.

Too preoccupied with consent

How do these people exist? What is wrong with them that they see women as commodities? Why do they thing they have the right?

Janaih · 07/10/2019 20:57

Horrific.

CoolCarrie · 07/10/2019 20:58

Well done to the reporter, keep at him, you’ll be in the dock pal, not Miles!

onetimeonlyy · 07/10/2019 20:59

Did he almost say there we teach men how to have the skills to not rape?!

OP posts:
CoolCarrie · 07/10/2019 21:00

God it’s bloody disgusting and depressing,

Fraggling · 07/10/2019 21:01

Not watching as knew would be enraged.

Glad it's on mainstream telly so people can see.

Men have not cared about consent / age forever. Adult men tried to pick me up when I was in school uniform, hardly uncommon, this was in 80s.

Difference is net has linked them up and they encourage each other.

Kind of glad not watching it seeing it.

CoolCarrie · 07/10/2019 21:01

Yes, he did say that one.

MsTSwift · 07/10/2019 21:03

Urgh well done that reporter. Yet another conversation I now have to have with my 13 year old who now goes into town with pals. All politeness and social skills to be binned with these creeps and a firm “leave me alone you pervert stop harassing me” to be said clearly over and over again

onetimeonlyy · 07/10/2019 21:03

Dragging - I know we've all experienced it but it's so shocking watching it still! It would enrage you.

They both walked away but knew it wasnt right at the time. She told us when she got home - it was on the Scottish news a few weeks later and she immediately recognized him. Told her she had a lovely tan, did she like sunbathing. I think she would have been frightened is she was one her own. Really creepy.
It's really disgusting. She's now a year old and watching it tonight. Totally shocked
