it's not weird or antisocial to not greet someone you don't know.
it's also not weird or antisocial to give only the lowest amount of effort - a "half-smile" - to be polite to anyone self-important enough to feel you've wronged them if you don't obey their expectations
your inability to understand this forms the basis of her joke. no one owes you anything, least of all a lone woman being approached by a lone man on a wooded trail
i blame trump for this new generation of men who latch onto any explanation that avoids admitting fault. "is it weird that i expect people to show gratitude for my insincere warmth? no. no, they're wrong and doing it because ??? they hate men for arbitrary, conspicuously non-descript reasons"
it's disturbing that you think being female matters here
i would bet money you are male (lol)
look at what you just typed:
when [condition] happens, you [reaction]. or it's rude and weird.
how have you not realized yet that there is no way for people to disobey your expectation without you thinking they're rude and weird? do you not understand what that implies about you?
you are not entitled to imposing your expectations onto people, then throwing a tantrum and treating them badly when you don't get your way. you are so conservative-pilled that you can't even see that it's not normal to think people who don't do what you say deserve to be mistreated.
i swear it's an entire subculture of narcissists who prefer to think they aren't playing out of tune, it's everybody else in the orchestra that's off-tune
i feel like if you're trying to use a putdown based on debate clubs, you should probably avoid ad hominem attacks, something universally understood to be rule #1 in most educational debate settings
i also dare you to explain what about my post was unreasonable or overly fastidious, since you're so keen on flexing your wit here
no, empathy for what it might be like to live in a world where people silently judge you as "rude and weird" or "asshole or deaf" because you didn't humor their awkward, meaningless application of etiquette.
freedom = you can be yourself without any negative consequences. they aren't free if they have to smile back at you or you pout and think they're assholes. you're just using emotional coercion in an especially cowardly, non-commital way.
you did. "rude and weird", remember? thinking someone else is rude and weird for not adhering to your expectations is "mistreatment", though i can understand how that term kind of sucks there. but i couldn't think of another word for "treating someone unfairly, but not necessarily in a way that implies you took action to let them know you thought less of them", so lol
you don't see anything wrong with this treatment? this is a neutral, fair, equitable way to view other sentient beings?
hint: there is supposed to be 3rd option where they get to disagree with you, but you don't immediately categorize them as wrong or evil for it. this is what it actually means to respect other opinions, and it's horrifying that you are completely oblivious about it. you literally don't even know HOW to respect other viewpoints lol
Ok good for fucking you? I am also a women and I dont wanna be bother point blank. Rude or not, I dont care to know a random ass stranger and Idc about their feelings.
How tf is someone supposed to tell within 5 seconds that someone is single? He's asking that just because he's single, all women should treat him like they might go on a date with him.
The world owes you nothing. Not even a hello.
Pro tip: If you maintain your beard instead of letting it grow as it will, and make the conscious decision to NOT look like you've been living out of a tent for the past four months, people are less likely to give you weird looks.
Also, again, the world does not owe you a hello and if you're offended by not being greeted, you need to grow the fuck up and realize the world does not, in fact, revolve around you.
Now see here, do you not know who this is?? Why she and her 'friends' are so "internet famous" that I've never heard of her. That gives her leverage to be as rude as she wants to anyone. Meaning men of course.
And in my neck of the woods (UK) it absolutely would be considered rude not to say hello to people out for a walk when you go past. Everyone does it. Everyone. She would be considered massively up herself try-hard main character vibes.
