万花筒 2009-02-21 如何对付搭讪男

You are sitting in a bar minding your own business when you see an attractive young woman and then this guy shows up.

 

" (Is) anybody sitting here?" "No." "Want a drink?" "I am good. Thank you."

 

People at the bar can't help but notice the guy 's lame¹ come-ons and the girl doing her best to avoid a conversation.

 

"You are beautiful." "Thank you." "Cheers to you."

 

But he is relentless².

 

"Excuse me, I know this is a little forward, but can I get your phone number?" "I don't even know you. No, I am sorry." "Come on." " I don't even know you, sir." " Well, I don't know this is gonna work." "No." " You now give me your phone number because I really want your phone number." "I will not give you my phone number." "Come on, give me your phone number." "No." "Please." "Please stop touching³ me!" "I'm asking nicely. Come on."

 

So what will you do? Step in to help her when a guy like this is invading her personal space. Our hidden cameras are rolling at this bar at the New Jersey⁴ shore to find out.

 

"Come on, I swear you look just like..." "No, stop" "What am I doing?" "I don't know you, please sir." “I haven't done anything." "Don't touch me." "What do you mean don't touch you? I saw you looking at me."

 

Verbal passes are now getting physical. Suddenly this woman swings into action.

 

"Would you like to join us?" "That would..." "OK. We're going right outside." "Yeah, we all go." "No, you are not invited. Sir, you are not invited.” "No. Sit where you are." "Leave her alone." "Sorry." "Now." "Sorry."

 

What if the witnesses are women?

"Come on." "Stop ,I don't know you. Please, get out of my space." "I am Cheramie. I am trying to meet you." “She’s gonna come down over here that..."

As a group they react just like the guys inviting⁵ the harassed⁶ woman into their protective folds.

 "Just relax and watch the game, that's all." "Hey，listen. Can I just get your phone number?" "I don't know you." "Oh my god." "I know, but maybe we can go out...I just think you are beautiful... I just want to go out and date you or something, like coffee even." "No, thank you. Thanks for the compliment, but..." "Come on." "She is not interested. Can you leave us alone please?" "What's your name?" "Please leave us alone." "We are not interested in making friends right now." "I am just trying to be friendly..." “I understand but right now we are just no interested. We wanna have a drink, we are talking. Could you just go away for a little while? Thank you."

 

"He wouldn't let up and we were starting to get a little, you know, worried for her." "Oh, my god."
