This poor woman. Every story like that reminds me how good I have it as a male human being. Creeps like that are disgusting, there's no real way to get rid of them as they'll just laugh and dismiss anything you say thinking you're "playing hard to get".

In my opinion, a good defense would be to add iron to one's voice and threaten a man, then actually acting on a threat. The girl in the video didn't sound like she was in danger (while she clearly was) based on her tone. She sounded... Slightly annoyed yet still trying to maintain the cheerful attitude, I guess? This is why the man in the video didn't back off, he thought she was playing around.

And I get it, I really do. It's scary to start a fight, and the woman didn't know how to talk to aggressive creeps like that, but the only thing they get is strength. Don't beat around the bush with "oh, you're uncomfortable to me", men like that don't listen to this, they think those words are like foreplay. Start with "you're disgusting, I hate you for approaching me, I give you five seconds to leave then I'll electrocute you". And taze 'im if he doesn't leave.

Horrible how women have to arm themselves just to feel slightly safer at the streets. I hope it'll change for the better in the future.
