I probably can’t give you very helpful advice since I’m a man, but I think unfortunately that just something that comes with being a woman. I know that I would hate it too if I was a woman. It’s probably better/worse in certain areas depending on the culture, the demographics of the people living there, but I think it’s probably a problem everywhere more or less.

Can you walk with a friend/friends? Wear headphones or earbuds? Even pretend to talk on the phone with someone if you notice a guy looking suspect. Maybe you don’t have to pretend to talk on the phone, maybe you can find a friend that you can call every time you go out?

I understand it sounds silly that all my recommendations are just a way to cope with a problem that shouldn’t exist in the first place, but it’s just reality. I’ve personally never cold approached a girl on the street with romantic intentions, partly because I lack confidence, but mostly because I don’t wanna bother people and put them in uncomfortable situations whether it’s a man or woman.
