Personally, I avoid these situations by keeping myself and my family out of bad areas and situations. You could not pay me to ride a New York subway. It may sound cowardly but it keeps us from being victimized or being put in the position of having to confront one of these psychos. These people not only put themselves in the situation but vote for more if it. Particularly women, it's like they have a death wish.
I get it. And I do agree with some of what you say.
I also avoid places that are unsafe as well. I would not knowingly go to places that are bad areas or bad situations. That is not cowardly. That is being wise!
And you are also right that a lot of people voted for this therefore should live with the consequences. Those consequences would be brave mend and women not even being there to help in the first place. However, if good men and women happen to be there, I’m glad they would do the right thing and step up.
I'm not a 'good man' by anyone's standards, but I don't intend to allow intolerable behavior in my presence. Tolerance is the virtue of the man without convictions. (not my quote)
Suggested reading for all here, especially women, families with small kids, and folks who are perceived as being wealthy: "The Gift of Fear" by Gavin de Becker.
Just finished that book. I put off reading it because, as a Christian, I believe God did not give us a spirit of fear. He did, however, give us intuition/gut instinct/whatever you want to label it. The book speaks to that gift.
Exactly, that's why I think the title is a bit off even though I've heard great things about the book (have not read it yet). Trust your instincts, God gave us them for a reason. Don't let modern society guilt you into ignoring them.

Tactical thinking is never cowardly.
