Why is it that on the street, you can say hello to another guy acknowledging him. However, if you say hello?

Question

to a Female.....She thinks your trying to get at her only you could care less your just saying hello..whats up with that? Why so snobby, if all a man is doing is acknowledging your presence in front of him. No big deal, dont want your panties, wont run a game just saying Hello. However, Lesbians have no problem saying hello with an acknowledging nod back. Just an observation. So why is this?

Men

Women

Why is this?

nothing wrong with how I look dude

I am extremely handsome

How do I know Lesbians have no problem.
I live and work in SF, there is a LARGE community of them that I see and work with everyday, and they are nice all the time.

Thats HOW I know

I say hi to be nice every day

thats too bad you think guys dont say hi to be nice

Further more,

when you are good at detail as I am and am required to be in a job you can notice things like body language and how people carry themselves, remember, I said lesbian not Bi, which means they are not confused women.

Observation is how you can tell what from what, and I am a Master of observation.

Thats How I know someones sexual orientation just by passing them

I like the equal response the rest is non sense a this point not that they arent good answers it is just BS women play too many head games with themselves

but now I know, it is snobby ie:

Answer 1

When a man says hello to me on the street, I don't immediately assume he's trying to get into my pants, LOL. Women who DO think this, in my opinion, are just a *little* too sure of themselves and need to tone it down a bit...

Answer 3

It is determined by the day. Some days I smile and say whats up and I am approached with a stupid face without a smile in go back that makes me suppose like somewhat of an fool for doing it within the first location. Other days if the man or woman appears approachable I have honestly stopped and had a talk with two historic women while I used to be running dwelling from college someday. They have been very beautiful. If any person appears like they're in a hurry or indignant then I would not say whats up. Sometimes while I am running and pondering in my possess little international so I do not recognize something.

Answer 4

Um, and you know the women who have no problem with it are lesbians, HOW?

Females get a LOT of unwanted attention that is Very Not Fun. They can't tell, passing you on the street, whether you're one of the loons for whom "hello" means "take me now" so are afraid to encourage you.

Although there's nothing wrong with greeting everyone you pass, there's also no obligation on the part of others to return your greeting.

Often people are in their own worlds -- thinking about where they're going, daydreaming, ....

I myself am inconsistent on this. Sometimes I smile and say "Hi" and others I just keep walking. It doesn't really mean anything -- just my mood.

I still want to know how you know the sexual orientation of total strangers, unless all the women who return your greeting are locked in embrace with other women.

Answer 5

I'm not a lesbian and I say hello back to a man if he speaks to me. It's just to be cordial.

I get mad as hell though, when I speak back to a man and he turns around and tries to keep talking and ask me out. Hard situation to get out of. I guess some women may get tired of that sort of thing so they just don't speak at all. It's not always about being a snob. But I can understand it.

Answer 6

i'd say in this day and age, where so many people act a certain way, but are really not that way, we become wary....

this is added to the fact that many men do take advantage of women in general, whether u know them or not

therefore, we feel the need to exert caution all the time.. it is unfair, but at the same time, i grew up learning "don't talk to strangers", and "those people are weird" (strangers). it would be hard for me to just be so friendly all the time, esp when there are so many men who sit and stare and whistle at women, treating them like slabs of meat.....it's hard to distinguish a nice guy from a pig in disguise :T...

Answer 7

Usually its because you just happen to be lucky enough at that moment to have said hello to some female that is having a shitty day and every guy she runs into wants to get into her pants and do perverted things to her body. Don't let it get you down, very few women feel that way and if they do they need to lighten up abit. Some guys are just genuine nice people

Answer 8

because we have learned that 9 times out of 10, when we are friendly back to a guy, the situation goes downhill from there because they want to continue the conversation and stuff, and thats not what we want.

and it has nothing to do with being snobby or too sure of ourselves, its just that theres never been a guy saying hi just to be nice. ever.

Answer 9

all the women here say "Bonjour" back and if I have met them before I get a kiss or two.

I would be cautious saying hello to a woman somewhere she might feel threatened, in an elevator or an underground carpark. Keeping your distance is better in these situations.

Answer 10

I have never had a problem with anyone, men, women saying hello to me. I just smile back and say hello to them. It is nice to know that there still are polite, happy people out there. There are also alot of standoffish people out there too, and if you say hi to them and they don't respond or look at you funny, don't let that bother you, screw them.
