A female news anchor wonders why hordes of men didn't rush to defend a woman from harassment on the New York subway.
On May 28, Sky News Australia posted a video titled "New York bearing signs of 'societal decay.'" The video shows a man (who seems as if he is on drugs) entering a train car and sitting next to a young woman. He then touches her without consent, grabs her, drags her around a bit, and generally is an extremely unpleasant nuisance. He eventually leaves her alone and proceeds to try to kick out one of the windows.
During the video, the young woman is seen looking at other passengers, with obvious worry in her eyes, begging somebody to please "help me." Nobody tries to help her. The news anchor, Rita Panahi, asks the question, "Where are the men?"
If I had to guess, they were standing in their place, checking their male privilege, toning down their toxic masculinity, and coping with how their Time's Up. Perhaps the men wanted a demonstration of how women are actually the stronger sex. Perhaps the threat level just did not seem that high to them; New York has a duty to retreat, after all. Besides, New York has been in the habit of arresting those who defend themselves.
Most likely, the men who were on the train did not care about this woman. They did not know her and were not likely to ever get to know her. How could it be worth it for these men to possibly be killed or maimed (it is unknown if the aggressor had a knife) for the sake of someone who may as well not exist to them?

In New York people probably worry that anyone stopping the attacker would be in more trouble than the attacker.
New york is an open cesspool and only idiots willingly live there.
Not my people, not my problem. I’m not the unpaid bodyguard for people I don’t know or care about.
You need a biologist to figure that out.

Then why did Deep State feel the need to shove RCV down NYC voters’ throats, hmmmm?
The perpetrator deserves blame but also the government officials who deprive citizens of their inalienable right to keep and bear arms in New York City.
A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

See my reply #6.
Bingo.
I would like to see self-defense laws beefed up and expanded. I think Good Guys should feel free to take out Bad Guys. But that is definitely not the case, and any attempt to be a "Good Guy" is really asking for huge trouble.
If there is no definition of woman then there is no definition of man. It’s inconsistent for a liberal to talk about men when there is no definition of man.
But please, go be Captain Save-A-Ho.
I am sure that spending years demeaning and feminizing men has had nothing to do with why....../s
Besides, she’s a New York woman. She probably votes Democrat. Why should we prevent her from getting what she voted for?
Mace them?
Liberal women got the men they wanted.
Deep State will be delighted to read some of these replies.
It gins up yet another game of lets-you-and-him-fight, and there are people on this forum who are delighted to oblige.
Better yet, where are all those mondo-woke female super heroes? Or the Williams sisters?
Don't preach about "toxic masculinity" then cry foul when left to your own devices.
Pick a side, toots.. d;^)
You need to have that quote printed on a super size banner and flown all over America.
With our current government, you would probably be shot down or charged with spreading disinformation upon landing.
Where were the hot women you see on TV out performing all the men? Oh, maybe they don’t really exist. Men need respect. I believe more than love. We ain’t getting much of it. Especially from the media. Beat us down over and over and what do you get. Something missing in society. Paul McCartney was wrong, love isn’t all you need.
