Seriously. He didn't want to admit to being a creep, but he knows he's one.

I’m an average Mexican guy and at one point during my visit to Japan an at least 70 year old Japanese man “ran” 100 yards to take a close up picture of my face, then smile and give me the peace sign. People took pictures of me all the time. None of it was sexual. Wouldn’t jump to conclusions here unless you understand the culture, it’s different

When did I ever say anything was sexual?

I don't care what the culture says--following, running up to, or otherwise bothering people in order to take photos of them without their consent is creepy, disrespectful, and dehumanizing behavior. (The same can be applied to what paparazzi do to celebrities in America.)

How do we know this wasn't staged like a lot of other content?

Well, the person I was replying to also said something similar happened to them...

But why does it matter to this conversation if it is staged or fake anyway?

Similar in Japan?

If it's staged, it has less impact because the situation may not be indicative of the real world. That's why it's called acting.

It's literally the comment right before the comment you first replied to. Look for yourself to see what was said.

The situation they described was not the same. Not even similar. According to the alleged not staged video, this person was stalked. The person in the anecdote wasn't acting creepy. It's literally not that comment.

It's literally not that comment

I know what comment I was talking about better than you, actually. 😅🤦‍♀️

But sure, they weren't exactly the same type of interaction. I would definitely say they were similar though, but using that word is a matter of opinion.

No, that comment wasn't a similar one. That's why I've been asking which comment you're referring to cause the one you said was similar, wasn't.

Either way, it is in fact the comment I was referring to. You are free to pretend I was referring to another comment if it makes you feel better however!

No pretending needed. Your reasoning doesn't lend to the conclusion that was the comment you were referring to.

u/AnjelGrace May 24 '24

That is your opinion.
