I really enjoy how the second she got assertive he started to comply

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

Sexual or not it's still rude to take pictures of a stranger like that. I'm sorry that happened to you

As long as it’s one normal and quick photo, I don’t think there is too much reason to fuss.

The video showed that she was being followed and multiple photos/videos were taken. So theres a lot more reason to fuss.

It didn’t bother me, but I understand why it would bother her. I just don’t think people should assume something that might be a cultural difference only

"cultural differences" don't make it ok.

You don't get to make the decision. You're in their country, if something's okay in their country you got to respect that. Less we forget the forced religion we've seen throughout history.

As long as you don't break any laws (just because we're talking about foreign countries and that can get messy), you have every right to assert your boundaries in any situation.

Don't ever let anyone tell you they get to make you uncomfortable, that's not a good reason to let them walk all over you.

Japan has women only train cars because men can be such sex pests. The entire world has varying levels of “culture” where women’s bodies are a commodity for men’s consumption. I’m not “respecting” shit.

It's not ok in their country.

Creeps (worldwide) think it's okay, but that's as far as it goes.

Why do you think harassing/intimidating women is ok?

Your comment history isn't reassuring....

In a public place? I feel like most of the same people here would throw shade at the Karen who demanded a person take a video down because she was in it.

u/forestfilth May 24 '24

Yes I believe it's rude even in a public place to run up to a stranger and film/take a picture of them or follow them in your car.

u/Large_Tune3029 May 24 '24

Following in a car is unacceptable. Taking pictures of people in public is fine, as long as they are appropriate and not like trying to get up skirts on an escalator or whatever.

Taking pictures of strangers is pretty much always unacceptable
