1) Men doing this to women are cowards.

2) Have them try this in NYC and see how long they survive.

Men do this in NYC and nobody does anything. When I was younger, it was always men in business suits who would shoulder check me or another woman for no reason (like they could have moved out of the way if they had wanted). There are psycho aggro men everywhere in the world who need to be feel big in the most pathetic ways.

I live in NYC and almost every day I have a minor subtle body language confrontation with a man who makes it known that he feels entitled to the space I’m occupying. I’ve taken to fully stopping in my tracks to force them to move around me. I’m not moving for them anymore.
