    walk up to random people on the street who aren’t wearing headphones to try start conversations?

    It’s strange to me that this would be considered out of bounds. “Pickup artists” aside, this really ought to be more normal.

      Maybe a Generation and location thing, Gen Z here from Western Europe and i definitly would not dare/think about trying to pick up a person outside of a space thats specificly labled for dating.

      For me its kind of a consent thing, outside of specific dating spaces i cant be sure that the other person wants to be botherd with dating.
