the crime is still simply that he hit on a girl, openly, in public.
The societal messaging for at least a generation now has been that this is indeed taboo. It's deeply unhealthy, but the propaganda machine has been pumping that message out for a very long time now and it has done a lot of damage.
The amusing inverse of this is that, in a country like Sweden or Denmark, where this is even more taboo, when you do it, women tend to see you as even more confident than you may actually be, lol.
Like, you stand out to an extreme extent, compared to the locals, who simply don't do it, lol.
Mostly seemed to work in my favour, at least in person. Though small sample size, admittedly. shrug
