Yes, absolutely. This is obstructive whoever does it. A friendly smile and 'good morning.' will do. See if she stops to chat.

Ah! Well I don't disagree with you there. Nothing wrong with a hello. I was imagining something more presumptuous.

I tend to think most people are nice. I imagine friendly rather than predatory approaches tho both motivated by attraction.

I'm worried by tendency to see men as threatening by default when wanting to start conversation w pretty woman most natural thing in world.

Living in a state of fear is not good for anyone.

No. If a man approaches and is intrusive, pestering, boorish, it's bad. If he's friendly, polite, considerate, it's good. Behaviour not men

Yes it's the approach more than the location.

Hmm. Yes. But different motivations again. A sense of threat again.

Also approaching a woman on her own on the street at night is a bad idea.
