  • Woman Gets Harassed on the Train; Called Ugly


    The first thing I have to note is that the guy who claims that no one is harassing her, is doing just that. Is he being ironic? I don't think he's smart enough for such irony. He also can't properly recall the time of day. 3 AM? Buddy, you're more than an hour off.

    Here's what I believe happened which led to the exorcist-like outburst:

    At the start of the video, the man on the left with the glasses appears to be having a slight argument with the woman in the hat. It would seem that this argument is about how she's often being harassed by men due to her good looks or her style. It's possible that the man in the glasses hit on her (or another woman) prior to when the video started rolling, which sparked the argument. The cornball in the fitted hat decides to mediate this argument because he himself can't mind his own business, and then becomes a brain-dead demonic hood rat, complete with ridiculous hand gesturing.

    He catches a stroke of (dim) wit, and likens the woman's appearance to that of Willy Wonka, which he seems to be very proud of due to his constant need to make it clear. Willy Wonka isn't very attractive (or female), so the conclusion that it was indeed an insult can be drawn.

    It's surprising to me that the woman remained very calm in this particular situation. Actually, it's really interesting because he looked as if he was going to get physical at some points in the video. Not only that, but she did it with a slight smile on her face. Was this a defense mechanism, or do you think she was feeling guilty about something? Maybe she got the hint that she was being overly conceited in her remarks? Without a full video of the argument, it's hard to say with certainty.

    All of that aside, it was definitely nowhere near being the "okay" in "vocation", as the man clearly has a career opportunity waiting for him in the field of driving vehicles obnoxiously. In other words, he should become an NYC cab driver. Nothing about the man's actions could be justified. You just don't do or say things like this to other people, especially not in public. Perhaps I'm taking the moral route here, but this was as ridiculous as his ridiculing.

    This video brings about an interesting question, however. How do you feel in regards to women who boast about their looks, and think that everyone's trying to get in their pants? Have you seen this happen often? Although this is merely one of many examples, I understand that an abusive partner can act in a similar way. Have you ever been talked to in this manner?

    One can conclude that the man is in dire need of an exorcist, but most of all, it drives home the fact that the New York City subway system is home to undesirables and mole people.

    yes, I've also been told that I'm too ugly to rape, which I took as a compliment.  I'm naturally cute when inshape, but people hit on me when I'm wearing garbage.  Most girls who boast about their looks are delusional.  No one is truly that pretty.  It's more or less about status.

  • SisterMae@xanga

    This is just totally mean spirited and in my own mean spirited red neck girl way I hope he does this to the wrong person and gets his butt kicked

  • itsonlydreams@xanga

    i'm actually pretty insecure about my looks; but guys hit on me a lot--then i find myself, if i talk about this, or about the guys hitting on me..realizing how cocky i sound, unintentionally. like, the knowledge that you could have (almost lol) any guy you want is a startling realization, and it sounds awful to say and really insanely conceited. but if it's true it's not necessarily wrong to admit that . Just don't be all about the power; don't brag. I have a friend who's sexy as hell, guys go crazy over her. And she is just like, yeah, I am beautiful. But it's matter of fact, not vanity.


  • Nevermore_Nightmare@xanga

    ...wow. Haha maybe that guy just got rejected and decided to take it out on her. But yeah that was definitely uncalled for, especially in a public place like that. I would have gotten up and punched that guy. And yeah, my friends have used/boasted about their looks several times. If they don't get what they want, they get really surprised and all "whatever, he's an asshole anyway" I reid to explain to my friend that not everyone is going to want to have sex with her...*sigh*

  • prettynpink628@xanga

    I remember stuff like this. It was called grade school, and then we grew up and quit being shits to each other. He's only embarrassing himself. And I think that's why she's smiling. 


    I don't care about women who think everyone's trying to get into their pants. I worry about myself. 
  • aznsam999@xanga

    his girlfriend probably broke up with him because he was too ugly

  • Keeping__Karma@xanga

    And this, kids, is why incest is generally frowned upon.

  • WannaBeFit73@xanga

    Ghetto people are so ridiculous.

  • TheLizarellaProject@xanga

    lol wtf man, people.


    I don't get hit on, so I don't generally brag about getting hit on.  I have a friend who is pretty, used to be super thin but she's gained a mess of weight, still thinner than me though and she seems to delight in reminding me every time we hang out how sooooo many dudes are into her, she can't go anywhere without people trying to get in her pants, men are always texting or calling her, etc. etc.  It's annoying as fuck.  I get it, you're hot shit.  I can see that just as well as you when we're out and the whole bar is gawking at you. STFU about it already.  She's also the kind of person who in the same breath will go on and on about how "ugly and fat" she is, at which point I do actually tell her to shut up. 


    We don't really hang out much.

  • SpOnTaNeOuS_sPiTbAlL@xanga

    childish. some people never leave high school.

  • rabbitsarecool14@xanga

    He is a little crazy...but when I hear a woman whine about things like "ugh I hate that men are always all over me because I'm beautiful" I sometimes feel like saying something too...perhaps not as drastically as this guy did.  Though I do agree, what he ended up doing was harassing...if he really wanted to speak his mind he could've just said something instead of yelling and waving him arms around.  I guess because to me, conceitedness outweighs any beauty you may have, which is why I roll my eyes when I see that happening, you instantly become ugly once you start talking like that.

  • WhenHateIsTheOnlyOption@xanga

    Ouch. That would have reduced me to tears, sorry. I except my looks because I can't do anything about them but some people find me attractive and some people have called me ugly. I can't please everybody. So I know I am not too ugly and that I am not all that. It's not good to be full of oneself because when they get rejected, it hurts. As for that loser, he was just bored.

  • vicdaily@xanga

    Is it bad that I found that really funny? I probably would have started laughing. I've never met a woman who was actually pretty enough to justify her boasting. I would probably give her a piece of my mind.

  • laytexduckie@xanga

    I usually just tell them to stop flattering themselves. Either that or I just roll my eyes and let out an anguishing sigh. It's a shame when people try to use their looks to get what they want or to try to elevate them above everyone else.

  • align___t@xanga

    yep fucked up people in the world. i had a similar experience. but it had nothing to do with my looks, more like insane woman i was stuck in the car with for two days. i did the same thing as that girl. because you dont want to provoke them you just want them to shut up so you can leave. and i actually smiled too, but it was more escapism because i just tuned her out and thought of something funny lol.



    but thats what happens when you're acting like a fuckin idiot. especially in a public place, jesus christ, i hear women 'brag about guys' all the time, and who the fuck cares. i could recite several of my friends 'hit ons' from beginning to end because i hear about it so much. do i care? sometimes, because its annoying. but seriously, that guy needs to walk that shit off and put on his big boy pants.

  • Hinase@xanga
  • jamoncita@xanga

    from this perspective, that guy looked ridiculous.  if i were that girl i would've been more than a bit nervous because he really seemed crazy.  i mean, no one was even talking to him and he just exploded.  and for the record you don't have to be super fine to get harassed, so it can't really be said that she must've been bragging about her looks.  also not all harassment is sexual harassment, which we can see from this video.  what a nutcase that guy is!

  • xXDC_luyouXx

    I'm going to be alone in my opinion but the person that is going off on the woman isn't exactly and completely -- unwarranted. 


    Hopefully, this "experience" will teach her to be more careful with what she says as to not provoke anyone.

  • eatingabook

    I think it is really mean-spirited too, even if she did boast about her appearance in some way. I mean I dunno, if someone did that in front of me I would probably laugh in my head, but not take the route of blowing up verbally and physically at them. It really seemed like that guy maybe had a bad day, or was itching for an argument in some way - I have come across people like that, ones who just want to start a scene in public for the hell of it. But dang, I am glad the west coast subway systems are much friendlier than this!

  • UnconventionalButterfly@xanga

    People have no manners these days...and he just made himself look like a fool. 

  • anonymous

    @xXDC_luyouXx - Well someone isn't getting laid. 

  • xx_ng_xx@xanga

    I've always said that I'm too ugly to be raped and those kind of comments. But you know I only say it because  do really believe it, I'm at a stage of life where I need to start learning to love myself. I really don't like it when people boast about their looks, although I do envy them because they have learned to love themselves, but if it comes to gloating too much, that's not acceptable.

    Also, I don't really see anyone with that guy either, so who is he to speak?

  • JessWantsThinspo@xanga

    That just made me Lol.
    He has no idea how much of a dickhead he made himself look like.
    And he's probarly proud for this. People these days..

  • P0RCELA1N_D0LL@xanga

    that guy looks crazy. if she argued back, I think he would've likely punched her. I would've acted like he didn't exist because people like this just wants to get you riled up to start drama and I'm not falling for it nor giving him the satisfaction of seeing me angry. I'd rather be stuck up and beautiful than a lunatic asshole

  • CHRiSTiNE_x@xanga

    @aznsam999@xanga - hahaha, thank you. got a good laugh out of this comment.
