Man Keeps Hitting On A Teen Girl Until She Tells Him She’ s On Live Video

Jonas Grinevičius and
Mindaugas Balčiauskas
Nobody should feel like their personal space is being invaded by someone who frightens you. And nobody should be hit on when they clearly show they're scared and don't want anything to do with you through their body language and tone of voice. Especially while live-streaming in a public place. However, that's exactly what happened to an 18-year-old student, who goes by maassassin_ on TikTok, whose videos of being hit on by an older man in a hotel courtyard went viral on social media. There were plenty of women who said they know perfectly well how she must have felt and that dealing with creeps is a nearly daily occurrence for plenty of them. Watch the videos and let us know what you think and if you've ever been in a similar situation as the teenager has, dear Pandas. And be sure to read on for Bored Panda's interview about staying safe with 'Hollaback!', an organization that aims to stop harassment in all of its forms.

A teenager s videos of being hit on by a creepy older guy went viral and they resonated with a lot of people especially women

She was live-streaming when the dude approached her so she captured the entire interaction in two viral videos

@maassassin_Scariest night of my life so far. #fyp #kidnapping #stranger #creepy #april24 #scary #staysafe #foryou #man #help♬ original sound – That's Mrs, Whitethorn to you @maassassin_I never expected this to happen to me in the middle of a hotel courtyard. #help #man #foryou #staysafe #scary #april24 #creepy #stranger #kidnapping♬ original sound – That's Mrs, Whitethorn to you Staying safe on the streets and in public spaces is incredibly important, so Bored Panda reached out to 'Hollaback!' for a comment on how to react to harassment. Jorge Arteaga, the organization's Deputy Director, said that each and every situation is different and that 'Hollaback!' honors "how folks choose to protect themselves." Trusting your instincts and deciding what's right for you at the time is what's important. 'Hollaback!' has three main strategies on how to respond to harassment. "First, 'trust your instinct' and there is no right or wrong response to harassment. Whatever your response is in the moment was the right response for you," Arteaga told Bored Panda about the first two strategies. "Next is, 'Reclaim your space,' if you choose to. You can tell them to leave you alone or what you want them to do and why, ask people for help, or document the situation and use it for reporting purposes, if you choose," he said. The key here is choice: there really isn't a wrong way to react to harassment because you're trusting your instincts and nobody knows what's right for you in the moment better than you because you're actually living it.

The teenager was clearly scared and didn t want to talk to the guy who was chatting her up

The teen gave some extra information about what happened and how she felt in a follow-up video

@maassassin_update! #stranger #creepy #april24 #scary #foryou #staysafe♬ original sound – That's Mrs, Whitethorn to you The teenager originally posted two videos about the interaction with the creepy guy, as well as a couple of follow-ups. One of the people to help the initial video go viral is podcaster Chris Evans (no relation to Captain America's actor), who was horrified that somebody would hit on a teenager when she was live-streaming. Her initial video had over 12.2 million views at the time of writing. Meanwhile, in a couple of follow-up videos, she went on to explain that the guy who hit on her seemed to be far older than she was, in his 30s. In other words, he should have known better than to try hitting on somebody who very clearly wanted to be left alone. The teenager indicated multiple times that she didn't want to have a chat with the guy who was hitting on her and it took a while for him to get the hint. Fortunately, things ended well and the student's friend was even making sure that she was all right from afar. What's more, the student spoke to the receptionist at the hotel's front desk who explained that they'll have a talk with the guy about his behavior. Hopefully, things will change for the better as more people become aware that these kinds of situations simply aren't ok.

Unfortunately these sorts of situations are nothing new to women who have to deal with them on a regular basis

Say it clearly, say it confidently and loud: 'Leave me alone. Do not sit at my table. Go away.' Practice in front of the mirror if you're not sure you could do it for real. Don't be afraid to ask someone else (e.g. staff) for help. It's not making a fuss. 54 54points reply Blogwave Blogwave Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I feel scared to do shout at them like that because then the situation can get aggressive and violent. They can easily suddenly switch from being "friendly" to abusing you and saying you're an ugly b*tch anyway and getting violent. 29 29points reply Load More Replies... Nat Hedley Nat Hedley Community Member • points posts comments upvotes 1 year ago (edited) Not shout - just in a clear, firm voice that's more than a 'quiet conversation with a person next to you' volume. It's unlikely to make them escalate if you're just making it clear you're not a soft target. Edit: I do understand your concerns and am not trying to invalidate how you feel about this; it can be scary however you play it but acting confident is very off-putting to creeps. 7 7points reply Kari Panda Kari Panda Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Someone ignoring your polite way of asking them to leave the first time will also ignore a polite request from you the second, third time etc. though. I understand your fear, but what other options are there? The only other options I see are leaving (and then they might follow you) or for you to keep suffering through it all. In which case they might become more and more confident that they can do whatever they want with you and start touching you. The only really good other option I can think of is calling a person you know over if someone’s nearby. 3 3points reply Jo Firth Jo Firth Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago You don't have to shout, just be direct. If they don't leave then just walk away. And to be honest, so what if they call you names - that's on them, not you. 0 0points reply Marnie Marnie Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago How often to men actually physically attack women in public? It's exceedingly rare, so I wouldn't worry about getting violent, not in the US, anyway. If no one else is around, that's a different story. -2 -2points reply Lily Mac Lily Mac Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I tried this once, wasnt rude, was just firm and the guy flipped. Starting shouting about how I was a stuck up bitch and that he was only trying to be nice. Made the whole thing way scarier tbh now I just smile and try to find a way to get away from them. 7 7points reply Cassie Cassie Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I've been in this situation several times. I've been polite but terrified many times. I've been straight up rude a couple of times, but I'm careful because that can escalate the situation. The response I've found works best is to feign panic. I say, "I'm not comfortable with you here" and when he ignores me I say it louder and in a more frightened tone and if he continues I start shouting it loudly on repeat. So far, this has always thrown them off. It's a completely unexpected response and nobody seems to know how to deal with it, plus it attracts witnesses to your plight, which is also off-putting for the aggressor. 6 6points reply Deborah B Deborah B Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago The problem is that this escalates the situation - many cases rejection results in the man becoming verbally abusive and physically intimidating, it can become physically violent. She is surrounded by other people now, but she has to be aware of the risk that the guy will hang around and catch her alone. It is safer to wave at any rando across the room, and say "Oh, I see my friends, got to go, byeeee!" Then you tell random stranger, pref a woman or a couple, "this guy's scaring me, can you please walk me out/ let me sit with you /stay with me till my friends/uber get here." It's safest to remove yourself, rather than try to stand your ground. Just don't go anywhere you will be alone, in case he follows. 5 5points reply Marnie Marnie Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago How often does it get physically violent (in the US)?! I've never even heard of that. -2 -2points reply Kim Grace Kim Grace Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I’ve been followed in a parking lot by a man threatening physical violence, claiming to know where I lived, and saying he could show up at any time. Why? Because I didn’t say hello back to him. Physical violence isn’t the only thing that can be damaging. 1 1point reply lenka lenka Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I agree Nat. I completely understand what the posters are saying about the risk of escalating, but the risk of NOT escalating in this scenaro is extremely high. This young girl comes across as a very easy target. In the public space he is unlikely to do anything, but if he is simply getting the measure of his vitctim then her meek and polite behaviour is only going to encourage him to lurk and wait. If you are firm, with strong eye contact tell him to go away he will likely call you a bitch and may abuse you but is also more likely to seek an easier target. We are at risk if we call them out, but we are at greater risk if we dont. Look hard at them. Make it obvious you are getting thier description. Eye contact. Firm Voice. And if you dont feel fierce, fake it til you make it. 4 4points reply Potato Potato Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Nat, have you actually tried this method yourself? Because I have. It resulted in him threatening me and trying to invade my space even further. He backed off when someone stepped in, but then later I saw him lurking (possibly waiting for me to be alone, and like hell I would let that happen after experiencing that). I'm not saying women should continue to be meek and polite, but can you see how careful we need to be? We've heard this advice before. We hear it all the time. Because it ultimately comes down to women to be accountable. Why is the first advice always to what the woman should do? 3 3points reply Nadine Debard Nadine Debard Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Ah... If only I dared to respond when I was a young teen... It's sad to say that, getting used to it, you learn to determine who you can give sh*t and who you have to run away from. Most creeps will chicken out if you reply firmly. But some (few) of them are really dangerous. 3 3points reply Tracy Wallick Tracy Wallick Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago The reason we as women aren't that direct, is because there are far, far too many examples of men who have attacked, raped and even killed women for rejecting their advances. We don't know if the man who is clearly ignoring our discomfort and boundaries is one of those kinds of guys, and it's just not worth the risk. 2 2points reply Mark and Elmo Mark and Elmo Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago DUDE!

He thinks this will count in his favor as she indicated he could have the chair—-consent—-but he’ll just forget about her not wanting him at her table. Second, instead of apologizing for the misunderstanding and moving on, he planted his feet under her table, and started trying to get her name, even after she plainly says she did not invite him to sit with her. Third, he only leaves when she says she’s streaming live, and could turn the camera on him and immediately ID him—-and I wish she had! He’s probably a chronic perv who hits on very young women and is scared shitless of losing his anonymity, plus his job, family, reputation, and freedom (jail, if his usual victims are teenagers). Too many commenters here are making excuses for him, because of his age. Listen, if old dogs can learn new tricks, then old men can get with the times, learn this behavior is wrong and not tolerated, and then stop it. 27 27points reply Lenka Smetanová Lenka Smetanová Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago On Saturday I was on morning train to our capital city. I was at coupe for woman, so no man is allowed there... A woman with baby boy came there too and be there with me. At one point, before we reach the final destination, I went on WC. When I came back, I walk across a man i n the corridor who just returning into his coupe. I entered ours, and the woman look at me scared saying, that after I left, a man came there and star asking her, If she want to hang out with him and if she needs help with carriage.
