My thoughts is that it’s a simple situation really. If they’re harassing or assaulting people, the women will call the cops or something, simple situation and get the guy arrested. If he’s not doing anything, it’s nothing harmful. Apparently that’s not a solid enough answer. What should I have said?

    “You think about strange men’s genitals a lot, don’t you?”

      Or… “You seem to want to talk about sex a lot. Is everything OK at home?”

      Depends how likely an actual productive conversation was. It’s not an invalid question without context. With the typical coconuts, yeah maybe just embarrass them.

        It’s not an invalid question without context.

        On the contrary: it is more than famous enough as a right-wing “gotcha” question that’s very fair to assume it’s invalid by default. Positive context would be necessary to justify treating it as genuine.

        typical coconut

        …? Brown on the outside, white on the inside? Like a white-washed Indian person?
