People are mocking this “how to talk to a woman with headphones” article: the best 8 tweets

Twitter is today mocking this ridiculous pick-up artist article “how to talk to a woman with headphones” – basically with the main thrust being that encouraging people to try and pick up women on the street is an invasion of space.

Basically it goes like this:

1. Stand in front of her (with 1 to 1.5 meters between you).

2. Have a confident, easy-going smile.

3. If she hasn’t already looked up at you, simply get her attention with a wave of your hand. Wave your hand in her direct line of vision so she can see it.

Our tip from uncle Poke for our young male readers is: approach women in contexts where they’ve signalled they want to be approached, like Tinder.

Also don’t send unsolicited dick pics.

Or unsolicited balls pics.

This isn’t a loophole. Trust us.
