why do i detect an underlying assumption that if you are a guy and google a girl, it's creepy and stalking whereas if a girl does it, then it's 'being safe'?

 

b/c you're right on the money about the assumption and that statement in general. reality bites eh?

I didn't see a mention of "being safe", maybe I just overlooked it. But no, I don't think the story is any different in any case. How would google info lead to a good coversation anyway? What's your lead-in, "Hey, I was doing some online stalking and I found out you like to post inane comments in spray." Does that work?

If some broad said she checked me out on the internet I would promptly walk out, weirdo, she probably online dates: translates to I have no life skills

 

What's wrong with googling someone prior to a date?

 

I assume you check out the webpage of a company before interviewing for a job there?

You obviously haven't plumbed the depths of desperation.

 

Or savored the fruits of very low standards.

I find that a lot of the women who are quick to talk about the dangers of "stalkers" or ... "creepy" guys ... seem to fall in one of three categories:

 

 

1) They have personally been stalked (or worse) by a creepy guy, and it was a scary, traumatic experience, OR...

 

2) They're rather fat and/or ugly, and secretly wish that once, just for once, someone would actually stalk them, OR...

 

3) They enjoy watching a nice, sensitive guy squirm in his seat and rush to reassure the rest of the room that he would NEVER do anything to harm a woman or make her feel uncomfortable ... I've watched this exact kind of scenario unfold on more than one occasion.

I haven't verified it, but for true cyberstalkers, supposedly revealing things can be found by searching http://www.zabasearch.com/ .

 

Google is informative. Not morally different than seeing if there is anything on a particular subject by doing a search in the magazine database in the public library. It is what you do with the information that could make you creepy.
