Some people are just ignorant of the fact that kdramas exist and others are hugely against them as if their life depends on it. Yet, Squid Game was able to win over even those Pakistanis who had a vendetta against this drama industry. Imagine that even after weeks of the drama’s release, publications and blogs are seen covering it.

What if seeing this publicity, a Pakistani drama creator decides to make a Pakistani version of it? Wajahat Rauf maybe or Momina Duraid? Who do you think would be cast in it? Let’s have a look!

1. Syed Mohammed Ahmed as Oh Il Nam

The character of Oh Il Nam was a father figure for Seung Gi Hun, so much that people were even speculating that he could be actually Gi Hun’s father. Considering Syed Mohammad Ahmed usually gets such roles, he could be a perfect fit for it. Moreover, given how Il Nam had an iconic twist to his character, the fact that Mr. Ahmed is a great actor, he would totally be able to pull it off.

2. Saheefa Jabbar for Kang Sae Byeok

Saheefa Jabbar’s hair can totally be styled to resemble Sae Byeok. Plus, Sae Byeok was probably the only character who had gradual and amazing character development. Giving it to Saheefa would be an amazing decision.

3. Usman Mukhtar as Hwang Jun Ho

The detective who sneaks into the gaming arena, Hwang Jun Ho requires someone of a stealthy nature. And who better than Aswad since he has the experience of stealthily walking out of a relationship with Mashal unscathed, kyunki me ne tm se kabhi pyaar mohabbat ki baat to nahi ki thi na, kabhi koi wada nahi kiya.

4. Mohsin Abbas as Cho Sang Woo

Mohsin Abbas retained his fan-following stature due to the support from the celebrity fraternity. But we are all witnesses to the drama he was involved in. Having him act as Cho Sang Woo who can stab people he is close to in the back would probably be the right fit.

5. Iqra Aziz As Ji Yeong

The character who was in the show for a very small time but won over all our hearts was Ji Yeong. She had no one left in the world so she happily sacrificed her life for Sae Byeok. The expressions and the way she delivered her dialogue with the tone that screamed, ‘she had given up’ is something the Ranjha Ranja Kardi actress can pull off in her sleep.

6. Sheheryar Munawar as the mysterious recruiter

To the ones who watched Squid Game as their first korean drama, this guy was only a cute mysterious recruiter. But to us, who thrive on Goblin, he was the reason we screamed when we saw him at the station. No one can match Gong Yoo whose expressions are enough to convey the entire storyline. But if we must think of who can play the character, then let’s go with Sheheryar Munawar.

7. Nayyar Ejaz as Deok Su  

Deok Su, the gangster looked purely evil. Not everyone has the talent to pull of an evil role. Saleem Miraj can be considered but his physique does not go with Deok Su and we know how important that is for the time when Mi Nyeo takes him and jump. Hence, we need to look for talent and physique that resembles the character. Nayyar Ejaz it is then.

8. Hania Aamir As Han Mi Nyeo

The annoying woman, Han Mi Nyeo was loud and could laugh and scream in the faces of betrayal and victory. As for Hania Aamir, she usually has had the roles of protagonists but she can fit the role because she is capable of dispensing these emotions. We have the evidence in the form of her projects Phir Wohi Mohabbat and Ana.

9. Imran Ashraf As Ali Abdul

The controversies that surround Ali Abdul are many. One of them would probably be the name and how it doesn’t make sense. Squid Game creators, Abdul is not a surname. Anyway, someone who looks innocent and is strong enough to not let Gi Hun die in the first game? It will be hands down, Imran Ashraf.

Image Source: Brandsynario

10. Feroze Khan As Front Man (In Ho)

Hwang Jun Ho’s brother, who he came in the arena to find, turns out it was the Front Man all along. Someone who looks cold enough to shoot his own brother but clever enough to do it on the shoulder so he can save him? Remember Ishqiya? The parallel between a villain and a lover? It has to be Feroze Khan.

Image Source: Brandsynario

11. And of course, Humayun Saeed as Gi Hun

Do we need to justify this? If Squid Game is made in Pakistan ever, it will be created by Humayun Saeed or Wajahat Rauf. And both of them will cast Humayun Saeed as player 456. Why? Because Humayun Saeed would still be playing the hero even 15 years down the line.

With inflation on the rise, it is the perfect time to leap into freelancing while retaining your current job. Here’s our guide to get you started.

The rise in technology increased access to the internet and the recent pandemic has increased the number of freelance workers globally. A 2019 study by Mastercard estimated that the global gig economy generated $204 billion in gross volume and is expected to grow by 17% by 2023. In US alone, it has been predicted that the country would have more giggers than non-gig workers.

In Pakistan as well, the freelancing industry is growing by leaps and bounds. According to data released by the Ministry of Information Technology and Telecommunication, freelancers in Pakistan collectively generated $216.78 million by exporting their services from July to December during the year 2021-22, 16.74% higher than last year’s earnings.

Image Source: Fresh Books

Today, Pakistan ranks 4th among the world’s fastest-growing freelance markets, where many freelancers are under the age of 30.

With remote work developing into the ‘new norm’, there are more freelancers than ever before and if you are looking to get into freelancing, this is the article for you. Whether you are a university student looking to make some money on the side or you are deciding to take it up as a career, here is a guide.

The 7 requisites

  • Define your service and offering

Clients should be able to readily understand your talents and knowledge. The first step toward becoming a thriving freelancer is to transform your expertise into services. You must comprehend the client’s circumstance and apply your services to solve their problem.

  • Find you target audience

You are the most knowledgeable about your abilities. Once you’ve determined your strong suit/the industry in which you want to freelance, you can start looking for your target audience. This may be accomplished by using social media sites such as Facebook and Instagram to market and promote your expertise.

  • Develop a pricing structure

You must consider your rivals when determining how much you should charge your clientele. What do other freelancers in your profession charge? The goal is to maximise profit while avoiding overcharging, which may result in client loss. Clients often consider experience, urgency, and project complexity when determining payment, therefore you must consider the same criteria while billing.

  • Create a portfolio with past jobs

Developing a strong portfolio is an essential step toward being a prosperous freelancer. Clients should be aware of your experience in the sector before they can trust you. Your portfolio should include examples of your greatest work connected to your service offering.

  • Write a good proposal

A well-written proposal should be a powerful selling point for your skills. It should detail the corporation’s needs, how you can assist, and your achievements and capabilities. Finally, it is critical to stay polite and approachable, therefore strive to utilize professional terminology to aid you standing out.

  • Create a relationship with your client

Building a long-term relationship can result in recurring business and customer recommendations. It is critical to do your tasks correctly, effectively communicate with your clients, and develop trust via regularity.

  • Continue developing your skills over time

Continue to hone your talents over time. Learn from prior clients’ blunders and strive to outperform them in the future. Maintain a good reputation for yourself and enroll in programs that will help you improve your talents. That’s it! You’re ready to freelance.

Most sought-after occupations in the gig world

  • Design

Creative design is a very profitable sector of business. To be successful as a freelance designer, you will need a wide portfolio that can demonstrate to potential clients what sort of work you can do. This is a good freelancing option if you have an art degree/ have graduated as an interior/ textile designer. Even if you are still studying, clients can look at your work and determine when they want to hire you.

  • Writer

Writing remains one of the best gig-economy jobs. Companies have large expenditures for generating high-quality articles, blogs, manuals, press releases, and other sorts of editorial text now that content has been dubbed the monarch of modern marketing. Writing as a kind of blogging on social networking platforms has been shown to be popular, particularly among university students. If you are a student wanting to freelance, writing appears to be one of the most realistic possibilities, owing to all the essays we are required to complete during our time at university.

Image Source: Freelancewriting
  • Marketing professional

Working as a freelance marketer might entail anything from running paid Facebook ads campaigns to completely redesigning the material on a website. A large and flourishing network of freelance marketing experts, strategists, and consultants exists. What is it that they all share in common? Digital abilities.

  • Videographer

To be a professional video producer, you must wow customers with your shooting and editing abilities. It will be much simpler to break into the market with a few years of job experience in this field, the correct software and equipment, and a great project portfolio.

However, years of videography experience are not required to be successful in the business. Check out @absoluteopia on Instagram, who is a student with little professional experience but is fantastic at filmmaking!

Although there are a plethora of websites offering freelance work, the popular ones include Linkedin, Freelancer, Fiverr, Upwork, Behance, SimplyHired, Guru, Dribbble, DesignHill etc.

For those looking for administrative or technical work, including social media managing, web development, or financial consulting, Upwork, Toptal, and Jooble are the go-to websites. However, if you’re looking for jobs on the creative side such as writers, graphic designers, or illustrators, Fiverr, Flexjobs and Dribbble can help you connect with the right people.

No matter which website you register with, it will be your performance at the end of the day that will matter and earn you more credibility and clients.

5 Pakistani Dramas That Taught Us Valuable Lessons

PEMRA just banned a drama serial for ‘indecent content’ and dramas like ‘Jhooti’ in which the issue of domestic violence is trivialized are common. However, in the middle of all these rotten eggs were some classic serials that taught us invaluable lessons. 

The list we have comprised for you will make sure you spend your time where it’s worth. Plus, you can learn great lessons on a range of issues too!

1. Baaghi

This deserves the first spot on the list. The drama was inspired by Qandeel Baloch, an internet sensation who was murdered by her brother in the name of honor. This drama was a great hit and remained one of the most popular ones to date. 

It highlights grave societal issues, problematic mindsets, and the chains of patriarchy.  Fouzia Azeem, aka Qandeel Baloch, is played by Saba Qamar, so you can be sure the acting is par excellence. It also depicts the dynamic of “had harami” where families enjoy a woman’s income and mistreat her for it.

2. Udaari

pakistani dramas

Another superb composition by the Pakistani industry. Udaari is based around the issues of child abuse. In this drama, the rapist comes to light after doing the crime, and he’s taken to court. This idea moved some gears in the minds of the audience and for a good reason.

It strived to show the rapist as the only one at fault and the victim as someone who was wronged. The central theme of the drama is that ‘a rapist is a culprit that needs to be punished and a girl is not guilty if she becomes a victim of the rape.’

3. Alif

pakistani dramas

Alif was also one of the best Pakistani dramas to date. That’s because the theme it is teaching is hugely different from the mess the usual ones like to dwell upon. Starring Hamza Ali Abbasi and Sajal, this drama focused on spirituality. It was about the fact that love between a man and God knows no bounds.

Alif highlighted that the path to spirituality might be difficult, but the destination is worth all you sacrifice. We loved this one, especially!

4. Daldal

pakistani dramas

This Pakistani drama is about human trafficking and illegal immigration. The attempt to shed light on these with an audience like ours must be commended. Daldal portrays the paradoxical belief that many Pakistanis have about their country— that they can not prosper here or sustain themselves on their soil. The main character, Shuja, illegally leaves for England, and there we see how he struggles to make ends meet.

In a way, it attempts to shatter the romanticized notions we have built about life abroad.

5. Sammi

pakistani dramas
Image Source: VeryFilmi

With a star-studded cast having the likes of Adnan Siddiqui, Mawra Hocane, and Sania Saeed, this drama also enjoyed its fair share of popularity. Sammi is a commentary on socially constructed gender relations.

It depicts how women are looked upon as the lesser sex while families are obsessed with their sons. It portrayed only how typically men control the lives of women in a family.

This ACCA Ad Is Making Netizens Ask The Same Question – How Is It Relevant?

ACCA is a competitive field where a strong majority of students choose to make their career paths. The field of accountancy is no easy feat however, it has been termed a  boring one. However, ACCA’s latest ad is a paradigm-changing one that completely changes the way we think about ACCA. 

Read more: Here’s How BTW Is Making Waves Among Gen-Z One Purchase At…

What Is It About?

The ad is called “Aagay Ki Soch” in which a whole song has been made on thinking ahead. Provided there is a song, the whole ad looks like a music video. It features three women singing and playing games and then actually having a dance routine too. The singers are from Gintara and their selection is a representation of diversity and inclusion.

Who would have thought dance, music, and song would be used by ACCA to promote itself and it would work so well? The choreography is eyecatching and the song goes incredibly well with the spirit of the ad— to put a new twist to the old.

What Worked And What Could Be Improved?

It nailed some aspects which were trying to show that ACCA can be a lot more than boring white offices. It chose to show only women to encourage women to be a part of the field, to be the face of ACCA. They also had young women to target young people who will be deciding their careers. The ad seems to be clearly built on the premise of innovation, integrity and inclusion. 

It brings forth the idea that Gen Z is the population that breaks past all barriers and revolutionizes each field they touch. The lyrics are suggestive of the fact that qualified finance professionals from ACCA can be remarkable globally. Think Ahead – think of the future and what can be achieved! We loved the neon colours and the uplifting vibe of the ad altogether.

However, sing-songey ads and dance routines ads feed into the culture of everything having to do with pop. Many might be confused about the message since it requires reading into it.

The Song

“Aagay Ki Soch” could be a banger, let’s be real. The song has well-thought-out lyrics that could appeal to even the toughest crowd. For instance, when they sing “ginti ki game hai saari, yehi hai dunya daari” it really hits. It brings home the idea that the skills ACCA teaches are not limited to just screens, they’re life skills that take Gen Z to the next levels.

“Jidhar bhi tu jayega, rasta tu payega” is also another verse that remained stuck in our heads. It captures the mindset that Gen Z are unstoppable when they put their minds to something.

What Did People Say?

People are discussing this ad on KAMN on Facebook, a group where all sorts of advertisements are discussed. Many are confused about the relevance of this ad to the field of accountancy because they are not reading into it. From the surface level, they just see a song. Others are raising constructive critique where they think the ad has some good elements but it missed out heavily which is why this ad does not stand to make an impact.

McDonald’s just keeps getting better in the Netherlands. The fast-food joint has come up with a device that will make you feel like you’re definitely living in the age of technology. When technology comes together with our favorite junk food, what else do we need in life? Here’s the simple answer: nothing. Read all about the latest invention here:

Read more: Here’s How McDonald’s Is Asking Its Consumers To Be More Responsible

The Big Mac Smoke Detector

The people over at McDonald’s created a Big Mac Smoke Detector. What it does is that it is fixed in your kitchen. When it smells that food has been burnt or something, it immediately orders your pre-selected meal from your nearest McDonald’s. New food gets delivered to you within minutes because McDonald’s understands that not everyone is a Masterchef. 

The Machine

The machine was made in the iconic Big Mac shape because nothing says McDonald’s more than a meaty and fulfilling Big Mac. Moreover, the machine is entirely 3D printed and they fixate the smoke detector within it.

There is definitely one downside though. That is that the machine could actually be made more aesthetically pleasing and nice looking. It would look really odd to have a big bulging Big Mac hanging from your roof in your kitchen. However, when it offers McDonald’s as a savior within minutes when you burn your food, we guess anything works.

New Age Invention

This is a peak example of how the technology of today is being used to revolutionize the way we live our lives. No one would have ever guessed that one day there would be a McDonald’s smoke detector that could automatically order you McDonald’s when you burn your food. It is because of the invention of the 3D printer and other technology that something so incredibly convenient has been created.

McDonald’s has been staying ahead of the curve in countries abroad with various incentives and missions. It recently put up a whole range of ads in another country to encourage people to pick up their waste. It’s time we see a new way of functioning from the fast-food joints because their popularity can be utilized for good.

Fahad Mustafa and Mahira Khan have shared the first trailer of their upcoming hit, Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad. The movie is an action-comedy that will finally be hitting the screens a year too late due to the pandemic. The trailer, a total of 2 minutes and 25 seconds is packed with a lot. Here’s what it offers:

The Storyline

The storyline follows the life of a notorious cop who is played by Fahad Mustafa. It appears that Mahira Khan is his aide and also his love interest. There is another don and then the major police officer is Mehmood Aslam. The film is directed by Nabeel Qureshi.

A post shared by Fahad Mustafa (@mustafafahad26)

The idea is that Quaid-e-Azam is printed on the notes so he can keep an eye on us. The entire movie revolves around the presence of Jinnah and how he can see when the people of his nation do something wrong. In all of this, there comes a point when Quaid-e-Azam’s image gets lost from the rupee notes altogether. The fight then becomes about corruption.

Mahira Khan’s Scenes

The trailer also gives glimpses of another dance song (not sure if it can be called an item song) that is done by Mahira Khan. She seems to be adorned in a parrot green shalwar kameez suit while she’s performing in the song.

Mahira Khan also has other fun scenes such as the ones in which she’s learning to shoot a gun or when she’s riding on a bike with Fahad Mustafa out of urgency.

Action Unlike Ever Before

The film is also giving Dabangg vibes from head to toe. Fahad Mustafa in the tightly fitted police uniform and the whole host of stunts his character performs is nothing short of Dabangg. We see him breaking a wooden panel on the shoulder of one of his enemies and he turns around to finish an impactful dialogue.

One thing is for sure, the movie is incredibly well-shot. From the action scenes to the landscape scenes where the wide-zoom angle is utilized to show more than just the actors. We’re beyond excited to have the much-awaited film Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad hit the screens. Are you?

6 Sweat-Proof Makeup Tips You Must Try This Summer

Let’s face it… in a few days, the summer heat is going to get to the level where your makeup is dripping before you have even sat inside your car. Pakistan especially gets extremely hot, and nothing seems to keep your makeup in place.

If you’re struggling like we are, here are the best 7 tips to try that can be life-changing!

1. Start with Primer

Many makeup artists have stressed the importance of a primer. A primer can serve specific functions for different skin types. For instance, you can opt for a mattifying primer for oilier skin to keep your skin matte.

Moreover, a primer helps your makeup go on smoother; it actually grips your makeup to your face.  

2. Choose Your Foundation Wisely

If your skin tans easily, opt for a foundation shade that matches your summer skin, or you can look ashy. Avoid the heavy, hydrating foundations made for winters; instead, opt for lighter, oil-controlling ones.

The best option is to go for a tinter moisturizer with SPF!

3. Water Proof Makeup is Key

Opting for waterproof makeup will ensure you don’t look like you walked out of a horror movie once your face starts to sweat. Having makeup that is not waterproof in summers means that it can become smudged with your facial sweat/oil, making you look unkempt.

4. Lip Stains or Facial Tints FTW

Although many of us don’t opt for lipsticks anymore, you can opt for tints to keep you looking fresh, thanks to the mask life. Several tints work as eyeshadow, blush as well as a lip stain!

5. Get, Set, Go

Do not forget to set your makeup if you want to combat the heat and dripping makeup. Setting sprays ensure your makeup is locked onto your skin, and they can serve different functions too. Want a dewy look? Get a dewy setting spray. Or, if you’re into the matte look, there are setting sprays that mattify your makeup too.

6. Keep Tissues/Blotting Paper On Hand

Blotting facial papers is not available in Pakistan readily, so you can add them to your wishlist when someone comes from abroad next time.

However, an alternative until then is your good ol’ tissue paper! Keep tissue papers in your bag, which you can tap onto the oily parts of your skin to absorb the excess oil or sweat.

Meet Pakistani Founded Anmol Network, “The Ultimate No-Code Builder For Web3”, Which Allows You To Create Anything In The World Of NFTs, Defi, Gamefi, And Metaverse At The Click Of A Button

The WordPress or Canva For Web3

Remember when having a website or logo involved hiring a development or design team? If you don’t, this means that you have been riding the wave of the Internet’s mass adoption. For some of us, we can claim to be amongst the first 25 million Internet users back in 1994 when there were only a few thousand websites in the whole world. Having an identity on the internet was disproportionate, and the vast majority of users could interact on the internet yet were unable to build on the internet.  This quickly changed and products and solutions such as WordPress, Joomla, Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, and Canva came to the market and enabled anyone to stake their claim to a piece of the internet and build their brand, portfolio, business, eCommerce shop or other forms of virtual identity.

It is 2022, and history is repeating itself, but with Web3.0. With Web3, the most important thing to understand is that we are really not dealing with a new concept, we are in the evolution of the internet. The thing is, that Web3 in its current state is much like the internet in 1994, it is deeply inaccessible and incomprehensible to the average user, and often produces “The Rabbit Hole Effect”. Interested and engaged internet users set out to learn one feature or function of Web3 and subsequently end up in a never-ending Rabbit Hole of seemingly endless videos and articles to learn new terms, which each resource adding an additional ten or more concepts to learn.
After all of this learning, and moderate proficiency to use Web3 technologies, one question still remains and that is ”How can I build on Web3?”

Help us Anmol Network, You’re Our Only Hope

This is where things get interesting for Web3, and the users struggling to become a part of the next wave of the web, with a new project quickly rising to step in and save users from falling down the rabbit hole.  Meet Anmol Network: “The Ultimate No-Code Builder For Web3”, focused on ease of use and accessibility. Functioning like a WordPress or Canva for every facet of Blockchain Technology, Anmol empowers everyday internet users, small or large businesses, or developers to participate in the Blockchain space, and build Web3 micro-projects with simple, easy-to-use applications at a nominal transaction cost, and with no development skills required.

Anmol Network offers tools for NFTs, Metaverse, GameFi, and DeFi, as well as Social Tools that bring the connectivity and engagements of social networks to the Blockchain space. Whether a user wants a new audited token with customized vesting, a DAO, a generative art NFT project of thousands, or even millions of NFTS, this and much more can happen in minutes using Anmol’s tools and Decentralized Applications (DApps).

Everybody in The Metaverse is “Homeless”

The Web3 market is currently disjointed, off-putting to newcomers, and deeply inaccessible. Anmol Network is aiming to fix this by crafting an interoperable and beginner-friendly infrastructure for onboarding and transitioning organizations into Web3 technologies. This is necessary for widespread adoption and overall maturity, as an industry like this cannot grow and become stable without a global network of varied and avid users.

In virtual spaces, like video games or mobile apps, users can create identities and build, this is appealing because they can have more power or control than they do in the real world. The way that Web3 and the Metaverse are structured right now, is inaccessible and more inhibiting than societal class or financial dependency in the real world. Users can get coffee or an apartment in the real world, but in the metaverse, this is not affordable or obtainable for a vast majority of users, most people in the metaverse are actually “ homeless”.

The solution to this problem is a simple easy-to-use application such as Anmol Network, that empowers users to create their own Metaverse constructs shadowing every niche market in the real world, and allowing any user to engage, participate and build within the emerging digital markets.

It’s The End of The Internet As We Know It

The internet as we know it is going through a metamorphosis. Similar to how users were once hesitant to use debit cards, mobile phones, and yes the internet today, we may also be reluctant to embrace the change upon us.

Change is oftentimes only uncomfortable because we can only see what we are moving away from and not what we are moving towards. Web3 will be amazing, sit back and enjoy the ride towards mass adoption, or build your own empire and get your foot in the door while things are just starting to heat up.

“In order for mass adoption to occur,  things around the Web3 space need to get easier as time progresses, but the way things are evolving right now, things are becoming increasingly more difficult for new users to engage with” explains Furqan Ahmed, Founder, and CVO of Anmol Network ” I wanted to change that with Anmol, this is why we are creating a simple and highly user-friendly No-Code Builder For Web3, and a new blockchain that can seamlessly connect to a myriad of other chains. Because not only should this technology be accessible to all, but we are on a mission to create a rich ecosystem where all blockchains are able to freely share ideas with each other. Accessibility is a big thing for us!”

The Web3 space is growing at a faster annual rate than the internet initially had. With all of this potential, tools and resources must be provided to foster the mass adoption of Web3 technologies.

Anmol aims not only to bring growth to its ecosystem but for the blockchain and Web3 industries as a whole. They are building simple, yet multi-faceted, tools designed for blockchain beginners or existing web2.0 developers, and businesses looking to give Web3 a try, and facilitating the new generation of online activity. Anmol’s tools are premiering their launch on Polygon, while developing for deployment on their native chain, and many other chains such as BSC, Solana, Tezos, Flow, and more! Anmol Network is heavily focused on integrations, providing use-cases, and supporting the transition to Web3 for non-blockchain establishments such as Schools, Museums, Galleries, and Event Arenas.

6 Things Men Can Do To Make Women Feel Safer In Their Presence

In today’s age, the discussion on feminism can very easily become counter-productive. With the rise of the cancel culture, men and women alike simply become discreet with their problematic habits rather than fixing them. However, if people aren’t told the right way to do things, change is more than what we can expect. So, here’s how we can play a small part in making spaces more women-friendly:

1. Don’t Walk Behind Them

In public spaces or even inside institutions, if there aren’t a lot of people nearby you need to think about where you walk. Chances are if you’re walking behind a woman, she will feel afraid and anxious. Either slow down your pace or fasten it up to get ahead of them!

2. Don’t Be Silent

If women are voicing their unfortunate experiences or simply sharing an incident where they have been disadvantaged because of their gender, speak up! Many times men become silent thinking this is not their place to speak. However, if you don’t speak, you won’t learn and they won’t feel safer!

3. Keep Your Distance

Women in public spaces can generally be wary of men in their close proximity. Be mindful of their wariness and instead of taking it personally, be better! Keep your distance so they are aware you do not pose a danger to them.

4. Hands Where They Can See Them

Often times, we’re walking casually and our swinging hands can touch the other person. If you’re a guy and this happens with you, know that when it’s a woman on the receiving end, it can feel horrifying. Instead, walk carefully when you have women nearby so you do not accidentally touch them.

5. Intervene When Things Are Fishy

Often times women are grappling with uncomfortable situations with strangers on their own. It can be a man who’s being too close or someone who is repeatedly staring at them or following them. If you observe this happening near you, step in to alleviate the situation.

6. Gauge Interest Levels Before Acting

Instead of flirting with just about any girl who smiles at you, gauge the other person’s interest level. Flirting with a woman who isn’t showing any interest in you can make them feel unsafe and uncomfortable. Be appropriate!
