I agree. It is easy, convenient. And in some circles, the ability to pull it off successfully gives one a massive dose of approval from one's peers. I think an awful lot of men's edgy dating behavior is done to impress other men.
Heres why, bc its very easy and convenient. However it has been and always will be one of the least successful methods of getting a date. A little like playing Russian roulette.
It's not because it's easy and convenient (it's convenient I would agree, but it sure as heck wasn't easy for me for the longest time). Honestly, if it weren't for cold approaching, some guys (due to bad luck and career choice, among other things), would almost never have the chance for contact with women outside of the base friendly day to day business encounters (ie. cashiers, other retail positions). I know before I approached women, I didn't have much luck meeting women through friends, volunteering, etc.
Oh, no. I never cold approach women. But I know plenty of men who do. Much of the time, they seem to have less interest in the woman than in telling their buddies about it later.

dave, i can't say i agree with this particular statement. the odds may not be great, but the sheer number of choices potentially makes it an effective way of meeting people.

I think a lot of it depends on the setting. For example, a random approach on a ski field has a far better chance of success than one in a busy City when you are both walking down the street going about your daily business.
Bottom line, things that involve recreation are usually the one's where your odds are better.

It is simple, not always easy. People love to mix up words, or interchange words on this forum (well, in the world), such as physically good looking and attractive (two different things). Approaching someone cold is simple. Not always easy (though it can be since you have nothing vested).
