Little exchange I had with a woman on a dating site.

Me: So XXXX what do you like to do for fun?
Her: Anything classy. How about a stranger danger.

At this point I googled 'stranger danger' to see if it was an urban dictionary term and got nothing besides references to child stalkers.

Me: Ok, so whats a stranger danger? Looked up 'stranger danger' on google and it referred to people stalking kids lol.
Her: doubt it it's double meaning. Strangers in reference of what is this site.

So I took it as a very vague way of saying she would be open for meeting and asked her out for a drink this Saturday.

I didn't know either... but I also googled it and found another definition (that would make sense).

A weird person who wants to hang out with you before you even know them.
Urban Dictionary: stranger danger

So I am thinking you are right. That she wants to meet up even though you don't know each other well (and I assume by something classy, she means not a "hook up" kind of thing).

always nice to start off as being a classless dangerous stranger lol.

Does this actually mean she likes classless dangerous strangers but is suppressing it? Faking it until she makes it.

Dang. I've been stranger dangering it my whole time online dating then huh? MY result was good though. Married from someone I met online. Just bought a house.

I was always wise though meeting them in public place. Not hang out 'hang out'. It is just easier talking to them in person rather than on phone or typing.

LOL.. me too. I when I did OLD, I was always keen to meet up right away. I can see where the term comes from, because you do meet some real mismatches that way. But I preferred it because I really can't get a sense if I am attracted to a person until I meet him in the flesh.

Precisely. And that's what the reason I always say too. And it goes for the guys as well. I want them to know if they like me physically, so as not to waste their time and mine.

Maybe she wants to meet you in a dark alley with you wearing nothing but your trench coat and fedora?

There is a part in the movie "Kindergarten Cop" that refers to "Stranger Danger" but it is used in the context of yelling the words "Stranger" when there is someone near or around you don't know.
It was a lesson being taught to children who were in kindergarten though (hence the name of the movie).

1) It's not "woman speak." Maybe a woman said it, but it's not something "women" say.

2) It's bizarre to me that "anything classy" was her first reply to a question about what she does for fun.

3) "Stranger danger" doesn't seem very classy.
