I recall a time where there were some things that are parents did or grand parents did, (ie fathers and grand fathers specifically)...would do to approach a woman.
I would say approaching a lady out in public, with no other social ties whatsoever to her, was more common than it is today.
For instance, my dad approached my mom at the beach simply because they were parked next to each other.
How receptive would a woman be today if the same situation were to occur? As a man would you try to strike up a convo with a woman that wound up being near your vicinity at such a place or event? Be it a concert, beach, or public situation?
You just need to not be a creep and you can talk to chicks anywhere. Don't talk to them if they have headphones in or don't tell them to smile and you will be golden.
women have it 9999999999999999999999999999999999 times easier all they have to do is smile and make eye contact for attention..
men have to second guess.....if shes married, a boyfriend, a lesbian, a trans... or high powered man eater .
by the time men are 25, 30 they have been rejected hundreds of times or told no..... women cant relate to this ..as most wont approach a guy …
but like to be chased..
also today ...if a woman sees a man approaching the defensive creep shields go up.....and she's looking at you like she passed gas... and wants to escape
the best you can do is be nice respectful...… keep in mind women are like cats...… ..you cant push them to like you...

OP, people still do that. You've been on this board long enough, to see the recommendations, that people get off the internet, and start mingling in public, for example. We had one guy here for awhile, who said he approached a number of women per week, a couple a day, at least, just by being friendly and chatty. He's married now. Women are definitely open to that. You'd be surprised how many women are not on OLD, don't go to bars, and meet guys the way you describe.
Striking up a friendly conversation is one thing. Approaching someone you've never met for the sole purpose of hitting on them is something else. It's incredibly sleazy and always has been

Hyperbole, much? Give it a rest. The guys who get somewhere with women, are the ones who strike up a chat without needing "signals". They're comfortable with just being neighborly and friendly. Probably the OP's mom wasn't smiling or making eye contact; she was probably just getting out of her car, and getting her beach bag, to head down to the beach. Second-guessing doesn't enter into the mind of guys like that. (Nor of women, who try to chat up guys, either.). If you have to worry about all that, you'll never get anywhere; you'll end up paralyzing yourself.
