    Take your kid to the playground.

    It’s a perfect equivalent, because you’ll get the occasional sexist saying vile things and forcing you to leave, too! But mostly, women will fawn over you.

      Even the dating market demands experience for an entry level position now.

      When I was a teenager, I used to walk my grandma’s cute dog past the nearby all-girls school when the girls were coming out at the end of the schoolday.

      Guy with cute dog + dozens of girls around = loads of attention ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

      It’s funny, two things that made it infinitely easier to pick up women were my wedding ring and my kids. Of course it’s probably the complete lack of pressure, knowing I’m not actually picking up anyone. Always been a confidence issue.

        I don’t have any kids, but I’ve heard from friends. Man with kid = pedophile, somehow, in some people’s minds.
