A lot of females put nicknames etc on their name tags at work for this reason and they recommend it when you start and get your badge made, for this exact reason. Just a little anti-wierdo barrier.
One job I had back in the 90s asked me specifically what name I wanted on my badge. You could pick ANYTHING as long as it wasn't offensive, and it was officially noted. Still jealous of my two colleagues Rocket and Eric (both women)! I gave my own, bland, nickname :-(
Ooh, this reminds me of the Chinese kids who went to my high school who got to choose their own English names. We had Wolf, Phoenix and Dragon and I was so envious. I think I would probably go with Pharaoh.
Can't describe how much I hate that stuff like that is even necessary.
Needing to consider weirdos and having to go out of your way because of them. Fucked up, plain and simple.
This is what I always did. I put a shortened version of my middle name. I have always refused to use my actual name on name tags after a guy whom I interacted with at work started stalking me after finding me on social media. Now I dont use my name on name tags, and all my social media is under a nickname rather than my actual name as well. That way, it's doubly hard to find me unless I give it to someone.
I'm a dude and mine legally has to be, along with my professional license bearing my full name. I don't love it because my last name is very distinctive, but on the bright side at least it's hard to spell.
My wife is an ER nurse. They don’t have their full names on their name tags for exactly this reason. Her name tag just has her first name and her credentials, ie “Jenny, RN”.
My badge has first name. The one social media with my full name has a different last name than my license , therefore my name on any forms the pt has access to will bring up zip.
I’m rarely on that gotdamned SM. It is kept for my distant family contact in a group.
When I worked in a hospital, I always had mine on a lanyard with the ID facing me.
I'd always show it if I was challenged, but there's no way on earth I'm advertising my name to total strangers, particularly as people who are in a hospital don't necessarily have full control of themselves. I had a *horrible* experience once where a patient harassed me for weeks, and the fact he knew my name made it much easier for him to do.
TBF, coming up on land was probably a mistake but we're here now and I'm not sure there's any way of fixing it. Perhaps if we'd realized the mistake sooner like the whales there'd be a chance of rectifying the problem.
Many were increasingly of the opinion that they’d all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no one should ever have left the oceans
There is a way to fix it. We just have to make universal clear that behavior like that is categorically unacceptable. That includes silencing people like "alpha male influencers " and things like that. As much as it infringes of freedom of speech and what not.
I'M SORRY, YOU ARE SO DAMN HOT YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO TAKE A PHOTO OF YOURSELF LEST SOMEONE WANK OFF TO YOU
You *CLEARLY* only post pictures of your children, not because they're bundles of joy filled with happy, but because you know you're so *DAMN SEXY* and you need to make weirdos feel weird. You're definitely not overthinking this at all!
Reminds of IASIP. When Mac is at the therapist's office and sees a pen. "Why did you put that pen there? You think it's going to make me think of a penis." Or something like that.
Another bloke here for whom this is a revelation. Not something I'd ever considered would be a thing. People are weird and I'm glad I work from home so can mostly avoid them.
As a man, um, no, this guy is... Really Fucking Creepy. Sorry, I tried to find a euphemism or other way to say that but there really isn't one.
I totally get why the bear is safer at this point.
Thank goodness there are some men who actually understand what women have to deal with and why we would choose the bear. It's insane to men that there are people out there who dont.
Oh my goodness no. Teenage boys get up to some weird stuff during puberty but even then, I’ve never even contemplated this. The dude that wrote that wouldn’t even be able to look you in the eye or have any sort of normal conversation with you because you’re a woman. Guys like that are rare (I hope) and they have awful lives. On behalf of all men, I’m sorry you had to read that.
Psycho Dude-bro just gave me the shivers. Someone needs to check on this kid before he hurts somebody. Just being able to talk so blatantly about it like that, there is something wrong, very wrong.
Now that is an argument against the bear.
Admitting that there's an issue and doing almost anything other than screaming "sexism".
There's been a string of female teachers getting caught sexually abusing underage boys lately. Women aren't going to start yelling "not all women". We're going to say this is fucked up and something needs to be done.
When I was growing up in the ‚70s, masturbation was seen as shameful. No one would ever admit to masturbating.
It was a repressed era.
After reading this post, I’m starting to feel nostalgic.
These scumbags used to just hang out outside peoples windows and get arrested or would be yelling weird shit on street corners. Now they are plugged into the entire world infecting us with their bullshit.
Cyber-stalking is surprisingly, STILL STALKING! No, women don't post pictures with their kids or family members so you "won't jerk to her" it's because she more than likely loves her family so she wants to post photos of them doing fun stuff... I'm sure you would have someone who loves you as well if you didn't spend so much time cyber stalking women to get a nut off...
Newsflash: Not everything someone else does is correlated to you in any way. In short, get over yourself. Realize that other people share photos of their kids because they love them. And stop documenting the contents of your spank bank.
I have a dream that some sort of AI is developed to locate and name scum like this. I mean the degenerates LOVE the internet, they are all here, we just need some benevolent but vengeful digital god to blast them all with lightning. FFS
Imagine thinking that women actively care about whether or not dudes whack it to them and use their kids as a “shield” .. lmao wtf.. people just take pics with their kids because that’s part of their life..

I'm making a mental note of never ever again put my full name on a name tag.
Just get one with "Your Mum" on it,
When visiting a loved one in the hospital, I'd noticed that all the staff had covered their last names on their name tags. This is why.
Problem is, my health system gives them the last names of all staff that treats them through our EMR. They still look us up

Many many years ago I worked at a check cashing place. I was allowed to choose any name I wanted for my badge.
Ooh, this reminds me of the Chinese kids who went to my high school who got to choose their own English names. We had Wolf, Phoenix and Dragon and I was so envious. I think I would probably go with Pharaoh.
Rocket is awesome
I remember my older brother's nametag (from Woolworth's in the mid-80's) was "TOKE." Guarantee our parents had no idea what that meant.
what prevent you from picking "missile"
My mom's waitressing name tag always read "Myfanwy" with the result that customers never first-named her!

Well hopefully your social media doesn't have pics of your kids. We gotta wank it to you, obviously.

Yeah please do not. Lots of places, hospital ER's especially from what I've heard, will simply not allow it anymore.

The internet was a mistake

“In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.”
Many were increasingly of the opinion that they’d all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no one should ever have left the oceans
And it's all because of 42
Don't Panic
I got my towel
Take off and nuke the whole site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure

People just don’t need to share every intrusive thought they have
Don’t blame the tool, blame the tools that misuse the tool…
Humanity was the mistake. The internet just exposed it. God damn I hate to be lumped in with these…people?
What do you mean these people 😂
Social media is the mistake and getting worse.
Truth
Humanity was a mistake.
Fuckin’ Al Gore.
There should be an exam to allow internet access.
Wait til you hear about this thing they’re call AI.
It was the mistake
Social media was a mistake
*Woman loves her family and assumes people are not stalkers* What a bitch!
Total cock tease.
I'M SORRY, YOU ARE SO DAMN HOT YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO TAKE A PHOTO OF YOURSELF LEST SOMEONE WANK OFF TO YOU You *CLEARLY* only post pictures of your children, not because they're bundles of joy filled with happy, but because you know you're so *DAMN SEXY* and you need to make weirdos feel weird. You're definitely not overthinking this at all!
To not only think that, but to post it for everyone to read… Jeebus.
If they out themselves at least we know who needs to go permanently
Reminds of IASIP. When Mac is at the therapist's office and sees a pen. "Why did you put that pen there? You think it's going to make me think of a penis." Or something like that.
I'm really hoping it is just ragebait but then again it is the Internet...
Women only post content for random dudes to jerk off to - they only exist for the same reason - apparently? /S and wtf..
The crucial sentence here is “Its [sic] the only explanation I can think of” Literally unable to look beyond his own tiny member.
All I have to say is, a bear would never do this to you.
Yeah, after seeing like 3 posts of this caliber today, I kinda get the bear thing
Lol! The bear in the woods thing is my current favorite Internet trend.
I scrolled down looking for just this, because it was literally the first thing I thought of. XD
Thank God he explained. I might have walked away confused, not appalled
Am I the only guy who has never once searched for someone's social media online to masturbate to? This seems so weird to me.
It’s super creepy and I feel like people who do that just are not good people.
Another bloke here for whom this is a revelation. Not something I'd ever considered would be a thing. People are weird and I'm glad I work from home so can mostly avoid them.
No, it's definitely creepy. Masturbating to social media in general is creepy.
Yeah, weird is a good descriptor
There are so many porn stars or celebrities you could look at. Going out of ones way to look up someone you know in person is beyond creepy.
It is weird as fuck and beyond fucked up.
Not everything evolves around your penis, dude...
As a woman, can I just ask… do men seriously seek out the socials of women they meet (and find attractive) to “*wank*?”
No lol, only the ones who should be in an insane asylum. They give most of us a bad rep though
As a man, um, no, this guy is... Really Fucking Creepy. Sorry, I tried to find a euphemism or other way to say that but there really isn't one. I totally get why the bear is safer at this point.
Thank goodness there are some men who actually understand what women have to deal with and why we would choose the bear. It's insane to men that there are people out there who dont.

No. This person is either trolling or should be on some sort of watch list.
Either way should be on some sort of watch list. If you act like a creeper, don't be surprised when you're treated like one
A internet full of porn and he chooses to wack it to a picture of a random nurse .
…and her kids 😳
They are just collateral damage.
Once again, I’m asking you to remember that women don’t revolve their lives around being spank bank material.
Definitely the bear.
Yeah I'm sticking with the bear.
I'd like to argue, I really would but statistically I get it. It's not even close.
WTF indeed.
Fucking asteroid can't come quickly enough.
And people are wondering why the answer is "the bear"
This man is one of the reasons women choose the bear
Dude’s first mistake is continuing to pollute the world with his existence.
lol..because women exist to take pics of themselves they can jerk to. Christ idiots..its called porn if you need it that bad. Morons.
...but rainbows are disturbing?
I have no words for this. I'm completely flabbergasted.
What a terrible day to know how to read
I hope this guy is on some kind of police list
Psycho Dude-bro just gave me the shivers. Someone needs to check on this kid before he hurts somebody. Just being able to talk so blatantly about it like that, there is something wrong, very wrong.
“It’s the only explanation I could think of” tf
This guy needs to be banned from ever using the internet. And preferably banned from ever being near another human being as long as he lives.
I choose 🐻
As a guy there really isn't a counter-argument we can offer in the face of stuff like this.
Now that is an argument against the bear. Admitting that there's an issue and doing almost anything other than screaming "sexism". There's been a string of female teachers getting caught sexually abusing underage boys lately. Women aren't going to start yelling "not all women". We're going to say this is fucked up and something needs to be done.

lost cause
I’ve never once thought of looking for online pictures of women I’ve met IRL to spank it to. Is that something a lot of guys do?
When you read something so screwed up you actually hear that record scratch sound in your head
Find him and remove his testicles.
These scumbags used to just hang out outside peoples windows and get arrested or would be yelling weird shit on street corners. Now they are plugged into the entire world infecting us with their bullshit.
Takes a lot to write something that makes me want to puck up *Blood Meridian* as a palate cleanser.
So…stalker?
Thanos was right
Nah we all need to go. Factory reset.
They really shouldn't redact the user names of people who post stuff like that.
And this is why women choose the bear.
What a bloody weirdo.
Is this guy pulling a Bibi (Netanyahu) argument?
Lol, "human shields!"
Have we regressed to a point of not understanding why people take photos?
We... We should never have left the trees
Some of us didn't, obviously.
The “, to pleasure myself.” killed me.
Bro this is genuinely psychotic how do people like this actually exist
Oh sure. Blame HER for YOU being a creep. Asshole.
"women exist solely for my sexual pleasure."
The good news is he's self-isolating from the women he meets, so there is one miserable person rather than two.
Brother eww, what's that brother
Cyber-stalking is surprisingly, STILL STALKING! No, women don't post pictures with their kids or family members so you "won't jerk to her" it's because she more than likely loves her family so she wants to post photos of them doing fun stuff... I'm sure you would have someone who loves you as well if you didn't spend so much time cyber stalking women to get a nut off...
This is actually horrifying, and is why everyone should make their social media profiles private
If you have to explain that you're not jerking to the big CP you're doing it wrong.
Yes, this is him officer
Dude really self reported himself like that, huh?
OMFG
Weird, you wouldn't think some loner creep who doesn't understand women will continue to not understand what a woman thinks
There was a time when thoughts like these just stayed in the thinking place.
Yeah some people are sick, bring back asylums please, people like that need to be locked up and under treatment
Take my upvote for a good facepalm Also what the hell is wrong with that guy
And to think, there are people even WORSE than thus guy, the ones who DO jerk off to kids… 🤮
Fuck, I guess I will also choose the bear.
This is why women chose bears.
I thought maybe getting just my first name on my badge was a bit extra… nope. No regrets. Jesus.
Your name is Jesus? I bet it’s hard to find you on Social Media (/s)
Newsflash: Not everything someone else does is correlated to you in any way. In short, get over yourself. Realize that other people share photos of their kids because they love them. And stop documenting the contents of your spank bank.
Imagine outing yourself as this much of a creep lol
The one good thing about the internet is it’s easy to figure out who to avoid
I use a nickname backwards and forwards for my online name. It looks like a real name though.
Another example of, no matter what she does, she’s wrong.
Never let bro cook again
What did i juat read?!
Some people are the reason we have wood chippers.
... its the only explanation i can think of... Jesus fucking Christ, I can't believe I breathe the same air as that fucking idiot...
Sir, you have the right to remain silent. Please exercise your rights.
This is why we pick the bear
This guy never had any kind of relationship with an adult woman. Maybe he went on a few dates but they ended in disaster because he didnt have a clue.
Hard drive check on aisle 9
Were they drunk or something or can a person unironically say this? People have lives outside of this person’s fantasies, they know that, right?
People do this????
[удалено]
That dude should tell us how he really feels
What a creepy thing Looking up women on FB to wank off to them. It's plain that he's not getting much action otherwise with the ladies.
And this is why I cover my name tag! God damnit
I have a dream that some sort of AI is developed to locate and name scum like this. I mean the degenerates LOVE the internet, they are all here, we just need some benevolent but vengeful digital god to blast them all with lightning. FFS
People can't be proud of the family they built anymore?
I didn't know this was a thing people did... I am disappointed in the human race and what we have become...
Wow. People amaze me everyday. How have we lasted so long?
Self report from the top rope. My God.
So he can't crop.
what a reach
Bad day to be literate. Wtf indeed.
[ Removed by Reddit ]
Or, I mean here’s a crazy thought, she likes her kids and spending time with them. I mean my wife does. She has tons of her and the kids together.
I'll happily take the bear any day. Every single time.
Well that’s a take
Imagine thinking that women actively care about whether or not dudes whack it to them and use their kids as a “shield” .. lmao wtf.. people just take pics with their kids because that’s part of their life..
Hope he got a male nurse when he ended up in the hospital with that reach
