A good response in Slate:

The more subtle point is that when a man doesn’t feel empowered to approach, everything he says is tinged with anger. Instead of de-sexualizing men, why doesn’t society teach them how to meet women in public in a way that is not threatening to women? There must be something we can all agree a man is allowed to do to express interest in a woman in public. I bet you that at least some of the videos that were not included in this compilation showed men doing just that.
