That will work too.
Men needing help need to ask a man not a woman alone.
There is no reason to approach a lone woman w/ a need.
Too many telephones & willing men to help a lagitamate need.
Tell her GOOD JOB.

Starting several yrs ago I began teaching Mom & Wife that it is alright to be rude to men that approach ladies on a parking lot.
Wed evening we were headed to church & she says, Well, what you taught me paid off yesterday evening.
OK what paid off.
Early afternoon she left the Brookshire Brothers store in the "good part of town" & being observant she saw that the parking space by her car was empty & the next one had a car w/ a man sitting in it.
As she put her groceries in the trunk he steps out & says Lady, can I ask you a question.
Mom - LOUDLY, No I dont know you & we have nothing to talk about.
Man - Well I just need a couple of $s for some gas. (that would be enough to get him all the way to the loop at todays prices.)
Mom - LOUDLY I dont have any money for you, go ask a man for help.
She put the trunk down & went back inside to report it & several in the parking lot are watching now.
Was she armed? You bet. Can she shoot? 247 last renewal.
Was she able to confidently tend to an unwanted panhandler? Yep.
She, 76yr old widow woman, went home & went to sleep comfortable & never said to herself, "I cant believe I let him have that money."
Ladies, awareness & verbal assertiveness are the tools God will use to make some things not happen.
