    So many, here’s what I could gather on top of my head…

    If you think you know that a woman is trans, you don’t.

    If you see a woman getting yelled at or intimidated, you get your phone out and start recording subtly and ask her if she’s ok.

    If you see a woman walking alone at night, ask her if you can accompany her and maybe share a cab.

    If you see a woman leaving the bar alone, keep an eye out for someone following her.

    If your friend is going on a first date, share location with each other and plan safety checks

    If a woman you know has lost weight don’t compliment her about it unless she brings it up in a positive manner.

    If a woman you know has gained weight, don’t talk about it Also don’t ever ask a woman when the baby is due unless she specifically told you she’s pregnant.

    If a woman looks tired, unless its your closest friend and it’s unusual, don’t bring it up.

    If a woman has any wardrobe or makeup malfunction, tell her subtly.

    If a woman has a hard time and vents to you, don’t try to upstage her or say you understand because you lived something that you think is related but it’s not.

    Don’t make her feel bad for her sex life ever.

    Don’t bad talk your friend’s partners UNLESS you have serious suspicions they’re cheating on them.

    Give confidence boosts whenever you can to woman around you.

      These are brilliant mate. I especially like the trans and weight ones… women are so tied up in their weight, it’s just such a difficult area for us.
