"Ask for Angela" service to help Australian women ditch creepy dates

Women who feel unsafe in Sydney can now use a codeword to protect themselves
OK, that's nice for the ladies but what about the guys that have an ugly porker they need to get clear of?
quote:
WOMEN who fear they might fall victim to sexual assaults and unwanted propositions have been given a new weapon to defend themselves while on a night out. From this weekend, women feeling uncomfortable on their date just have to ask staff for “Angela” at almost any bar pub, bar, hotel or nightclub Sydney and the trained professionals will leap into action. Staff across the city have been trained to either lead the person who asked for help discreetly out of the premises so they can escape or take the complainant to a safe space within the venue — such as a kitchen or staffroom. Bar staff have also been trained to ensure the person who complained has a safe option to get home, by either calling a loved one, ordering a cab or calling police if the situation becomes too heated.
quote:
“We’d seen that a few individual pubs around the country had done similar messages at the bar saying that if people’s dates weren’t going well the bar staff would help and call them a cab,” she said in a statement. “We wanted to do this in a more organised way.” She added the popularity of dating apps like Tinder meant more people might find themselves in difficult situations, adding that “feedback suggests having the scheme in place makes people feel safer”.

So this will just be a way for a woman to get out of a date she doesn’t want to frick. Got it.

What happens when there is an angela that works at the bar? Threesome?

So how many men are going to volunteer to pay the bill knowing there's a chance she leaves right after dinner?

I thought the safeword was Fluggaenkoecchicebolsen

Does it address what happens when the guy refuses to pay for her part of the bill?

This seems pointless. It's being announced in a PSA, so how is it any better or more discrete than, "Hey, this guy I'm with is creeping me out. Can you get me out of here?"

They have these set up to help men, too....so it's not just women.
If a guy is struggling and needs help sealing the deal, he goes to the bar and asks for "Coach" to get some advice from a pick up artist
If a guy is sealing the deal, but is worried about performance anxiety, he goes to the bar and asks for "Woody", and the bartender will make your next drink half peptides.

What if your name is Angela, and you just want to introduce yourself to the bartender?
Posted on 7/13/18 at 8:02 pm to TrueTiger
I think his might have the unintended consequence of women being immediately beaten as soon as they ask for Angela.

or what if you are a dude at the bar waiting for a hottie to say the codeword and then tell her that you are her help out and take her out back and get her into your car?

I think you mean what if you are a bartender named Angela that people may ask for

Staff will also be stocking peanut butter and People magazines to buy time for an escape. Ask for ‘Beluga’.

So what about all the employees named Angela?

I like how we put sexual assault and “unwanted situations” aka bad dates in equitable standing.
This is the shite that the “regret means rape” culture builds upon.

Good. This feminist shite is out of control.

You sexist pig. We, like, totally live in a rape culture. Let me wear a pussy hat and flash my cooter on the internet.

Yeah, a person just randomly saying "Angela" or "Ask for Angela" in the middle of a conversation won't raise any flags at all. Very subtle.
ETA: And wow, they just might be going too far with this
