(10,885 posts)It is possible that as you claim: in the social circumstance, a victim did not want to make a scene and was able to act their way through it.
But it is also possible that they went through the motions without as joyful an expression - which gets them through the situation but you can see something in their expression. And it's also possible they slap him in the face.
I'm not seeing solid evidence of either of the latter two in any of these 7 encounters. When there are that many, it is not misogynistic to note it. Different people can react differently. The more incidents without any deviation in reaction, the less likely it's really happening. Again, that is not a misogynistic conclusion - it's closer to being based on probability and statistics - some reasoning.
