Depends how you go about it, sometimes it’s still totally fine. Like me in a foreign country lost/not knowing where my destination is. I see an attractive girl, walk up to her and ask for help etc
That being said, whilst the metoo movement has been exceptional regarding helping women speak out (this is fantastic) it’s also gone slightly too far in which (this is my opinion, one of my only right wing stances) there has been a witch-hunt directed towards men over the slightest amount of misconduct “HEY, he touched my ass when he was twelve… what a piece of shit” and such revelations have made dating slightly trickier, it’s harder to flirt, we… or at least I… don’t know what is or isn’t acceptable conduct anymore.
Yes, it’s pretty obvious “don’t coerce people into sex, don’t grope random women etc”… but now I’m stuck wondering “well when do we make the first move”? “how do we flirt now?”
That being said, it’s a small price to pay when compared to all the creepy shit that (some) men used to pull
