Bilsart presents Zeyno Pekünlü’s online exhibition and online artist talk entitled “How to Properly Touch a Girl so You Don’t Creep Her Out?” between May 20-30
On Wednesday, May 20, Zeyno Pekünlü’s video work entitled “How to Properly Touch a Girl so You Don’t Creep Her Out?” will be streamed on Bilsart Youtube Channel and our website bilsart.com.

The videos used in the video ‘’How to properly touch a girl so you don’t creep her out?’’ are the first videos that YouTube search engine suggests when “How to pick-up a girl?” question is typed. Life coaches and PUA’s (Pick-up Artists) share their “knowledge” on YouTube channels accessible to and free for everyone around the following questions: What do women want? How to attract women? How to ask their telephone numbers? How to “isolate” them in order to convince them going home with you? How to touch a woman without creeping her out?

While self-proclaimed life coaches, shady experts and PUAs give details of picking up women, new and popular mediums of masculine expression come forward.
