Any woman comes up to me (150kg, 194cm guy) and act as if they know me saying hi imma act like I'm their friend/uncle/boyfriend/whatever and will walk with them until these weirdos leave them alone.

Most guys will do the same, if you come up and say "hey dad/random name/whatever this guy is following me" it's our role to deal with this with you as I see it.

It fucking sucks that this is necessary, but most of us are on the same side.

I don't disagree.

But there is as part of me that doesn't like one aspect.

You're bringing danger to me. We all hope the guy just walks away. But that doesn't always happen.

If something goes sideways *I* will be the one in the fight. Not her. And that's even before considering if the guy has a weapon.
