Quoting the image in the original post, apparently made by a person with a woman's picture as their avatar:

Do you notice that men are no longer persuasive? Once they ask you out on a date and you say No. That's it 😑

This implies she wants men to continue persuing her after she's said no. This is not a unique sentiment from women; I have seen many women making Tiktok videos saying basically this. "Why aren't men approaching women anymore?" "Where have all the men gone?" "Why am I not being asked out?" "Why did he take me seriously when I said no?" Why do you think they're like this?

I specifically said this isn't the first or only time I've seen this sentiment expressed so I'm not extrapolating from a sample size of one, you are a dishonest person, and
You're not the only person this hour to pull this "AHA! You said 'women', plural, which means nothing you ever say can be correct, QED" bullshit. Do they teach that in gender studies class or something?

What a weird thing to say.

It makes sense you'd have to ask what they teach in a gender studies class. You definitely strike me as someone who hasn't seen a college campus. Too many women there, right? And as the queen pickme, you'd feel too inadequate.

I went to college for five years majoring in Aeronautics and Aviation Maintenance. We had actual things to study.

You actually can't comment on whether Gender studies is a worthwhile subject, because you've never taken it. It's like your opinion on nuclear engineering - laughable, unfounded. And btw, at my engineering college, we all were required to take Gender studies because it is worthwhile, and literal 18 year olds did better understanding these basic concepts than you.

Extrapolating from recent Boeing stories, aeronautics and aviation maintenance majors aren't even very good at aeronautics and aviation maintenance, so what value can they add to any other conversations?
