ROFL If someone did that to me on a date, I’d be out the door too! A date should be a little bit getting to know you/flirty. If you’re after a piece of ass…There are apps for that. 🫢

Why would anyone bring up sexy stuff on the first date without very clear signs of interest?

Unfortunately, based on the stories my female friends and co-workers share about the audacity of straight men who’ve felt entitled to sex after paying for dinner…It’s a common issue that women experience in the dating scene. Very often the women who told these stories are cautious and aren’t too forward, given they are concerned by sending the wrong message. Yet, it wasn’t uncommon for the subject to come up, that often was a date ender.

Personally, as a gay man, it didn’t happen much because Grindr is where most go if they want a hookup.

Fair enough. You gotta admire the chops on that guy for trying. 😏

ROFL If he were handsome, I’d probably be mildly amused but still shut him down.

Could you clarify what you mean sexist in response to my comment? I want to be sure we’re on the same page before replying.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Well that his being handsome is ameliorating the situation, somehow.

Maybe not sexist per se, buy it's not entirely fair in a way. The brazenness of the expression is unchanged, and that people get a free pass due to their looks is sending the wrong message.

Oh, no dude gets away with handsome pass, I still shut them down regardless! I’m only amused, because a handsome dude should not have trouble getting action if he’s suave.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I see. Misunderstood that, it's quite clear in re reading.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

It’s fine! Misunderstandings happen, I’m just as guilty of misunderstanding as anyone else. 🫢
