Those are crutches for people who are insecure about their victim status. Real VictimsTM don't need to play the part.

HEARTILY seconded!

For man-hair alone, this is clearly the winner.

More egalitarian, as well.

Weirdly enough, we don't see gender hierarchy as being necessary at all. Sounds like you're projecting.

It's pretty telling that one group (ahem) is threatened by the empowerment of another group because they think it can only result in their own dis-empowerment. As if it's natural law. Hierarchical thinking — is it hard-wired?

There's that... http://wehuntedthemammoth.com/

I hadn't thought of it that way. I've never been that bold, even when I was a kid (although I knew other girls that were). To me no attention was preferable to negative attention, so it's hard for me to relate.

It's a skill, for sure. I think certain guys who are not necessarily all that confident but just nice all around, and will give roughly equal attention to men, women and people they don't want to fuck, that seem the safest. "Safe" is actually catnip for certain kinds of girls. I know guys like this who were kinda…

I'm just mystified that this is a worthwhile pursuit. I can't imagine they'd find an attractive or sane person responding to that. I guess they don't have standards is the point.

Yeah, there was a Jezebel/Roygbiv article awhile back that talked about it and I just can't find it now.

Talking is fine, but like someone said upthread, that particular strategy may not work so well on pretty girls because they get told that all the time. They are tired of that being the only thing people notice about them. It's the average-looking and less-than-pretty who are more likely to appreciate that particular…

The same problem, actually! There was an article about Dattch where women were generally treated respectfully by the other women, but there were still unwanted male suitors flooding it.

I don't tend to be attracted to/aroused by a man once I've been rudely rebuffed by him. It kinda breaks the spell.

Does it really? How many desirable results do you get that could possibly make it worth that much work? I'm thinking 100 is kind of on the low side for # of misses per hit.

You could try starting a convo the same way you would anyone else. Joke about something. Make a clever observation. Ask her /tell her something interesting about the venue. Making small talk is a lost art apparently, but at least it doesn't have to immediately be concerned with your appraisal of her appearance.

Or how about do what bars do. No cover/free drinks for ladies. (In other words, men should be the ones supporting the service if they are going to be using it for their personal glory hole)

The point is it's not the appropriate forum to propose casual sex. THERE ARE PLENTY OF SITES AND CATEGORIES OF SITES THAT EXIST FOR THAT. Leave the people who are looking for authentic connections alone!!!!

It's like getting tons of spam intsead of personal emails. It's discouraging because out of 200 responses, all of the are junk except 2, which doesn't feel like that many choices. It's why I don't date online. If the ratio of sex propositions to sincere inquiries is 100,000:1, I'd really rather try my luck in person.

I don't believe this person. Yeah, you can say I am looking for long-term soul-mate, serious inquiries only, I am not going to have sex with you, and you will STILL get plenty of fuck offers.
