I often wonder how much slut shaming has to do with women who expect/want this sort of behavior from men. Does it make them feel like they aren’t “responsible” for the sexual encounter if the guy is pushy, therefore they aren’t a slut?
this is 99% of it. It's about plausible deniability if things don't go well. it's all about pushing all the responsibility onto the man.
When have you ever met a woman admit to being bad at sex?
these women don't care about that. they are operating on a toddler level of wanting what they want and throwing a tantrum if they don't get it.
communication is not something they have developed yet.
Teenagers will spend a lot of time wooing the person they want. Middle-aged people have no time and will simply move on to the next person who’s not playing games.
Bingo. Adults have no time for stupid games. Kids do.
nobody is going to make a top end phone without a good camera. that's not how product design works.
there are tons of $50 smart phones out there these days.
expensive coffee. i spend like $60/mo on coffee beans.
a lot of software dev people are incredibly naive when it comes to how human beings interact and behave.
their biggest mistake is often they assume other people are chill nerds like they are...
i already have had multiple weirdos harass me on lemmy for not being leftist enough. i've blocked dozens now, and really kills the experience to have some crazy people go around and brigading your comments because you disagree with their political viewpoint slightly.
way too many people take the internet comments/points WAY too seriously...
you can't build a successful relationship without dating and getting to know if you're a good fit.
yeah, been there too. i could never understand someone who refuses treatment/therapy/medication and then blames someone else for their struggles.
nah it's multiple dates. it's also a common attitude that men need to 'impress' dates by spending a lot at restaurants otherwise they 'devalue' a woman. asking someone out on a cheap date to get to know them isn't the point... the point is to win them over by spending money on them.
basically a lot of people see dating as prostitution with extra steps. and wonder why they are single.
I understand it. They think respect and consent is weak and pathetic. They want 'strong' people who violate others boundaries.
