• Hell, even “are you down…” isn’t bad. Suggested finishers:

      • …to get coffee?
      • …for a movie night?
      • …for lunch/dinner?
      • …to hang out and chat at the park?
      • …to meet at the library for a quick game of Cones of Dunshire?

      Basically anything but that.

      I think the best part is that he asked almost like he was making a doctor’s appointment lol “are you available at 3pm on Thursday for some dehumanizing unprotected sex with a smelly neckbeard? No? Would Friday work better?”

        It’s called tact. Maybe even basic social interaction. Also “to get barebacked”? How is that supposed to be appealing?

        Hey, guess what. I like girls, but if an attractive girl comes up to me and says, “want me to shove my clam in your face?” my answer is going to be “what the fuck is wrong with you.”

          You see, if women were actually interested in men, that wouldn’t be a thing. Apparently 80% of them are not. If a girl comes asking me for the throne like that, it’s gonna depend on the girl. Looks clean and healthy? Aww yeah, I’m not busy! Maybe I’ll call for an STD test with that kind of attitude.

            Not everyone is that pathetic. Most of us actually want to interact with people and find out what they’re like before fucking them.

              That only makes sense if you’re trying to have kids. Doesn’t matter for just sex. I would definitely recommend at least making sure they’re not the condom sabotage type. There’s nothing pathetic about casual sex. That mentality comes from jealousy. Go enjoy what you like. It doesn’t have to be that deep.

            Incel pretty much already means that.

            Cringe moment is that when I was like 16 or 17, I too, identified with being an incel - I mean, I WAS INvoluntarily CELibate. So I browsed their subreddit for a while.

            I quickly realized that those were guys who were not just involuntarily celibate. They all hated women.

              What’s the implication here? They’re an incel because they hate women or they hate women because they’re an incel?

                The first one. There are a few exceptions, but overwhelmingly, incels are dudes who act like they are owed sex and call women “females” and then are surprised when none want to sleep with them

                  For one thing, there are plenty of female incels. For another, every male incel I’ve met does not hate women. I game online and have quite a few of them for friends. I think that conflating ‘incel’ and ‘hates women’ is morally repugnant.

                  The English language actually has the perfect word for what you want to say, and that’s ‘mysogynist’. Use your words correctly.

    I don’t understand why a nice young man who uses “femoid” as a word can’t get a girlfriend. One of life’s little mysteries!

    Could in theory be saved later by “Sorry, this message was inappropriate, if it’s any excuse I was drunk when I sent it.” If feeling confident, could be followed by “The part about having a crush on you was true tho.”.

    The class clown kid from my high school (looked like a clown too) ended up with a smoking hot wife, seemingly way out of his league.

    Around high school I can remember him asking and being rejected by just about every girl.

    Only reason I can think of is he got so used to rejection that he was completely unphased to keep going and the numbers game eventually worked out for him.

    Good on him and a lesson for the rest of us, lol.
