    This is the same energy as a creepy man telling a lesbian woman “you never had a dick like mine before”.

    It’s creepy and predatory behaviour.

      The text by itself, sure. Combined with the image and the community, no. Take into account that girl A claims that she is straight but also clearly seems interested in girl B and that this is a shitpost, so it’s not meant to be taken literally.

      Woman to woman is not nearly as threatening, this isn’t in the same ballpark emotionally.

      EDIT: You folks are so autistic I sometimes want to give up this place. I would if there was somewhere as smart with normal social skills.

      You understand there are wildly varying levels of “inappropriate”? Oh FFS, I’ll spell it out.

      A man approaching a lesbian like this, “I can fuck you straight!”

      A lesbian approaching a cis woman, “Bet you’d like it!”

      Do I need to write a dissertation on the difference in literal and emotional threat level?

        As a lesbian, yeah nah. Sure men are much more likely to be able to overpower me, but I’ve been sexually violated by women. And regardless it’s creep shit to insist upon someone who doesn’t want tou

          I’m only pointing out that the threat level isn’t even close. Are you saying it is? Of course you’re not, but FFS it’s not in the same ballpark.

          If I came on you and said I could “straighten” you out with my penis, that’s a threat (at least it is in my book). If a lesbian approaches another woman and says, WHATEVER THE FUCK SHE SAYS. Are we going to pretend these two situations are even close?!

          No wonder kids don’t get laid until they’re 28, everyone afraid of making a comment that gets taken wrong. I cannot imagine how many times I missed out by not wanting to be “that guy”. Many women later chastised me for not being more forward! “Why didn’t you hit on me?” 🫨

          BTW, the original post is a “joke”.

            How odd that one paragraph later you’re criticizing others for not being able to recognize a joke.

        oh hell yea. Multi line edit doubling down on the downvotes.

        I mean, at first, everyone just thought you were just a little wrong/redflaggy. But now, definitely, everyone is going to read that edit and think “hmmm this seems like a reasonable and respectable person that I should take seriously”. lmao.

        I just want to point out that saying something has the same energy doesn’t imply that it is the same thing in intensity. In fact, often we are hyperbolic to highlight the kind of energy that we are talking about.

        The reason why you are getting down voted is also not because of your opinion that these things are different, in intensity or whatever, but because it feels like you really want to make that difference. Why do you care so much about that difference? Why are you defending bad behaviour from being compared to other bad behaviour? Why do you care? Most of people that you called autistic (in a prejorative manner), understand that as you trying to justify that behavior, and the answer to the question of “why would they” is that they understand you as such a person. A person who is acting in a way and is trying to excuse it.

        Of course, I don’t claim such a thing but I thought, I would help you to understand this social event in your life, as these can be difficult to understand for some people, e.g. autistic people. I am proud of all the autistic people in this community who understood this interaction, good job! I know it might wasn’t easy for you.
