    My observation is that this stuff is mostly in the media and popular culture, go out into the real world and everything is quite normal. I'm going to start ignoring all the online noise about it - until I get profiled for mandatory diversity training or discriminated against for having 'white male privelidge' I'm going to start letting it go.

    Smell those roses - they want to be smelt fellas - they live for it

      Surely in the early stages of getting to know someone you are 'cold calling'

      Or are you suppose to follow the object of your intentions around being their friend until what you trip, fall over and land in her pussy/on his duck?

          Just because you don't get them doesn't mean it doesn't happen

                I like that, it would make a great name for a pub snack.

                      I can imagine the outrage in the shire pubs if they were ever rebranded.
