I like to watch interviews of people from the mid 20th century and before. I've seen many of them.
The sheer number of romances, marriages etc that came from what would now be shamed or outright criminalised is crazy.
Men who persistently asked out women over months or years, turned up to their homes, pretended to bump into them, kept going to the same places in the hope they'd see them again - all kinds of crazy things, recounted by those same women, their wives, as they smirk to the interviewer about how persistent their husband was.
Even where people weren't interested, they had the manners and grace to politely decline and leave it at that. Now it's an opportunity to play the victim.
Within a decade, 50% of 40 year old women will be childless in the west and a culture that criminalises male effort (an intrinsically messy and awkward affair) is a big part of that.
Have fun with your cats I guess.
So because I got an oil change you think it’s ok to save my phone number to text me? This is beyond creepy… I’ll be reporting this.
