Even Bev?

I blame romance movies and novels and such. It's such utter bullshit, how the stereotypical storyline is that she rejects him at first and then he's just really ~~desperate~~ persistent and then she eventually softens up and they're married ever after.

Some women like that little dance of rejecting and the guy not giving up, but even then only if they think you're cute beforehand.
But most women will just find that creepy and off-putting. They want to have a partner they actually find attractive themselves, not just any partner who finds them attractive enough to persist through humiliation.

Instructions unclear. Fucked a vending machine.

I will fuck the vending machine 🙏 thx

It's a bit of an overgeneralization to act like men are sex-obsessed and view relationships as a transaction where they can purchase sex by being nice.

It's human to want love and care, but so many people view men as only wanting sex, so if a man complains about being lonely, isolated, or being unloved, it seems like everyone jumps to the conclusion that he's only talking about sex. Then they scorn him, reinforcing the pattern of loneliness and building the sense of frustration and being a victim of ostracization.

Likewise, if a man is kind to a woman he'll generally be regarded with suspicion, like "what are you trying to get out of this?" Some people just value kindness and try to be nice for the sake of being nice; but if it lands them with accusations and scorn then it'll only go on so long before they stop. And then people will scorn them either for being rude to women or snubbing them. It seems it's impossible to be a man in the vicinity of women without opening oneself to being labeled as a misogynist, no matter what you do.

The reality is that men are also conscious and complex human beings, and depicting them as these simple and one-dimensional sex pests isn't really moving the dialogue forward. All it does is give women a temporary feeling of moral superiority which they then chase like any other addiction.

this does also count for vending machine with human soul, right?

I don't think it's dumbed down enough. Where do I put the money, again?

If you're just after sex and can't get any via casual hook ups from bars / dating apps / fetish groups then just pay a consenting adult for sex.

If you're after genuine human connection and a relationship then you should work on yourself to be someone you'd like to be in a relationship with.

The Oblivion persuasion wheel did not adequately prepare me for actual relationships.

Nah I think it's a pretty simple algorithm still: don't be weirder than you are attractive. It's just that there's really wildly varying ideas on what's weird or attractive.

What if I just want a small bag of pretzels that are overly priced, and likely stale? Can I still have sex with the vending machine to get those?

you can program anybody to like you, just because we're complex beings doesn't mean we don't have consistent behavioural traits

Whats up with these new accounts posting so much with 0 comments? I hope this wont delete itself.

The comic lands because it’s really about basic respect and communication, not “rules.” Simple ideas, but easy to forget.

OP this isn't going to help you get laid.
