GENERALLY people offering to 'buy' tiny thing - one mint, one fag etc are going through the motions and expecting to get it for free. hth

Some do. Some genuinely don't like the idea of owing someone, no matter how small the favour and non-requirement of the kindness being repaid.

She did seem very genuine in wanting to give me 20p towards 5p worth of M&S mint.

20p? that's nothing. i once got 50p for one refresher.

I got £3 for a half used 40p glowstick (bought in bulk off the net) in the Ministry of Sound on Saturday.

Tbh I only accepted it to shut him up after his repeated requests for one and I'd already given out all my spares.

Then afterwards I wished is turned him down as one glowstick on its own just ain't the same as two.

Still the overpriced £3 bottle of water I bought with his coin went down a treat.
 
One glowstick is pretty shit tbf.



How did we get on to buying drinks? :confused: Anyway - I've accepted drinks off blokes after letting them know that it doesn't even mean we're going to have a conversation and they've been fine with it.

I was wondering how wtfftw had managed to communicate her acceptance of the proffered drink whilst simultaneously declining to have a conversation without, you know, actually having a conversation. I was thinking it must have all been managed by sign language. The last one might be a little obscure unless you're of a certain age, I'll grant you.
 
Woah steady on. He's got a point! For better or worse I do think men are more aggressive cos of testosterone. But actually it IS a bit shit to chuck that in their faces in a derogatory way.

I don't think slut is unisex in Leeds. Slut means prostitute up here. It means EVEN if a nice, normal woman dresses like a prostitute she STILL don't deserve to get raped.

pk I am literally pissing myself laughing at you. What the FUCK? :D

Excess testosterone makes people more aggressive yes. The word hysterical refers to the womb and PMT, but its still a unisex descriptor. Testerical, or complaints about excess testosterone, refer to inappropriately aggressive wankery spilling out because socialisation sometimes fails to curb some of these apish instincts.

I find it really fucking offensive to suggest that all women sleaze drinks off men or that all men are sleazy enough to play such stupid shallow games. And fucking frightening that some raise it as justification for sexual aggressiin towards women.

I covered up completely until I was 35 and happily married, because some men think it's OK to publicly insult women for not being good enough to be seen with and other men see fit to let them behave like that. It didn't stop me taking some very nice men to bed. But it did make me despise men who are so fucking insecure they have to act like that, and too fucking stupid to know that people fuck with their brains, not their bodies.

Which is why they'll always be a huge disappointment in bed. And they know it. Hence the unwarranted aggression.
 
Sleazing drinks off men ain't offensive. It's just a game. They know the rules, buy enough drinks and you may get a shag off one. If girls work it enough, they can get free drinks all night, and a shag if they're desperate or stupid :D

Past caring you probably not drinking down Yates or whatever other town bar. It's certain venues and shit clubs where everyone knows the score.

Just so it's clear I'm not cheap enough to do this now ;), this was when I first started drinking.
 
I don't accept drinks offered from strangers in bars, or accept a bottle if bar staff bring it over from 'that bloke over there' because that's some fucking loser's way in to think they can come over and my experience /understanding is you've got to put up with them talking to you for at least the duration of the drink. I see it generally as a very rough bartering system and I don't want to feel beholden (not sayign I WOULD be, but the idea is I should feel it), free drinks or not.

I'm feeling utterly vindicated in this by seeing some of the posts here, and I resolve there's no way in future I'm tolerating anything beyond 'can I buy you a drink luvverly lady' 'no you can fuck right off, you're one of those right weirdo blokes off Urban aren't you'

:cool:

:D

It's not offensive, just a bit cheap. :p

I'm just jealous really cos I couldn't do it and had to do with finishing abanded ones. :oops:

So that's your excuse?

I wouldn't use it as an excuse, no. But it probably is the reason I'm quite unnecessarily aggressive sometimes, yes. I usually apologise when I've caused inappropriate offence though. I think, anyway. I try to. Being an adult, and all.

I don't thinnk the sleazing drinks is offensive. If they're mug enough, why not?

It's the stereotyping of all women as doing this (and therefore any and all of us court and deserve the violent backlash) that I find offensive. It's not something I even recognise from my shagging days. No one sleazed for or bought drinks for random strangers, that I remember, and we went out a lot.

It's only offensive on those very rare occasions when the "lady" in question will react with aggressive bafflement upon me declining her request.
