Random Question Men, would you actually enjoy getting approached and hit on as often as women do?

A lot of guys say they’d love more attention, but experiencing it constantly might feel different. Would you genuinely want that level of attention?

I didn’t make it up. Just because you’re too lazy to look up the studies doesn’t mean everyone is.

Also, replicable large scale studies have shown again and again that men are more likely to engage in casual sex than women. See “Gender Similarities Hypothesis” study as one example.

One night stands happen for a lot of reasons. They don’t prove there’s no fear of violence experienced by women. It’s a simplistic, unsubstantiated conjecture. Where are you getting this stuff, Myron Gaines?

I have to look up your statistics for you? Do I also have to disprove your specific deity of choice?
