"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Should X-mas classic "Baby It's Cold Outside" be shamed for glorifying date rape?

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

That lady narrating that video is absolutely obnoxious, as is that guy who comes on around the 0:24 mark and says "That's just how people talked back then. It's a sign of the times". They really expect me to care about stuff like this?

The girl in the song wants to stay anyway, as can be seen by the line "At least I'm going to say I tried". She just wants to put up some last minute resistance to protect her reputation. I'm surprised the feminists aren't just as upset by the idea that it's a negative thing that a woman be seen as slvtty.

The more I think about this, the more it ticks me off.

The person in the song is trying to persuade the other to stay. As they even mentioned in the video, there's no specific gender written in the song.
There's no force involved. There isn't even any direct indication of sex, or physical contact of any kind. But they are trying to say the song is "date rape-y". So now just trying to talk a girl into staying with you is considered criminal? Why don't they just make any sort of interaction between the genders illegal and be done with it?
