Yeah, you're probably right . But she'll no doubt drive a lot of potential partners away with her superiority and hectoring tone. Even horny guys don't want to be lectured to from on high the way she does. They can probably find another female person to fuck.

Thanks for removing your comment with the ugly, shitty, anti-woman saying. But please repost without that part. Coz your central point - that as a male you can confirm that even het guys who are hot to have sex with women will be repelled by the author's tone and 'tude - was of merit.

There seems to be a widespread assumption amongst some (especially young?) women today that het guys are all so horny and pathetically and desperately needy of sex with women that they'll put up with just about anything for the chance to get some action with a female person. This might be true of some segment of the het male population, such as incels and sex addicts, but I don't believe it to be true for the majority of men.

Most men - like most women - don't see the sort of preachy finger-wagging that the author of this article displays as a sexual turn-on or an appealing quality in any other way. Most people in their right minds would not want to sit through a lunch with a person who has such an insufferably superior, condescending attitude towards others as this writer displays. And very few of any inclination or identity are gonna want to jump in the sack and shag him/her/they/zir/xe!

Fair enough. For the record, I can be an asshole as often as not (especially on the internet). But in person when I'm not being a dick, I actually want to hang around with people who aren't being dicks as well. I think that generally goes for most of humanity, and at least for the other guys I know well, we are actually discerning with who we want to consider sleeping with; i.e. someone who we at least feel we can share some sort of common ground with that'll spark an emotional connection. I know very few guys who fit the stereotype of collecting notches on the headboard. They are out there, but I think even in this case, the "players" would probably look elsewhere to women who don't require you to read an instructional pamphlet about their pronouns before going forward.

I agree. Also, in my long life I've learnt that a sense of humor, including the ability to laugh at one's self, is one of the traits most people of both sexes regard as a most desirable characteristic in a sexual partner, whether it be just for hooking up or for a more meaningful relationship.

Oh yes. Nothing's worse than being in a relationship where you're penalized for having a laugh.
