Men's Group

gotten some pretty clear signals in the first place. Not just a nervous smile, I mean an actual conversation beforehand with a clear indication that there was chemistry and mutual interest.

And, believe it or not, I'm a fairly good read of people. So I don't think I would have been in this situation, ever.

That said, maybe the guy is a putz. Has bad person skills. Not real tuned in to body language. So, he asked her, and she said no. He put himself out there, and by all accounts when rejected he was fine with it, it was over.

So what does he get? He's eviscerated in public as being an example of the spooky male almost-rapist who sexualizes women and is constantly oppressionating with his bad space penis-power.

And from where I sit, he did nothing to deserve it. Maybe made a clumsy attempt to connect with someone he was attracted to, and got rejected.

So "Skepchick's" reaction, rather than saying "better luck next time", is to publicly burn him at the stake, and make a federal case out of it.
