    Y’all are free to post your own picks in the replies. No judgement (probably).

    Not a fan of the negative tone of OOP, tbh.

    The message here imo is less “you must be awful if women aren’t fucking you” and more “looks don’t matter, be chill.”

    No it’s because I don’t leave my house anymore unless I’m going to work or grocery shopping because I haven’t been drinking at bars, and I don’t use apps. My carapace may not be as chitinous as a xenomorph, and have me beat with the acid blood, but my personality is books and jokes, and at least I don’t reproduce parasitically…(wait…shit I guess we do…)

      If you’re looking for excuses to go out that isn’t drinking at bars - Look into book clubs, silent book readings, art classes and board game meetups…

      Most of my friends are not alcoholics, where I like drinking but hate the noise of bars. All of those events cater to all types!

    Hey! This is one of those texts that no matter how many times I read it I still have absolutely zero clue what it’s saying.

      There’s a trend where you print an unorthodox fictional character that you want to bone on a cake and then make your case for why they’re attractive.

      OOP is saying that from what they’ve seen, men generally choose characters that everyone considers hot and women choose fucked-up, grotesque monsters.

      The thesis of the post being: If women don’t wanna fuck you then you’re doing something crazy wrong because some of them want to fuck the xenomorph from Alien.

        This doesn’t make any sense to me. I’m imagining someone holding a cake with piece of paper laying on top of it which has a disney character printed on it and the person is explaining why they want to have sex with said character. Even if that is exactly what it’s describing it still doesn’t make any sense to me. That entire scenario is completely incoherent to me. What does the cake have to do with anything and why does there need to be a picture printed? Who are they making the case for and why?

          Sounds like you understand the scenario, though.

          Less Disney character and more fucked-up horror character though. When I say ‘unorthodox’ I mean ‘no sane person has sexual thoughts about this creature.’

              That’s fair, but you did accurately describe the scenario in your reply. So you at the very least understand what the scenario is, even if you don’t get the motivation.

      Seriously. Who the fuck actually wastes their time on this shit?

      Edit: Self-reflection creeps in as I realize I’m just getting old and these kids on my lawn are just speaking their idiot slang.

        Same. I read these and it gets so surreal, I need to share it.

        Dunno if it’s like kids eating tidepods where a few did it and now it’s a national meme, or if this is just the deep basements of Tumblr.

    It just sounds like two different age groups were being described, not two genders

    Nah, there were definitely guys with wild picks as well. The most memorable for me was the guy that chose the number 8. Although, I guess this example works against my point, cause it shows that guys would fuck anything with curves and holes.

    Or…or…hear me out: society and social media has bred a collection of individuals that do stupid shit strictly just to generate traffic. I highly doubt any of those women would ever, if actually faced with those, do it or want to. It’s for the shock value and to get the interaction going. Basically ‘any publicity is good publicity’.

    I have never used TikTok, so maybe they’re right about this, but there’s a good chance that selective memory bias is at play here, which is when you only focus on the examples that prove your preexisting beliefs and forget about all the examples that didn’t.

      Ha, the explanation is probably even more simple. The ones that were wild were liked and shared, the ones that were normal didn’t get any engagement.

      You can’t get good metrics from social media without being able to access the entire data set.

      Like seriously, how do you go from “haha these people have silly horny thoughts” to “you’re an insufferable human being if you can’t get laid”? That sounds like what a middle school bully might say.

        “As long as you don’t have any standards, you can get laid!”

    I choose things I would want to fuck based on how I think it would physically feel. I don’t think fucking a concept or a xenomorph would be physically pleasurable. I mean, sure the xeno is wet but they also look like they’d be hard; like fucking a sea shell.
