Women hold conversations on every app? This feels like an extremely misogynistic take. I've literally never had a problem with women not being able to hold a conversation, like, some do and some don't. It's just an app and you aren't entitled to people's time.
Have fun complaining about women for not responding to your almost-certainly rancid-ass vibes lmao
I presume you regard what you just did to be "holding a conservation"?
Interesting theory! Thanks for sharing.
You: That's mysogynistic

You know I've never, or at least very rarely, used pick up lines or jokes to initiate conversations on dating apps and it's been fine? It's kind of the worst way to start an actual conversation IMHO but you do you. I never once mentioned jokes or pick up lines and it's weird you brought it up lol
Pickup lines are worse than just saying hey, like wow you copy pasted a cliche from a Google search! What is she supposed to do with that? How is that a conversation?
Ha big doenvotes from the incel faction.
It's always so funny when people push these obvious self tells, like yeah you're not going to be a good match with everyone so a lot of conversations die but as soon as someone starts blaming an entire gender for not being able to hold a conversation its a pretty clear sign they're the problem.
YUP. So much defensiveness and bitterness in this thread. Of course, they're not the problem it's Women.
