Toasters club? Is that the same as Toastmasters? I always thought that was for old people.

When you can create a coherent sentence then you can criticize my choices. No BS. This works for me. I never said all men should do this.

If "b**ch" was a shade of body paint, it would sell out very quickly.
I just don't understand why people can't be nice and civil

I had someone approach me last week at the bookstore- this is a guy who doesn't fit what I'm attracted to physically- but I was still nice and had a little conversation with him, all the while letting him know that I wasn't interested. He apologized for the inconvenience but was nice. It makes me cringe whenever guys like that are treated completely badly by women, just because these women feel that they deserve it for even approaching them.
I totally agree with you if the guy that approaches you does it in a nice way. But there have been quite a few that are really pushy, make sexual comments or try to be touchy feely. Enough of those will make you not want to be nice.

Sure, it would be nice if everyone was civil, but the ones who aren't have done you a big favor by revealing themselves as crappy people. You don't have to wonder why he wasn't interested if you can walk away and say, "dang, I dodged a bullet there."

That's a good point. I rarely ever approach people because I'm shy when it comes to that, and I'm horrible at flirting, but if I approached a guy and he was outright nasty to me, I'd probably feel bad and want to cry.

Wow , by looking at your pics, I am sure there must be traffic jams of men trying to get your attention.. I'm glad you are considerate to them when you reject them one by one.. Nothing like being rejected by a beautiful woman .

If you need any flirting practice, I can volunteer my time..

It's like admiring a beautiful painting that you're not prepared to buy or steal.

Men are scared of rejection. Period. Women may be the weaker sex physically, but mentally, they kill us. Rejection to a man can take a toll on a very important piece to his overall makeup, his ego.

Yep. I am polite to men who approach me, even if they aren't my type. However many of them make sexual comments and yes I will tell them off and be rude.
