What's the male alternative? Trying on shirts in the wrong size?

I usually have a woman initiate conversation with me in line at the grocery store every 3-4 trips just by minding my own business. IDK if they mean anything by it or how to turn that into a date but it is something that happens.

Just stare at tits until one of their owners falls in love with you

Go to the grocery store and keep staring at the scented soaps

Pro-Tip: Until they recently dropped the misleading product, "Unscented" Dove soap had perfume in it. Sensitive Skin Dove soap does not.

The supermarket doesn't have any showers to take though

[–] needanke@feddit.org 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You'd have better luck at the hardware store: stronger soaps, more shower selection, and really effective scouring pads.

Depends. Did you remember your wad of hundreds and pack of Magnum condoms?

[–] bstix 3 points 1 day ago

Ask for assistance. It's a great conversation starter.

Now they still don't want to talk to you

[–] TooManyGames@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 day ago

Devilishly clever!

There isn't one. When that stuff about "they chose the bear" happened, they meant it.

You have to be vetted and have an in, give their dog bacon. Volunteer.

RIP women, but tbh what did they expect when they chose the bear

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 4 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I mean, they're not exactly wrong, the odds of getting raped on an evening walk are drastically higher than a bear screwing with them.

Being a guy, I think the odds are still relatively low, but also being a guy, I don't have any say in how they feel about things nor their experience to understand.

A random bear is a lot more likely to maul you to shit than a random dude is to rape you lol. It's a horrible choice but I respect it (rip)

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 3 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

A random bear is a lot more likely

I get the feeling you're not acquainted with wild bears.

Unless they feel threatened (especially with cubs) they generally DGAF.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 1 points 13 hours ago

I think it really depends on the bear. Polar or grizzly, and you're in trouble.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

This is about being with a bear vs a dude though. That stat is for randomly getting attacked...

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 3 points 14 hours ago

g with a bear vs a dude though. That stat is for randomly getting attacked…

This was the sauce

be in the woods with a bear or a man

The Parks Service is reporting on bear attacks in the woods.

While true it's not man attacks in the woods, it's close enough to at least understand it.
