I fall in love and hook up regardless of gender. Your combination of body parts, gender identity, and expression mean nothing to me as far as whether or not you’re a potential sexual or romantic partner. Do you give me butterflies in my stomach or tingles in my nether region? Cool. Then I’ll pursue it.
But in my experience dating and sleeping with straight, cisgender dudes who worship hegemonic masculinity, I’ve noticed that there’s something really — umm — special about how they go about navigating sexuality.

Namely, it’s amazing how subtly (and sometimes overtly) they’ll blurt out (or breathily whisper) the most sexualizing, objectifying, rape culture-y things. Or things that just go to show that they either have zero respect for your needs or absolutely no. fucking. clue. how bodies work.
So here are (only) 20 examples of the weirdest and rudest shit dudes have ever tried to pull on me in sexual situations.
1. In high school, I was on a date with a guy at Pizza Hut. I was holding my plastic glass of Pepsi with one hand, playing with the condensation on the outside of the red cup. My date said, “I know what you’re doing.” I made a quizzical face. He responded, “You’re simulating a hand job.”
2. In reference to the above, the only reason why I remember specifically that we were at Pizza Hut is because he had already told me that the way I dipped my breadstick in marinara and then stuck it in my mouth was making him hard.

What kind of men do you date???!
Nice witch hunt. You could do the same after a decade of dating women if you go looking to be offended by everything. Any joke said clearly in cheeky jest (and a lot of that happens with sex) can be turned into evidence of misogyny or misandry if you try. Any request for anything other than vanilla verbalised consented sex can be turned into something horrific if you try. And you are trying very hard I feel.
Wow, that's obviously touched a nerve, Anon. Over reaction much? Someone's obviously trying too hard to be offended, and I don't think it's the author.
Did you even read the article before rushing to be offended? She lists explicit and specific examples of absolute douchery.. There is no way to take any of that 'out of context'. You're outing yourself as a misogynist, 'Anon' and attitudes like yours are the reason this article was ever written. And I'm not saying there are no selfish women. I guess that would be a different article. Wouldn't it. - One that would seem a bit reaching as it wouldn't have an entire culture of female dominance in the bedroom to support it.
