I know that I am four years late here, but let's talk about Locker Rooms, and Locker Room Talk. (Thread)
This will be a bit vulgar, but I hope you can forgive me, as my purpose is to illuminate male society.
Remember when Trump said his statements were "Locker Room Talk?"

As someone who is a veteran of many a locker room, I was appalled by Trump's statement, as much as were endless numbers of athletes and martial artists.
In exchange for bringing up a bad memory, let me tell a funny story about a friend named "Davey." https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/home-page/athletes-respond-trumps-usage-locker-room-talk

I was in a locker room with Davey, and I decided to tease him about a girl he had a crush on:
Me: "So you gonna ask her out?"
Davey: "What? who?"
Me: "Janey. I've seen you can't stop staring at her tits."
Davey: "No"

Me: "Seriously? If I've noticed it, there is no way Janey hasn't noticed it. She's not an idiot."
Davey: "No way you have it all wrong!"
Me: "Stop lying, douche. I will be you wingman, now ask her out."
And then we all got together and brainstormed ideas for dates.

And then we all got together and brainstormed ideas for dates.
These ideas ranged from coffee and sandwiches for lunch, to a rom-com movie, to pasta and wine dinner date.
OK, so lay off ladies no one has ever accused us of being the most inventive on the first date.
At no point however, did anyone ever suggest he sexually assault her.

Because if anyone was to suggest sexual assault, then there would be only two ways to leave that locker room:
1: Bow, and make a full apology.
2: An ambulance.
And that is a fact. No threats, no warnings. Only action. And we all know it down to the marrow.

So, I was Davey's wingman.
And he got shot down by her lol. I suppose that means it is my failure as well. But Davey's a good man, so, I consider it her loss really, but that's just the way things go sometimes. And we just have to learn to accept that, really.

I know that male culture can seem to be frightful and enigmatic to women at times. But, ladies, if you don't think that there are good men out there fighting for you, then, I'm sorry to say, but you are dead wrong.
I suck at first dates. That doesn't mean I'm a bad guy.
