I blame romance movies and novels and such. It's such utter bullshit, how the stereotypical storyline is that she rejects him at first and then he's just really desperate persistent and then she eventually softens up and they're married ever after.
Some women like that little dance of rejecting and the guy not giving up, but even then only if they think you're cute beforehand.
But most women will just find that creepy and off-putting. They want to have a partner they actually find attractive themselves, not just any partner who finds them attractive enough to persist through humiliation.

What if I just want a small bag of pretzels that are overly priced, and likely stale? Can I still have sex with the vending machine to get those?

you can program anybody to like you, just because we're complex beings doesn't mean we don't have consistent behavioural traits

First I thought it was a manual for how to have sex with vending machines or some new kind of vending machine that sells sexual services or something.

From top hats and painted nails, to microphones and mewing. There, unfortunately, always seems to be a market to exploit desperate, emotionally unintelligent men seeking female affection.
It's a bit of an overgeneralization to act like men are sex-obsessed and view relationships as a transaction where they can purchase sex by being nice.
It's human to want love and care, but so many people view men as only wanting sex, so if a man complains about being lonely, isolated, or being unloved, it seems like everyone jumps to the conclusion that he's only talking about sex. Then they scorn him, reinforcing the pattern of loneliness and building the sense of frustration and being a victim of ostracization.
Likewise, if a man is kind to a woman he'll generally be regarded with suspicion, like "what are you trying to get out of this?" Some people just value kindness and try to be nice for the sake of being nice; but if it lands them with accusations and scorn then it'll only go on so long before they stop. And then people will scorn them either for being rude to women or snubbing them. It seems it's impossible to be a man in the vicinity of women without opening oneself to being labeled as a misogynist, no matter what you do.
The reality is that men are also conscious and complex human beings, and depicting them as these simple and one-dimensional sex pests isn't really moving the dialogue forward. All it does is give women a temporary feeling of moral superiority which they then chase like any other addiction.
replies:
Nah I think it's a pretty simple algorithm still: don't be weirder than you are attractive. It's just that there's really wildly varying ideas on what's weird or attractive.
replies:
If you're just after sex and can't get any via casual hook ups from bars / dating apps / fetish groups then just pay a consenting adult for sex.
If you're after genuine human connection and a relationship then you should work on yourself to be someone you'd like to be in a relationship with.

The comic lands because itβs really about basic respect and communication, not βrules.β Simple ideas, but easy to forget.
Even then she looks a bit Manic Pixie Dream Girl, so now they think sheβs quirky in a safe way and will dedicate her life to fixing a broken boy.
Alright, but what exactly are those packages in the vending machine? What do packages of sex look like? Will rocking the machine back and forth shake out free packages? Can we use the coin on a string trick or get our hand stuck in the door?
I feel there's so much we're missing here.
Post needs text alternative.
Images of text break much that text alternatives do not.
Losses due to image of text lacking alternative:
- usability
- we can't quote the text without pointless bullshit like retyping it or OCR
- text search is unavailable
- the system can't
- reflow text to varied screen sizes
- vary presentation (size, contrast)
- vary modality (audio, braille)
- accessibility
- lacks semantic structure (tags for titles, heading levels, sections, paragraphs, lists, emphasis, code, links, accessibility features, etc)
- some users can't read the image due to lack of alt text (markdown image description)
- users can't adapt the text for dyslexia or vision impairments
- systems can't read the text to them or send it to braille devices
- searchability: the "text" isn't indexable by search engine in a meaningful way
- fault tolerance: no text fallback if
- image breaks
- image host is geoblocked due to insane regulations.
Contrary to age & humble appearance, text is an advanced technology that provides all these capabilities absent from images.
