“The idea of simply trying to be a good human being sounds like a more attractive, and productive approach.”

This is a comment by Web on the post “Why Do Men Objectify Women?“

Web responds to Leia’s comment:

“This made me smile. It’s nice when you hear that all you have to do is be a good person.

“There’s usually a lot about the way you comb your hair, the way you walk, how you word your sentences, who’s with you, how many extra pushups at the gym. And if girls aren’t flocking yet, you aren’t trying hard enough! Double the pushups! Remember those leg positions! Be funny, kinda cocky, but not cocky, and not goofy. Be sexual, it turns her on, but whatever you do, don’t be sexual; girls don’t know they like sex. They’ll be offended.

“Blah blah blah blah. It’s freaky if you feel like you need to practice “being yourself, as long as it’s this one way.” Who would want a relationship like that? The idea of simply trying to be a good human being sounds like a more attractive, and much more productive, approach.”
