Is it common to open with dick pic and then “hey” because that build order doesn’t work on the hetero apps
on grindr it’s basically a handshake and the further into transition i got the more i hated the entire app and male hookup culture generally
How do you do, may i inspect your member? Eh, it’s to the pointi guess
I have and will continue to bang men, but I couldn’t stand grindr. It’s just really slimy.
i respect it. the more i felt outside the clubhouse, the more i disassociated genitals from gender, the less i wanted to do with the masculine.
which is something i’ve never really unpacked, but it makes a pansexual me functionally lesbian
It does work a lot more often in this context
that build order doesn’t work on the hetero apps
doesn’t stop dudes from tryin’!
I was joking but yeah you’re probably right
It’s an aggressive opener for sure, I usually commit to 4pool before dickpic but I usually play off-meta
Dickpic opener is an old meta, it got solved when people figured out the “screenshot-and-send-to-their-wife” tech. It might work against an inexperienced dater, but at that point you’re not even gaining Elo.
Ah yes the original broken build
There’s a reason that Grindr predates Tinder, that’s all I’m saying
Over text ‘have you seen my gun’ sounds like a threat lol
Yea that’s a risky text that could be misinterpreted very easily lmao
what are they gonna do, report you to the cops over your oddball message to sexual harassment?
I was more thinking about how uncomfortable/threatened I’d feel if someone asked me “have you seen my gun” with 0 context.
Maybe I’m not American enough to understand but asking that out of nowhere would definitely put me on edge, especially knowing how some guys act on these dating/hookup apps (and real life tbh)
I see your point but then I feel “opened with a dickpic” is critical context here
You’re right that
Yuritopiaposadismthe op’s response wasn’t “out of nowhere” and it goes without saying that no one should be sending unsolicited nudes, but if DickPicGuy doesn’t know about DE it could be misinterpreted asYuritopiaposadismthe op threatening him with a gun in response.It’s funny if you know DE, I was just pointing out it could be interpreted as threatening if you lacked that context
Edited
For context, op is not mine. Found it on r/DiscoElysium.
You see mysterious strangers in the night. Leaning against unlit doorways, engaged in hushed conversation. A shadowy cabal exchanging looks, whispering in dark alleys and unmarked locales. A radical cell conspiring against the state – and perhaps even against man and woman. Was that a secret handshake? What’s going on? Who are these secretive people? How will they accomplish their sinister and world-altering goals? And most importantly – are you one of them? You could be. Maybe you forgot…
