Question: Do you people even pronounce R correctly? Like how the Swedes and Iranians do? Do not roll ... and never go French with Rs!

I sometimes pronounce random words with an extremely rolled R just for kicks. I actually love it. Like good old King Charles:

You'd think as a Swede I would... but I live in the one province notorious for just removing the r's because we just can't say them properly. Unlike many others here though I can if I focus really really hard.

No (unless you do it in an obviously rude or too persistent way). I think the point she was trying to make though is that many women live in constant anticipation of propositions, and the possible consequences of rejecting them. I was taking a walk when a teenager walked up to me and asked me to "give him a kiss". I told him off and kept walking, but the encounter made me constantly look behind my back to see that he wasn't following me as I was walking out into the forest. Many of us are conditioned to always be prepared and to always attempt to defuse any situation we find ourselves in so that we won't potentially anger someone. It can be exhausting to be on guard like that. Yeah it sucks to be a woman in a man's world. No doubt about that. But him asking for her number isn't harassment in my eyes. Her being annoyed or a little afraid does not equal harassment. How does one know if an advance will be unwanted until it's made? If the individual persists after rejection that's harassment. Not before. Unless of course the individual behaves in a manner they know will not be received positively but does so anyway. I don't believe this was the case with Brie Larson. She got annoyed and a little afraid at the possible consequences of her rejecting him and foolishly labeled this as harrassment in her anger and frustration at being a woman in a man's world. By man's world I mean a non egalitarian world that favors men.

We don't even really have the culture of asking people out in Sweden, we just "hang out" until at some point both acknowledge themselves as a couple... which makes it difficult sometimes because one party thinks they were on a date while the other thinks they were just hanging out like friends. I've had to have at least one such awkward conversation at least. Wait. I'm some having trouble understanding this. How are they "hanging out" if no one ever asks anyone out?

A question: How far ahead do women think ahead when starting a relationship? You know, you meet someone and there is the right chemistry and potential for something long term. For the sake of argument just picture this: Introduction to the parents, moving together in a house with a picked fence, having separate careers, getting a pet, having children, having grandchildren, retiring and eventually dying. Yes, generalized and over simplified, but my impression is that women picture all life situations with said partner before making a commitment. On a personal note, I have been criticized for never initiating the "next step" so to speak. Me arguing that I'm quite happy where we are right now has not been satisfactory. Honestly, I just prefer to live in the present, and unless I feel an urge to move on to something else in my life, I'm not going to suggest it. I think the deciding factors are what she's looking for in a partner and the potential she sees in him, and what her long term, short term goals are if any.

I'm not sure how to better describe it... we don't really have much of a "dating culture" here. What we have is something called "fika", but you do that with everyone; family, friends, coworkers... so let's say you're interested in a girl, the common thing would be asking to have fika with you. However, like I said we do this with everyone, so she might just as well think you are just having it as friends. And because Swedes are terribly awkward socially we don't have the culture of stating our intentions plainly. I once thought I was having a night of just watching movies with a friend that turned out he actually considered it a date. It was pretty awkward explaining I didn't think of him that way at all and never would (might sound harsh, but it's better than giving false hope). @@vella , I'm pretty sure you have the same thing in Finland, help me out here!

Umm... I have not been dating like ever so I am bad at giving any insights to finnish dating culture. I think casual friendships between men and women are very common so it can sometimes get confusing. If you go out and hang around with someone you didnt know before well and they ask your number then thats obviusly for dating purposes.

Can't wait for the day when there will be real equality and the % of asking for dates is 50/50. Then men can experience the unwanted questions and the woman can experience the great chance to be unceremoniously rejected. I'd be very flattered if a woman were to ask me out, though I'd wonder if she were serious given my physical appearance that and I'd probably be too dense to realise that's what she was doing. idk how I'd react to a woman asking me out. I've had a couple of times where a girl would tell me I'm 'cute', but that ends up with my mind going into a sort of 'soft reboot' where my mouth decides not to cooperate so I end up not saying anything for a couple moments before going back to whatever the original subject was before the 'cute' comment. Maybe I'd have the same reaction? Though, since I'm ace, appearance doesn't really matter to me, but I'm also not interested in going out with people I just met, so I guess it'd depend on how well I know the person before it'd be a possibility to agree to go out with them.

Would you want to be Alexander the Great or Alexander the Cute? Hrumph.

Would you want to be Alexander the Great or Alexander the Cute? Hrumph. Stalin isn't exactly a good example, in all fairness. To me, a compliment is a compliment, so idc about whether someone calls me 'cute' or 'handsome', it's still a compliment. Though, idk how I'd react if someone called me 'hot'. It'd probably make me feel uncomfortable. I won't use the word 'cute' to describe anyone, but that's mainly because I associate the word with puppies, kittens, and stuff like that. As for the concept of manliness, well... I've never really put much stock in it and idc if something I like isn't considered 'manly'. Prime example: I thoroughly enjoy romances, especially the fluffy ones. Is it considered manly? Nope, but I still enjoy them. Whatever floats your boat, though, I guess.

I would be caught off guard by a dame outright hitting on me or asking me out, but if she looked and sounded appealing, I'd just swim with the current and not overthink it. Given how uncommon it is for girls do the asking out, when one actually does, you just have to run on auto-pilot at that point.

Because life is nothing but a cruel joke and women are only interested in a partner who understands the underlying machinations of existence, not someone completely oblivious. That is why black / dark humor is most thought after, the person possessing it is most aware of the tragic perverted game we are all stuck in. Women love that.

I'd hate to hang around anyone that can't see the fun/ironic aspects of existence. That being said, personality overall is not the only deciding factor, physical attraction does also play a part (although I usually find people with appealing personalities tends to become more physically attractive too). I hope this was the answer you were looking for.

That is what annoys me so greatly when people say that its ''personality that counts'' and looks isn't important and/or that its shallow to think that it is. Thats such a great irony. Personality has quite the influence on a persons appearance and health condition. Body and mind are connected and not two completely separate entities, a lot of what goes on inside you shows on your outside.

Given how uncommon it is for girls do the asking out, when one actually does, you just have to run on auto-pilot at that point. Yeah, I think that'd be part of my initial reaction as well, but that's more of a cultural thing than anything (at least, it is in the US- I've heard it's different in the UK in that aspect). I honestly don't know how I look to other people and getting compliments on how I look isn't exactly something I'm used to, so when it does happen, I don't really know how to respond. Then again, being ace (asexual) makes dating more complicated, but that's a subject for a different thread.
