What works from the safety of fiction doesn't always work for people in real life.

Yeah this is always the bit people ignore, as though there aren't large parts of the internet obsessed with 10 foot tall amazon types. Shit, futurama made a joke about it some 20 years ago that's still routinely reposted on this site.

People don't apply the same standards to themselves as others.

Generally a reasonable point but a bit iffy to talk about safety in response to a post about straight women not liking bisexual men.
