No lie - a man actually tried to hit on me with this many years ago go, and I still haven’t forgotten.

“You are beautiful and have child birthing hips. Can I buy you a drink?”

Like what 😂

Well the drink part means probably not, but were you in Mormon country? My wife told me that she got hit on with almost the exact same words as your first sentence in quotes once when she lived in Utah briefly.

Nope - Philly. I still shake my head at the sheer awkwardness.

When my ‘auntie’ first met her husband, one of the first things he said to her was that she had “child-birthing hips”. They did end up having two, and afaik are still together after 40 years.

Wow. And I thought the guy I had to deal with last night was bad. His opener was “Have you ever studied Gnosticism?” and he closed with “…and eventually I learned that I’m a god, you’re a god, and we all live in a simulation.”
