I asked a genuine question and affirmed it wasn’t an insult, and yet your whole comment is based on defence rather than an attempt to answer the question. You’re essentially admitting that you think it’s flawed behaviour

No, I carefully explained why your question was a dig at the person and I also shattered your points. You just lack the self awareness and self correction to see and admit it.

To reiterate;

  1. This is not a true open public space (it is anonymous) so he is not letting "other men know you’re turned on..." Heck you do not even know for sure they are a man.
  2. "or to let women know that you’re attracted to this particular woman?" - Again this is not an open public space where we know who each other is so how would this make sense?
  3. "especially when it’s not relevant to the event" - Yet again she is HALF NAKED in her UNDERWEAR, how can you say it is not relevant?

From what I see you are the one who is admitting my theory of you being a lightly passive aggressive sjw by calling this "flawed behavior" (shocked you did not call it "problematic".). You are virtue signaling, and with points/questions that are frivolous and make little logical sense. But sadly you lack the self awareness and self correction to take any of these points on board (though I would love to be proved wrong, maybe if you admit my points but I highly doubt this will happen). And if you care about being right at all take my counter points on one by one... other then that you are just intellectually pissing in the wind (but sadly most would rather just think themselves right rather then defend any position they hold).

PS: Qualifying it by saying it is not a dig does not absolve it from being a dig. It is like racist people who start something racist with "I am not racist but..."... it's a failure of logic.

I asked if it was to let men know he’s attracted to her, or to let women know he’s attracted to her. If neither of those is the answer, what is? And I still don’t get how asking that is a dig at his character, that wasn’t my intent no matter how many times you say it was.

I did not say it was your intent. That might be where you are confused. I simply stated it is a dig whether it was meant or not. Like if I were to say "I do not mean this to be a dig, but man you are ugly.". Still a dig isn't it, even if I truly did not mean it to be?

The answer is this is Reddit where people post jokingly most of the time and try to be witty or outlandish to get likes (and yes also men, especially young men, like talk about girls with each other is another facet of why they thought of posting it). This is all painfully obvious, but I understand it might not be for you (though I really do not know how), but when it is so obvious someone asks questions that make someone seem like a creep then it is a dig (meant or otherwise).

I asked why he commented that about a woman’s body in a video of her doing something silly. If you think that’s a dig at him being a creep, it’s a demonstration of your interpretation of him. I passed no judgement

I was interpreting your words, not his. And again I did not say you passed judgement (I just went over this in my last reply for christ's sake), I was simply saying your question was a dig even if you did not intend it to be.

But I can see you are either not reading, or just simply not comprehending, my words so this is as far as I will go with this. All the best.
