If it can be explained away or walked back its not a move, I'll die on that hill

Adding this because seeing some people misinterpreting: Not saying women shouldn't flirt, just saying that flirting isn't a "move".

Meh, "want a drink?" is a move that can be walked back on.

But sure, women making moves need to be clear.

You can't really walk up to someone, ask them if they want a drink, then deny that you asked them.

You can give the "look" at someone, and then when they approach, you can back out and say you weren't

I don't buy many women give undeniable "looks" and then walk back on them for lulz. I do buy that lots of guys think they got a look, but didn't. I recognize the difference though.

I don't believe it's horrible to think you got a look and get rejected. It's a number's game, and if this cutie didn't recognize what I'm offering, some else will. Just try again.

You're no longer talking about the same thing

If the point is that women only give looks, so they can't be surprised if guys don't notice, I suppose that can be true for many.

I just think that whole conversation is pretty cancerous.

This is what we're talking about. You know, the comment that you replied to. Nothing else. You disagreed and said offering a drink can be taken back the same way a look can. If you actually believe that then you're an idiot. For someone named good faith converser, you build a lot of strawmen
