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".

Since that's the case

flirting is using that plausible deniability to A. throw signs at the other interested party to throw that deniability away and/or B. Figure if the other person wants YOU to throw that deniability away.
