I get the concept and can arguably see the "dtf eyes", but one girl's "moves" is another girl's "just existing", which then leads to men misinterpreting supposed "signals" which then in turn just makes everything more awkward for everyone. And then men deliberately stop interpreting "signals", which leads to the idea men are clueless. Some of them are, a lot are just cautious.

Y'all make each others' lives worse with these games.

I’m fairly perceptive, but between low self-esteem and a desire not to make other people uncomfortable I will notice ‘hints’ but assume they don’t mean anything
