    Text - Kate Willett 2 hrs I love to be flirted with. I don't like being sexually harassed. These two things are not the same, and if you're arguing the point "now men can't flirt anymore," you don't understand what flirting is or you're just pretending not to in order to set up a straw man argument in favor of sexual harassment. Good flirting is fundamentally empathetic. It's about building desire and it's often pretty subtle. It's paying such deep attention to another person's emotions and body

    Text - Bret Lehne Absolutely wonderful way to put what I've been trying to tell the other men in my life who just don't get it Men can still flirt. *Predators* can't, and never really could in the first place.

    Text - Paul O'Callaghan As a guy who is not aggressive and let women pick me, I am not considered an alpha male even though I'm built like a big football player. I feel a lot of men are angry because they don't understand what's going on. Grabbing butts is supposed to be a right to many.

    Text - TerryHasAnOpinon @Terrysagirl Follow Replying to @katewillett @saladinahmed In my experience many men can't differentiate between a woman flirting and one who is just being as friendly to him as she would be to anyone. Take small steps and pay attention to responses.
