I think it may be that a lot of women don’t enjoy the kind of u wanted attention due to their being sexualized from a young age, or that is what I have been told by many women I have talked to about their experiences.

And their experiences are valid, but the response doesn't need to be such an aggressive do-not-approach mentality.

Many years back I was in a shop that had an oldies channel on and I heard this song that, while from well before my time so I'm speculating a bit here, probably caused some panic back in their time.

Now we OnlyFans and TikTok with all their various levels of showing off that has for a long time been championed as empowering and free willed choice.

Somewhere in the middle ground between the excessively conservative repressed mind and the 'everything is sex' space there was a nice middle ground of 'hey, would you like to go out some time' without it being a commitment for either marriage or an orgy.
