"Men are bad at picking up on women's hints." What are your actual thoughts on this sentiment? (lemmy.world)

Either through memes or comments I keep seeing this sentiment pop-up from time to time. And I'm wondering what your (yes, you) consensus is on it.

I for one am too pessimistic to do anything with potential hints. Like even if there is a good chance I still just don't want to risk it.

something about me that no one is willing to tell me

Let me try: You're decently attractive, quick to offer help and have a meek and gentle nature. Sounds like you? These women were looking for a shoulder to cry on without giving anything in return. She was touching you because things weren't going so great with her boyfriend.
