The Rule Is That There Are No Rules

Rather recently, I compiled on the fly a list of the most absurd things guys had said or done while trying to fuck me, inspiring a rather impassioned response from many of you. It also inspired a response from The Times' Sathnam Sanghera, who said that "modern man is an impossible position when it comes to seduction." Um, actually, that's sort of the point.

How can I put a stop to this? Stop buying with her. Get your own stash and let her know why you did. If she were a real stoner she would have her own stash too, and this never would have happened in the first place. [Nerve]
