[ExI] ExI] are we publishing?

 In my mind, we have already established that lying with
regard to sex isn't even really lying, it's... emmmm... you know... it's
what... we humans do when we are trying to coax a mate.  Honest people can
lie in that particular area and still be considered honest.   spike

While some men will say anything to get sex, this is a bad idea.  Some of
it is illegal.  But if the women is unsure of herself beforehand, she will
feel conflicted afterwards, about herself and about you.  Do you care about
that?  If you don't you are a sexual predator with little human empathy.  I
strongly disagree with the last sentence Spike wrote.  You are talking
about taking advantage of a person and apparently don't care.  Yeah, men
will be OK with it.  Will women?  I think not.  It all comes down to what
the woman thinks.  It is NOT OK if you are lying to get her to comply if
you think she wants it too.  Of course she does.  She is human.  Humans
like sex a lot - even women, if you know what to do with them - or care.
There seems to be too many men who just don't care about anything but Mr.
Needy.  Wham bam...
