I'd love to hear how you think a rejection should go. Because most men treat polite rejections as a starting negotiation point. If men were still accepting polite rejections well and goin about their day they'd still be getting them.

Also, forceful and firm does not equal rude and nasty. Let's not forget it was you men ego kept insisting women were sending mixed signals by not being firm and direct and then blaming men for being "legitimately" confused.

Careful what you ask for.
