I got this in an e-mail. Some of them are downright insulting. Can we come up with better ways (for those that are insulting) f getting the message across without the insult (dehumanizing)?



Ways To Turn Down Unwanted Men!!!



1. HE : Can I buy you a drink?
SHE : Actually I'd rather have the money.

2. HE : I'm a photographer. I've been looking for a face like yours.
SHE : I'm a plastic surgeon. I've been looking for a face like yours.

3 HE : Hi. Didn't we go on a date once? Or was it twice?
SHE : Must've been once. I never make the same mistake twice.

4 HE : How did you get to be so beautiful?
SHE : I must've been given your share.

5 HE : Will you go out with me this Saturday?
SHE : Sorry. I'm having a headache this weekend.

6 HE : Your face must turn a few heads.
SHE : And your face must turn a few stomachs.

7 HE : Go on ,don't be shy. Ask me out.
SHE : Okay, get out.

8 HE : I think I could make you very happy.
SHE : Why? Are you leaving?

9 HE : What would you say if I asked you to marry me?
SHE : Nothing. I can't talk and laugh at the same time.

10 HE : Can I have your name?
SHE : Why? Don't you already have one?

11 HE : Shall we go see a movie?
SHE : I've already seen it.

12 HE : Where have you been all my life?
SHE : Hiding from you.

13 HE : Haven't I seen you some place before?
SHE : Yes. That's why I don't go there anymore.

14 HE : Is this seat empty?
SHE : Yes, and this one will be if you sit down.

15 HE : So, what do you do for a living?
SHE : I'm a female impersonator.

16 HE : Hey baby, what's your sign?
SHE : Do not enter.

17 HE : Your body is like a temple.
SHE : Sorry, there are no services today.

18 HE : If I could see you naked, I'd die happy.
SHE : If I saw you naked, I'd probably die laughing.

I'm thinking this might fit better in the humor forum.

[MrCrabby]

Nah, it's probably already over there.

[Guitaress]

Wow, those are horrible! Just plain rude

I htought 10 was kinda funny though

[fedsigMaster]

Some of them sound like there from a movie. Others are just plain korny. That's the reason why I don't ask strange girls out. You never know what type of turndown remarks the may have.

[adamkaboom]

HAHA!!! that was great.....i've heard some girls use these before... and I must admit, they are hilarious to hear!!! it would probably stink if they were used on you but otherwise....

[bobthecockroach]

Ok, this doesn't belong here. I'm sending it to CPF.

[SecretAgentRat]

I find them insulting--and I'm a girl.

Honestly.

[~Melmo~]

I love those!!! They're great!!!

I find most of those insulting, too. 15 was mildly amusing, but only because it's something I'd say and then regret later.

Good way to divert the unwanted attention of men:

Stay Home.

[el cabong]

I actually think I've heard some of those first hand. I be smooth with the ladies. Once I asked a girl "What kind of exhaust do you have on that thing?"

And then she slapped you for pointing at her bottom?

[Meggie moo moo]

Haha!
