Maybe they are just really chivalrous? Yes i was aware of the ludicrousness of this statement as i was typing it.
Hahaha...yes Jaime! Oh brother...I can just imagine what goes thru the heads of these sewer dwelling excuses for card-carrying Y-chromosome humanoids.
"Hey, I'll get nice and close to Sally the next time someone comes up to snap a photo of me and her in our shared suite at the dorm. But I won't touch her. I don't want to violate her personal space, and that will make her think I'm respectful of her femininity and desire for autonomy. Then, when she knows I can be so sensitive to her needs, maybe she'll want to hang out with me at the University Center, and we can share a bearclaw donut or even a ham sandwich that my mom made. Maybe then, she'll see there's more to me, and see past my painfully shy exterior to the warm, kind, loving man I could be for her. I just hope she finally sees me for who I am. I'm tired of hearing her in the room beside me getting butt fucked and jizzed on by Rick...he's just a stupid jock on the basketball team. So what, he's black, and tall, and probaby hung like a horse, while I'm hung like a sparrow, have ED, and prematurely ejaculate into a stiff breeze. Those things are superficial, and Sally will see that I'm the best choice for her. Yep...this is all going to work perfectly according to my plan. Why didn't I think of this earlier? God, I'm so stupid...when I'm done cutting myself and ramming this coke bottle up my ass while I eat this entire German Chocolate cake, I'm going to get my act together and get organized. Yep...one day at a time..."
