Context: I am currently actively suppressing the urge to say someone is pretty.

    Ace ish person here who is apparently some type of hot. It’s not welcome when people hit on me in real life. If it’s mild, I ignore it. if they keep it up I ghost them and/or stop inviting them to things I’m hosting.

    In online spaces that aren’t horny, overly thirsty posters often wind up being predators trying to see who won’t enforce boundaries.

      Also worth mentioning that most women and femme presenting people deal with frequent SH throughout their days. I didn't realize how bad it was until I became more androgynous.

      That sucks, and I've also definitely done this IRL in the past. I'm sorry.
