[Here’s](http://www.reddit.com/r/seduction/comments/f6ve5/fr_tofutofus_physical_pushpull_as_an_opener_short/) another entry in the Ken Hoinsky reddit rape series. Posted under his reddit handle, TofuTofu, it’s perfect for those times when negging just isn’t enough. He calls it Physical Push/Pull, but that sounds dumb. Instead, I like to call it “The Ol’ Shove 'n Love”. Behold.

Oh, this guy.

I will admit I have zero game with women in clubs, but I have a difficult time believing that shoving some girl like that you’ve never seen is going to get a positive reaction.

Sounds like one of those fifth grade boys who thought picking on girls was a good way to show them he liked them.

Yep the guy doesn’t have a clue.  
And the supposed BJ in the nightclub…sounds exactly like the kind of claim teenage boys make to their bros.

Why do we need to consider this false choice? The First Amendment restricts the power of the government to suppress speech. You’re implying it says we should all live and let live and let people say or buy and sell whatever they like, but there’s nothing like that in the First Amendment. The First Amendment actually does the exact opposite because it empowers people to organize and protest against things that they don’t like. And I think it would be pretty easy to argue that a society that won’t say anything about illegal or immoral behavior is worse than a society where everybody says ‘eh, go ahead- doesn’t affect me.’
