When you say what he did isnt a big deal without actually knowing what he did, it just makes you look stupid. Why spend so much time and energy proudly displaying your ignorance when you could spend a smaller amount of time informing yourself as to what happened and making an opinion that doesnt look so stupid?

Why spend this much time telling someone they look stupid instead of informing them with the information you think they're missing? There is no good guy in this argument at this point. We're both taking the low road.

This isnt really incriminating, just embarrassing for both parties. Joe (and I dont watch him) was way out of line, but this girl ignored every obvious signal that he was asking her on a date. Socially awkward girl ignores obvious signs that arent explicitly spelled out, doesnt communicate her intentions, and socially awkward drunk guy gets mad that she pretended to be oblivious and assumed she was using him. Neither handled it well, and the most embarrassing thing is sharing this account publicly to ruin his reputation. Over practically nothing. Unless I missed something about him hitting her or touching her sexually.

We don't.

But because this sounds like some shit that happened at every other party I went to in college, I don't see much reason to doubt. I know plenty of dudes that would act similarly in this situation. And generally I lean toward believing women because I'm a lib cuck unless there's some obvious reason to doubt.

Why would you instantly believe any accusation from a person you don't know. Especially without actual proof.
Because you're literally doing no harm. Believing someone does not mean condemning their alleged attacker, it just means commisserating and supporting.

He then said After I do ALLLL this for you, You meet my friends, I take you to dinner, I pay for everything and you leave me hanging, the least you could do is come back with me

That's some textbook classic sexually harassment right there. Not to mention him bring her to his hotel room to watch him shower. That's like a classic Weistein move. Separate her from her friends, make her dependent on you? That's straight out of the Dennis Reynolds playbook.

Basically yeah. After reading the whole story it sure seems like she was completely tone deaf and could have at any point said "sorry, I have a boyfriend"

She literally lied when she could have been honest about it.

Lol. Most the replies to this topic are just making my intuition seem on point. Again, maybe something else will come out. But it seems pretty clear I got a pretty good grasp on the situation so far. I'd rather have the outside perspective of many, rather than 1 perspective of someone involved with personal elements leading their emotions. You can value the person involved just because they were there if you want. I've seen enough reason to not just go 100% in on one perspective of events. But hey, everybody plays the fool sometimes.

Okay, but believing someone is one thing. Supporting them is another. I think her story amounts to a big so what? If he didnt hurt her, then there really isnt a controversy. Person tries pressuring other uncomfortable person into sex happens all the time and is a large part of learning about reading and establishing boundaries for both parties. That certain people take it really hard speaks to their immaturity. In this case, Joe was immature for reacting the way he did. This girl was immature for thinking it was a big enough deal to broadcast to the world.

In the end, finding out somebody wasn't there to fuck you shouldn't turn you into an angry asshole. And while she could have taken his signals and turned him down, he also could have made it clear he intended this to be a date. There's really nothing wrong or awkward about stopping a minute to verify intentions and it avoid prolonged shitty situations.

There are a lot of people saying stupid victim blaming shit in this topic. Having a bunch of ignorant people cosign your post doesnt do anything but show that, like you, many people dont read the full thing before they post. I dont understand why you'd be proud of being as ignorant as others.

So when you're on a "date", do you tell a bunch of people she's your girlfriend when you dont even know her?

Do you force her number into your phone?
Do you constantly pressure her to not use her phone?
Do you take away her phone and purse from her when she's at a bar?
Do you get angry and ask who she was talking to when she finally gets it back?

Do you like to act like a serial killer on dates?

Because you're ignoring the part where I'm not dedicated to my ignorance. I'm admittedly ignorant but will openly accept new information. For some reason you think it's insanely important for me to instantly have all the information for things I have no control over. Ignorance is only a problem when it's connected to stubbornness and pride. If I'm willing to adapt to information presenting itself to me, I don't see the problem. You could of easily avoided this by giving me this information and speeding up the process, but you like arguing just as much as I do. Now your pride and stubbornness would never allow you to give me insight at this point.

Because that was exactly Weinstein's move. Use your professional relationship to lure in a target, bring her up to the hotel room and strip down. That's exactly what Joe did. Thankfully he didn't have the balls to press the issue when she said no. After that Joe spent the rest of the night running the Dennis Reynolds' playbook. Where you isolate a target and make her so dependent on you that she's feel guilty for not having sex with you.

This is gross. You want to feel so superior to other men that you convince yourself that that's the only reason another man would correct his actions before he did something regrettable. If you gotta use these tactics, you're not the good guy.

This girl is socially inept and if I was her bf I'd
question her loyalty. She had every chance in the world to leave if she was that uncomfortable. With that said, if this story is true, Joe has NO game when it comes to women. He literally tried to wine and dine her and failed miserably.

Wonder what AJ's lady thinks about this. It wouldn't be surprising if she broke up with him out of disgust but not surprising either if they're decent enough to let it stay in the past considering the low damage accusations. More than likely she's going to obliterate him either way and he'll cave in taking responsibility for being a textbook fuckboy. Least that's the right thing to do anyway.

Based on the story he was just flirting by inviting her to shower with him. She didn't say in the article that he stripped down in front of her or anything.

Also, literally, around the time he made the suggestion, she writes in the article:

Again, Im assuming he doesnt have bad intentions and didnt want to be that person that says Hey are you trying to sleep with me? I have a boyfriend you know! when he was just being nice, so I just stay quiet

Honestly she handled it in very nearly the worst possible way. Accepting invitations, playing along, never once saying she had a boyfriend, etc.

Nothing serious happened. The only 'crime' here was that Joe thought it was a date and this girl never told him it wasn't. Even when he was blatantly flirting with her. I mean dude, did you even read his initial DM exchange? He literally says she's a cutie and that she can cheer him up after the panel, at which point she says "for sure!!!" and proceeds to accept a dinner invitation.

Her responses are pretty enthusiastic and she never mentioned a boyfriend so why would he have any reason to think it wasn't a date situation?

I just read half of it and it's such a nothing story lol. Does it get worse? It's painful to read from this girls judgemental perspective. She literally said "He bragged about having to go a certain way or he'd get crowded" and then literally got crowded anyway. It's not bragging if it's a legitimate reason.

And it's also obvious that he had to say she was his GF so she could stay at the table. If they knew he just brought a random girl he was hanging out with, she probably would of instantly got booted to a lobby or something.

This is literally just the awkwardness involved in hanging out with new people. Especially known people.

He shot his shot and got rejected and then carried on. I don't see how that isn't respectable.
