| This President’s Day Weekend, I was in Nashville for my cousin’s bachelorette party and used the opportunity to really lean into some of the traditions this occasion calls for — traditions I’d usually scoff at. The pinnacle of the weekend was when I stood on the balcony of the Honky Tonk Central on Broadway and shot tequila out of a penis-shaped water gun onto pedestrians on the sidewalk, slurring at them that “now they know what straight women feel like.” (That got a lot of laughs.) Oh, and I posted the entire thing to my Instagram stories. Because what else are you supposed to do when you’re drunkenly wielding a penis water gun?
The next morning, I checked my views on the story, and saw some familiar faces. Four men who I’d once spoken to on Bumble had viewed the story. Here’s what makes that funny, though: All four of these guys either never asked me out on an actual date or ghosted after our one and only meet-up. In fact, I have (at last count) seven men in my Instagram followers who fall into this category. And I know I’m not the only person this happens to — a handful of friends and coworkers have confirmed that this is normal behavior. |
