Poll: Lying to get laid is OK?

[Arsen]

"Getting laid" should never be the reason for anything. It's a shallow, careless gesture towards the opposite sex that could better be spent having something more meaningful.

It depends on what you're lying about. If it's an STD or something, then hell no! But if it's about whether or not you like cats, I think it's fine.

Lying to get into a relationship is a different story.

Ugh.. I am being defensive at the moment, and it's clear you don't understand why I didn't like what you said, so..

'Shemale' is a term invented by the porn industry to describe a pre-op MtF transexual, that is to say someone who is undergoing a surgical transition from male to female and usually has had upper body surgery but not lower body. Because it was invented to basically market 'freak porn', it's kind of offensive and has quite a lot of unpleasant and degrading connotations.

A cross dresser is someone who wears 'opposite sex' clothes irrespective of context. It's not a type of person, it's just something people do. A lot of people cross dress without being transgendered. A lot of people cross dress despite being completely vanilla straight in all other aspects of their lives. Heck, a guy who wears a dress as a joke on his stag night is cross dressing. I've cross dressed many times, and I'm not trans.

The other reason is this. Transexual and transgendered people have socially and in most cases legally changed their gender. They see themselves as a member of the gender they are transitioning into and have every right to do so. Referring to them as cross dressers is incredibly dismissive of their wishes and is thus incredibly offensive.

It's just little things, but it makes a huge difference to people in that position.

No. Lying to get laid makes you a total scumbag douche.
Whether in a relationship, for a one-night stand, or whatever.
Lying for sex? Scumbag douche thing to do.

This man speaks the truth.

Lying is always fine as long as you're prepared to face the consequences.

 

[General BrEeZy]

its all a thing of priorities. you cant choose what happens as a result of your decent/bad/weird choices...

 

[Maxtro]

Lying can get you laid?!

What do I have to say?

 

[Jessta]

Depends on what the lie is about, for example, ya sure I brought a condom, no, I don't have any stds, or nooooo I'm not married I just like this ring, those are all examples of lies that are probably bad to use. However, saying something like, pfft I'm not a virgin, or I'll give ya the best night of your life, or your the prettiest girl I've ever seen, those are lies that are probably ok.

Did anyone else have an add on their captcha? lol my captcha was get out after the stupid ad.

Lying to get laid is perfectly fine. Humans have been doing it for thousands of years.

If a girl can put on a push up bra, several layers of makeup, and a hair bumpet and go out to pick up guys why cant a guy tell a girl he's the president of Ireland and that he invented the internet powered car to fulfill his portion of the ritual?

Both genders do it, the only difference is women don't have to.

What? No simple Yes answer?

[winter2]

I have lied about my name and where I work and live before with one night stands. Hey... I have been stalked once already and that was plenty for me thankyouverymuch.

 

[Samurai Goomba]

lol what?

Of course not. In part because you never know if that one-night stand will really stay that way, and you can't be sure you'll never meet that person again. The other reason is because it's dishonest and sleazy.

Lying about your identity is something different, if it's to protect your privacy.
