Do guys use MFP to try and hit on women?

Bit random this I know but its something I've noticed. The auto messages that are posted, say for instance under your calorie allowance for the day, If its a guy no one gives a fk, a female "Oh wow amazing" "Great work" etc etc with a load of likes mostly from guys. Female loses 1lb same thing "Wow great work" etc, guy loses 10lb no one gives a fk.

    Reminds me of that episode of Friends. "Joey, are men ever nice to strange women for no reason?"
    "No. Only for sex." lol

    It is yes, but I just used that as an example.

    If a female happens to post a progress pic some of the comments are cringe-worthy, but then I also think some females just crave the attention.

    I think all people crave some attention, otherwise we'd never leave the house. We are social beings are all.

    I've deleted a few for unwanted and inappropriate messages, it's to be expected I suppose.

    The men on MFP are just innocent people trying to embark on their fitness journey with a little support....its the women that are ruthless with the desire to hook up with all the boys.....yup thats how it goes ;)

    Brazen hussies indeed.

    Most guys would use two Dixie cups connected with a string to hit on women if necessary

    Right lol that's too funny . Its human nature cant blam up.

    I swear I didn't know it was being filmed...the wink at the camera was purely coincidental

    I wonder if these guys get more likes or comments from the women on their friend list and are reciprocating. Maybe guys just don't interact with other guys like that normally. IRL would it be normal to comment and compliment a guy about as much or would it be seen as weird?

    I never noticed a difference between the responsiveness of men and women friends to wall posts of mine. I didn't feel hit on. I have no idea if the guy who liked something of mine ignored a similar guy post from someone else on their friend list though.

    Some people are bound to be hitting on other people.
    There are some guys who have only women on their friend list.
    I don't think it is all guys doing that kind of thing.

    If you don't find the person supportive or inspiring to all people equally you can always unfriend them.

    I don’t think it’s just guys hitting on girls. My friends list is really one medium sized circle jerk. It’s dead even as to who the biggest lech is
  • How insulting...I for one, like to harass both sexes

    I have been waiting... and nothing :'(

    I'm still waiting for d pics. So I guess not. The dudes who contacted me asked to take me to the sockhop and then to church. Totally lame ...
