A teenage boy likely thought he was being thoughtful and romantic when he came up with the idea of using live rabbits to help him ask a young girl to go to prom with him.
But the would-be Casanova didn’t count on the furry fiends totally stealing the spotlight from his sweetly-staged promposal by vigorously mating in front of the pair of them while he was trying to ask her that all-important question.
At least in every American coming of age movie ever that’s the point and purpose. Although they tend not to call it mating.
Stereotypes do have their uses …
We’re any students traumatised by this clear and obvious micro aggression?
It may be the point but everyone knows that you don’t get there by being that obvious. Asking girls if they would like a f**k may work in the sense you can ask dozens per hour and after a while one of them is bound to say yes. But if you have a special girl in mind, you need to be more subtle about it.
You need to say something like “In vain I have struggled, this will not do, allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you” when of course all you want to do is shag her.
Having your understudies draw attention to your cunning plan isn’t going to help.
