What is flirting?
flirt: playful behavior intended to arouse sexual interest
Sweet Jesus.
There is a limit to when you're being too nice to someone, this is flirting. When you're putting yourself out there just to be the center of attention is also flirting.
Sigh...I really can't stand people that are flirty that don't even realize it. AROUSE. SEXUAL. INTEREST.
That's serious stuff!
Not to be taken lightly, y'all.
I admit I can flirt but I need to not flirt...seriously need to not.
I respect women so much some call me a Feminist, so I feel sometimes flirting with them is not respecting them.
But there are times when women can't draw the line between being considerate and flirty when in a group setting or when hanging out with someone of the opposite sex.
RAWR.

I don’t realize when I do it. Since your definition is intent to arouse sexual interest, and some people don’t realize that they’re flirting, it must not be a (fully) conscious intent: it must be an unintentional intent, i.e. an intent that isn’t quite an intention (my, what fine-grained distinctions we have to make here).
ReplyDeleteMy problem’s that I can never recognize my motives well enough. It seems, though, that we also like to boil everything down to intentions (which are conscious), sometimes improperly so, because we think we’re morally responsible only for what we think.
Ok, I think this’ll be a lot of work just to define. I gave a shot at clarifying.
