Cock blocking

Many people have likely experienced this scenario: you post something that garners significant interest, and soon, people start sending you DMs. A guy messages you, and you bond over a shared interest or something you posted that resonated with him. However, the moment he asks if you’re male or female and you reply “male,” he disappears from your DMs—an automatic cock block, if he’s straight (which I assume 99% here are).

So, if you identify as female on this subreddit, here’s a trick: simply state that you’re male. You’ll receive fewer or even no DMs.
