We will get in

Why conservatives are suddenly terrified of revolution
"Warren is quite correct: It is the rich who have made war against the 99 percent, not the other way around. They have dumped the tax burden onto the rest of us. They have shredded our social safety net and attacked our retirements. In their insatiable greed, they refuse even to consider raising the minimum wage for people who toil all day and can’t earn enough to feed their children. And they do everything in their power to block as many people from the polls as possible who might protest these conditions, while crushing the unions and any other countervailing forces that could fight to improve them.

The goal of this vicious war is to control all of the wealth and the government not just in the U.S., but the rest of the world, too, and to make sure the people are kept in a state of fear.

Well enough to factor in her own viewpoints.

How well is that?

You have offered an amorphous and non-descript goal-post. Be exact or its meaningless.

If you're going to argue that this is too amorphous for you to know how to act, you probably shouldn't argue that having no idea how a woman feels is the right time to hit on her.

You are the one offering the bar of how well is well enough.
My approach is that one does not know someone until one begins to talk to them. But striking up the conversation could be seen as hitting on someone, so, sometimes, you have to hit on someone to know if they want to be hit on.

Maybe you can talk to women without it being automatically about sex from the get-go. And, if you want it to be about sex from the get-go, don't bother.

You know, treat them like they're people or something.
