Online dating means anonymity and an enormous pool of willing applicants to choose from. So it’s not really surprising that dudes are on there trying out the world’s worst pickup/sexting lines left and right. They have very little to lose, after all.
But, still. Some of these sext attempts are just…a lot. Where do these dudes evenΒ come up with this sh*t? Some of them were clearly cribbed off more clever people on Reddit. But others are the result of unrestrained horniness, and/or stupidity, and/or just willful ignorance? Honestly, I don’t know. I couldn’t tell you. Nobody can.
But there is one among us who is dedicated to documenting all these sexting fails anyway. They go by the Tumblr name ofΒ straightwhiteboystexting,Β and before you get all mad about the name, let me offer an explanation straight from the horse’s mouth: “The name of this blog is based off of the phenomenon of the βstraight white boy textβ aka asking βhey whatβs your bra size ;)β in the middle of a conversation, or things like βwhat would you do if you were here haha lol ;)β. Basically things that even if you want to sext with the person, they either completely ruin the mood either because theyβre not sexy or because it pretty much puts all the sexting work on you. The phrase βyou sext like a straight white boyβ comes from this. Boys of all orientations and races do this. And not all of them do it, either.”
So there.
