"...using it as an argument advertises the fact that you view women as prizes rather than as people."

That's an interesting and incendiary interpretation. Do you know for a fact that this person views women as prizes to be won or are you perhaps ascribing more meaning to the comment than can reasonably be inferred?

On top of that, the poster might be a straight woman, or a gay man, or whatever and just not into women at all.

As I explained in another thread, this comment makes no sense if you view the interaction as being about two different behaviours: a welcome advance and an unwelcome advance.

It is an impossible argument to make it you assume that the other party has a right to make a choice about who continues to pursue them for whatever damn reason they please.
