To think man I’m dating was wrong to ask this? Or is it ‘normal’ these days and I’m just prudish

Man I’ve been on 6/7 dates with and all going well.

I was at a works do last night, posh hotel so dressed up. Sent him a photo of me once I’d got ready.

He replied ‘where’s the money shot’

I asked what he meant and he said ‘your tits obviously’

I haven’t dated for years so don’t know if this is just how things are now..but was I wrong to be taken aback?

I thought the money shot was a porn term for seeing the man jizz. Never heard it for boobs. Either way it's gross

So no ‘you look lovely’, ‘you’re gorgeous’ or anything similar?
Straight into vulgar joke about money shot?

I would lose quite a bit of respect to this man. It shows what’s on his mind really.

No doubt he will explain it away as him having an ‘edgy’ sense of humour.

Meh, I would be disappointed.

Yes, it can be 'normal'. But we don't have to date 'normal'. And women rewarding these arseholes isn't a good idea.

That would be the end of that for me. I’d have broken things off with him immediately.

Before we rush to conclusions - is he an ornithologist?

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 31/10/2025 14:25

Er - no, that's absolutely vile.
It would make me stop dating him.
What a disrespectful thing to say.
🤮

Are you dating Jay from the Inbetweeners?

It’s only normal with idiots, at that stage in a relationship.

Sweetbeansandmochi · 31/10/2025 14:25

I wouldn’t have known what he meant either.

Clementine12 · 31/10/2025 14:25

That would give me the instant ick

It's normal for some men. But not the men I would want to date.
