I agree with this.  While I myself am ofcourse so handsome and charming that no woman has ever rejected me, I've heard that some unfortunate souls sometimes experience this. Somehow it tends to be a simple "No, not interested" and thats that. However some people, like the cartoonist here seem to treat a failed (male) advance as something horrible and mean, as if the guy knows he will be rejected but decides to try anyways just to be an inconvenience and a scumbag.
