What's in this drink?

Get over your hold out

What's the sense in hurting my pride?

Why can't you see, how can you do this to me?

Sorry, it sounds like the run up to coerced sex or date rape. It sends a bad message to men and boys- that it's ok to needle a woman until she gives in.

None of it is "innocent" fun. It's pressured sex and it has lifelong impact if it happens to you.

MY dogs begs much more than that and I can still say no.

---

Your dog speaks? And makes you drinks? Wow!

Begging is begging, you can always say no....

how come no one mentions that the "man" is looking out for the womans safety? she has been drinking......why should she NOT stay.....she should not be drinking and driving. the weather is bad outside and snowing.....why should she potentially get into an accident when she can stay at his place and be safer off of the roads?

During the 1940s, when Hollywood celebrities attended parties, they were expected to perform. In 1944, Frank Loesser wrote "Baby, It's Cold Outside" for his wife, Lynn Garland, and himself to sing at a housewarming party in New York City at the Navarro Hotel. They sang the song to indicate to guests that it was time to leave. Loesser often introduced himself as the "evil of two Loessers" because of the role he played in the song.[1]

Garland wrote that after the first performance, "We become instant parlor room stars. We got invited to all the best parties for years on the basis of 'Baby.' It was our ticket to caviar and truffles. Parties were built around our being the closing act." In 1948, after years of performing the song, Loesser sold it to MGM for the 1949 romantic comedy Neptune's Daughter. Garland was furious. She wrote, "I felt as betrayed as if I'd caught him in bed with another woman."[1]

In the film, "Baby, It's Cold Outside" was sung by Esther Williams and Ricardo Montalbán, then by Betty Garrett and Red Skelton, who reversed the roles. The song won the Academy Award.[2][3]

Whether she's safer at his place rather than on the road is debatable.

LOL, only if you think it is a bad song with the wrong message.

There are many good men in this world.  Not everyone has evil intentions.

Thanks goodness for that. And thank goodness women today are aware there are men with evil intentions too. And we know how to spot them. Coercing a woman to stay overnight is a big red flag.

so @bathina if you had a man in your home who had been drinking and the roads were bad, you would not suggest or "coerce" him to stay in your home.....and hopefully taking away his keys?
