This is a pattern that if applied broadly feels guaranteed to spiral into the opposite of the desired outcome.

Be rude as a rule to men
Men interpret what was once ‘rude’ as normal behavior
Stepping positively outside the new normal gets interpreted as possible sexual interest
Now you are required to be even ruder baseline to avoid misinterpretation, and men just get treated worse socially.

  I can’t fathom being so sensitive and so chronically online that you need to post a genuine Response to a fucking jokey post about girls needing to be a little mean to make creepy dudes go away.
  
  Oh no, I’ve replied to a meme in a non-hostile way without downvoting it and boosted its platform visibility. How dare I?
  
  If you ever wonder, “Why am I single? Why won’t someone date me?” It’s because you say stupid shit like this. You’re not a victim, dude, so stop acting like one.
  
  Engaged, but appreciate the concern for my dating life.
