No thanks...

I'm a little surprised at the unanimous er, arousal, over at xojane at this line from the over-blogged and much maligned girls:
"The "thing" is this line, which happened at the end of a scene in which Marnie, who has a boyfriend, engages in a flirtation with a pretentious artist she meets at an opening. The line is delivered after Marnie informs him that she's not going to kiss him."
In full: "I want you to know, the first time I fuck you I might scare you a little. Because I'm a man, and I know how to do things."

Maybe I'm showing my age, but depending on the deliverer of said line I'd either a) run, b) laugh, or c) say something equally silly like "Not if I scare you first." (Or  better yet, "I'm a woman and I know the power of a restraining order.") Tell me I'm not alone: is this the least sexy thing to ever come from a scriptwriter's pen?
