The speaker argues that asking for a kiss directly won't ruin the moment. Movies show unrealistic romance, but real life can be more respectful. Asking for consent doesn't have to be awkward, and straightforward communication beats the myth of smoothness.
Let's ask this question then. Why don't people just ask? Why don't they just ask for a kiss? By the way, is romance always going to be as passionate as you see it in movies and film? No, but can it be more respectful than what you see in TVs and film? Yes or no? Yes. Yes, it can. So why don't we just ask? Give me reasons you think people go for it instead of asking. You told me that to start today. Hey, Mike, most people go for it. Why? Yes. Kind of spoils the moment. Yeah, that it's going to ruin the moment. It's going to make it awkward, right? Now, why is that funny? Because that means you actually think you're smooth. I don't mean you. I mean society as a whole, right? How many of you ever watched one of your friends try to hook up? How many agree it's one of the funniest things you will ever observe in your life? You're not smooth. Get over it.
