But also people are now more: A) more sexual with who they date B) are friends more with the opposite sex. I still recall that when I was in high school, my mother was confused how I had both a girlfriend and several…
Eh, it depends on who you hang around and how you've grown up - what you stated is just one specific example. The somewhat ambiguous way he described it "The term is widely in use, and refers to the exchange of physical…
lol, creep perhaps. But hardly confident :p
This may just boil down to semantics, but I would call the hypothetical "confident man" you are talking about a confident, socially skilled man. My "confident creep" has inner confidence in his abilities (he might even…

This post teaches us all a valuable lesson: always frame the question before, not after, asking it. People stop reading after the '?'
Just out of curiosity: Is Feynman using 'sleep with' as a euphemism for sex? I'm guessing that, this story being written in the 1940s/50s, pre-sexual revolution, that it is more referring to sleeping with a some low…
