I wanted to ask the LW commentariat what they thought of the morality of the "false time constraint" PU ploy. I'm hereby prefacing that discussion with a meta-inquiry as to whether that conversation should even be opened at all. (The contentious ongoing discussion I found when I came here to make the query has made me gun-shy.)

How about you ask this again when the present PUA type discussion (which has already devolved to some flame waring, in places) calms down?

OK.

Less supplication!
