an quasi-medical diagnosis justifying an impulsive
behavior that is regretted the next
day. considered by men as the perfect
excuse for justifying seemingly inappropriate behavior or for stopping a perceived rejection by females.
11:30pm,
Mike texts with a "platonic", opposite sex
friend:
"Joy, send me dirty pics."
"
Um, ladies don't go first."
"How do I know you'll do it?"
"You don't."
(Mike sends uncensored pics of his dick.)
"Thank you."
The following day, Mike EMAILS Joy:
"I want to clear up yesterday. I was
drunk, and tired, and fell asleep. I woke up to my phone vibrating, and it was you responding to messages that I don't remember sending. Asking for pics? No joke, I was SLEEP TEXTING. So I apologize for all of that and for being out of line. It makes me nervous because I've never done that before! What if I SLEEP TEXT someone that I shouldn't, and I get kicked out of
school?"
