A funny viral video is sweeping the Internet that explores the question, “what would happen if women acted like men at bars?”
Director Jay Diaz gives us a look at his perception of what it would be like, complete with the requisite cheesy pick-up lines, offers of rounds of drinks and shots, unwanted touching and grinding, and, of course the inauthentic promise to “call you” in his 3-minute short “The Flip Side.”
With over 1.1 million views since its posting on YouTube on February 4, The Flip Side offers a hilarious look at an “alternate universe where women act the way (Diaz perceives) men do at a bar,” said Jessica Pearce Rotondi of HuffingtonPost. “While I’m not sure that getting picked up is ever a one-way street (and last I checked, women can buy drinks for men, too), I did love watching these women using over-the-top lines like, ‘Are you sure you guys aren’t brothers?’ and one man at the bar with friends decline an advance from a gorgeous woman with ‘you seem like a nice person, but we’re just trying to catch up a bit.’ ”
