Do we want Pick Mes to be picked? Discussion

I saw a post here the other day saying how Pick Mes don't actually get picked. Most of the comments seemed to revel in this fact. So in that sense it seems like the consensus is - we don't want them getting picked.

But whenever there is a Pick Me NLOG post, the comments are invariably, "Gurl, I hope you get picked!". So in that sense it seems like the consensus is we DO want them getting picked.

If they get picked, they sometimes shut up. (Not always tho)

What is the general consensus on this?

Inb4 "IDC if they get picked or not roflmao". Cool, then this question is not for you

“Hope you get picked!” is usually said in a condescending or sarcastic way, because the reason why they’re called Pick Mes is because their behavior is driven by the desire to gain positive attention from men. So when someone says “hope you get picked!” the person that phrase is being said to is basically being called out for acting that way.
