While a lot of people will say that this shows that a man with confidence and the ability to flirt is always successful with women, please keep in mind it was Mel Gibson at his height of popularity. It would be the same showing someone like Chris Hemsworth today or men from the past like Sean Connery or Clark Gable. Women saw the guy and were already attracted. If just an average guy tried acting like this and used the same lines and techniques, he'd be seen as a creep and possibly be accused of S.A. or harassment.
For the record, it was a point of the movie that he thought himself a suave ladies' man, but even if he managed to get laid sometimes, most women around actually had a low opinion of him or outright hated his guts, and his macho attitude was ultimately portrayed as a bad thing. I will say that with how stereotypical most female characters were it doesn't quite reach a proper feminist conclusion, but its heart and spirit are in the right place, if nothing else
This was how adults used to talk when trying to get to know people before it was all online swiping right! These days ‘playing hard to get’ often means ‘harassment victim’. It‘a a scary place for young men AND women!
I think you young people are the first generation in history who will never grasp the concept of 'context.' In the past, women did things that we used to call, "playing hard to get." They did this even when they liked a guy. They did this because it was seen as bad when women slept around with multiple guys. Now that that mindset is dying for the most part in western societies, for better or worse, your idea of "no means yes" is actually harrassment in modern times, is more appropriate since women are way more sexually promiscous and don't hide it anymore (especially since there are more options for birth control).

It was when he put a choice in front of her. Do you want me to stop asking you out? The truth was, she didn't. She was enjoying the attention.

What Women Want 2.0 script: An aging Gibson doesn't keep up with the times, and ends up getting physically attacked by large lesbians, and being jailed for creating unsafe spaces.
Hardly lol... Young men today are dealing with the fallout of previous generations. This movie isn't sci-fi, it's a case study, a time capsule. Women had to put up with all this shit, that's why today's gender animosity. Watch the Sean Connery Barbara Walters interview if you need to learn about how we ended up with such a ferocious PC culture. This universe operates on one cardinal principle: cause and effect.
An effort of analysis, but totally flawed. The self-righteousness is strong on this one. Flirting and roles of masculine dominance are not abnormal. Normalization of same-sex relationships, just to name an example, is abnormal. Not cause and effect but a gradual augmentation of evil, to a point where self-righteousness make some people like you judge the past from an ivory tower. The laws are still the same, is just some partial media discourse that attempts to normalize abnormality.

It's a bit funny how they always need to cast someone short to make the main character look taller. Or they feel the need to at least. I remember in "payback" with Mel Gibson, I actually liked how some of the cops dwarfed him. It makes the movie seem more genuine when they aren't trying to trick you into thinking people are tall. Mel is not short either and he's wide to where he doesn't look small.

She’s an actress and works in a coffee shop. What stress?

yea cause were all a bunch of soy boys and a nation full of man-hating women who wanna be men. They desperately want to be the exact same thing they hate now.
If you look at the body language it wouldn't be. She is flustered when talking, she laughs at his dumb joke about being grande. She keeps looking at his eyes. She doesn't reject his physical contact.
