Can't have sex without asking, can't ask without having had sex? This makes no sense.
If you want to live in a society where people choose their partners based on mutual consent, then propositioning is necessary to make that work. Sometimes, you won't like the person who propositions you, because we aren't a society of mind readers.

We both know that's not how things work for human beings. You build relationships with people, and at varying speeds they become sexual. Relationships just don't magically become sexual because you ask for sex. If you can't pick up on signs, then that makes it more difficult, but no, you shouldn't just be propositioning women at random. This isn't, "Hey, would you like to go for a drink?" this is "Hey, you've got great lips, would you like me to put my tongue in your mouth?". The difference is obvious. One is totally alright, one is sexual harassment (when there is no relationship that indicates that comment would be acceptable).
If you think a good "feeling out" process for people of the opposite sex is to ask them if they want to make out or have sex, then I can't help you with that one.
I'm not saying Mooney was a bad dude. Just... not very good at interacting with female human beings apparently, to an uncomfortable and boundary breaking extent.
