Public Standards

When a guy says "I'd hit it", he's definitely not lying, but he isn't exactly telling the whole truth.  The reality of the situation is that he'd hit that, and pretty much every other thing, given the right set of circumstances.  If guys were being honest, they wouldn't talk about standards, they'd talk about circumstances; for really bad cases, it might mean he has to be drunk, at 2 am, then the doorbell rings, and there's not a witness in sight.
 
So when a guy says "I'd hit it", what he's really saying is "I'd admit to it".
