perfect example of not all women are like that. she's not happy about having to spend money on dating cuz she's used to getting a free ride. whereas not all girls are this anal about not wanting to spend any money.
PUAs are no better with regards to "scams and tricks". End of day we are all about maximizing productivity (getting laid) while minimizing costs (time and money). if there is an efficient way to getting that, we'll do it. moralities aside.
It's true that a lot of men just want to get laid. At least that's what they think they want, because often men will say they just want sex and then end up getting emotionally involved.
But in theory at least, women also like sex so they shouldn't be offended. Nor should it surprise them that men are trying to get laid and talking with each other about techniques and strategies to get what they want.
Women creating forums where they discuss how to scam men out of their money, though, is something that a lot of men would be shocked to find out about. I wonder if they have another forum for how to mug old people and steal their pensions.
I think it's worthwhile to read about their tricks in order to identify these kinds of women and avoid them. It just confirms what I suspected about a lot of women already because although they will never admit it, you can often see what women are after from the way they behave.
One thing you really have to watch out for is paying for small things at first which ends up just being the thin edge of the wedge. I know a lot of Americans are used to paying for dates, but the problem with this is that you're giving an incentive for women to come out with you just for the free food and drink. I think it's best to avoid any kind of elaborate or expensive date the first few times at least.
Somewhere else in their forum, they have some rules which they follow in order to be a high-quality skank. One of them is "never go out with a man for free". Which basically is saying that they are hos. I've been on dates where I could see that a woman wanted to do something expensive or wanted to eat something just because she assumed I would pay... and these are the women that you have to just get rid of as quickly as possible and never see again. Going somewhere cheap weeds them out, because someone that actually likes you won't care whereas one of these skanks will be going up the walls.
