I'm speaking, in general.
The fact that the man would lose
points if he made the suggestion, is a testament to the entitlement the woman has, to not paying.
"How dare he suggest I pay!!"

.
That kind of shiit^...that kind of
reaction.
Because, men have
traditionally put women on pedestals, and men have
traditionally been weak and having scarcity mindsets.
But that's not what is (and has) been pushed to society now, is it?
A man shouldn't withhold taking women out on dates.
But he
should withhold taking them out on PAY dates...women that he
doesn't know, or who haven't
earned access to his wallet.
That's my only
beef.
Women do the same thing with their V....no access to their V until they "get to know you".
Well, as men, no access to our..
1. Non-sexual attention.
2. Money.
Until we get to
know you.
See how that
should work?
Those two things should be
valued by men, and
earned by women.
And on that first no-pay date, the man should be monitoring and gauging (testing) her reactions to his building of
sexual tension..and if the chemistry is there, and it is genuine, then that determines whether he should proceed further with her, and let things blossom from there.
I agree, it is literally the
same concept.
Unfortunately, looking for substance and depth will give most men
all the more reason to simp out.
