Is this even that much of a real thing, though? Because I've heard countless men talk about this, about women using them for expensive dinners, or whatever. But there is no meal or entertainment that is worth enduring a shitty date (or even making the effort to be nice to a boring one) in my book, and I am pretty sure most women feel this way. Better to have a bowl of soup and some crackers at home in front of Netflix than, oh, I don't know, After8 DC and a show at the Birchmere with someone I don't like. And I think most women feel as I do. I think it more likely that what happens, on the regular, is that men get a date with someone out of their league and want sex (or even a commitment) immediately and so try to impress with an expensive date -- and then their ego needs to blame the woman's lack of interest on her looking for "free restaurant meals and entertainment tickets" when really the woman was looking, as most of us are, to make a real love connection, but they instead figured out the guy was gross and got the hell out of there.
