Erin Wotherspoon is a self-proclaimed dinner-digger.
The 24-year-old Toronto actress has left a bad taste in some mouths after allegedly duping men into first dates in exchange for a free dinner at high-end restaurants and then blogging about the experience.
But the 5-foot-6 striking blonde insisted Tuesday she’s not out to hurt anyone.
“I truly don’t think what I’m doing is that awful. I talk to so many people who said that first dates rarely work out anyway. So what if a guy spends an extra $20?” she told the Toronto Sun.
“My purpose really isn’t to dupe men. My purpose is to eat in really nice restaurants on dates. It’s just none of the ones I’ve been on have been leading to other dates or there isn’t any chemistry.”
On her Tumblr blog, A Penniless Girl, Bad Dates and Plenty of Oysters, Wotherspoon declares that she’s got “a pretty face and a pretty extensive urban spoon wish list.”
“We all know that getting what you want in life can be tough. Which is why I’ve decided to let someone else finance my dreams. My dream? To eat in pretty restaurants without costing me a penny. You had me at Elk Tartare, lost me at chin strap. Follow me to learn who I screw over, bang and love as I navigate Toronto’s diners, drive-ins and dives,” reads her blog introduction.
Wotherspoon said she has met people online on dating sites such as OKCupid and even J-Date, the service that sets up Jewish couples, despite being not of that faith. She also said she’s looking to date newly-landed immigrants who haven’t heard of her scheme.
“Man, that’s some pretty scummy behaviour,” wrote one user on Reddit.
But the Canadian Association for Equality — a men’s rights group — said at least she’s being somewhat honest about her intentions by posting publicly on her blog.
“I don’t assume that she sees a long-term harm being caused by this,” said Ruben Avila, a fellow advisor for the organization.
Since the blog’s launch in August, Wotherspoon said she has been on seven dates. The first one was the worst complete with lacking physical attraction and lacking conversation, so she dined and then dashed.
But her most memorable was the second date. She had a feeling he knew her ruse and it was confirmed when he handed her an envelope with a note that said she was picking up the cheque.
“He found out on Facebook because we had mutual friends,” she said. “My reaction was embarrassment. I didn’t know how he was going to take it.”
At the end of the evening, they agreed to split the bill. There’s a photo of her on the blog making a pouty-face and holding up her credit card.

NewsFlash: You ain’t all that, honey.
This beeatch is a learning example for men looking for Ms Right. The very first thing an urban guy should do is to google the name of a girl he intends to date - that implies he MUST know her full name beforehand.
I sincerely hope some guy finds out about her beforehand and takes her to an expensive dinner and then excuses himself to the men’s room and leaves her ass with the check.
All you need to know to understand this whore is “I truly don’t think I’m doing anything wrong” / “see who I screw over”....
and you’ve got it right there.
Pretty doesn’t equal virtuous/kind/innocent/pure. Often a really nice veneer for a really awful person.
It’s more common than just among those who publicly write about the experience. A friend of mine in NYC (who wouldn’t date me but remained friends) has confessed that she’s done this a few times.
Meeting someone in public then asking to go out affords greater accountability than just being someone on a dating site who doesn’t run in the same circles you do.
Poetic justice would be a blog site dedicated to guys recounting banging her for the price of a dinner.
So?! How is this different from most other young, attractive girls? Most of these guys probably loved having the opportunity to dine with her.
If she spent a little time under the table, all would be forgiven.
We know what she is, now we’re just haggling over the price of the meal.
Wow, um right. Must be some pretty lonely guys. Certainly not bad looking, but definitely very pedestrian looking.
Something tells me she’d be offended if I told her, “Sorry honey, you have to suck this before we go to dinner.”
Guilty!!
And BJ Clinton deems her ineligible for a post-POTUS pardon.
Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty.
I don’t care what she physically looks like. She is guilty pond scum.
One word. Denny’s. That’ll learn her.
Looking at her right there, you can tell what she is going to look like in a few short years: Rode hard and put away wet.
And when her youth and self-perceived beauty is gone in a shorter time than she thinks, she is going to be one hard, leathery looking miserable obnoxious, and lonely piece of work.
I pity her.
Why, Billy Jeff, when did you sneak in here?
>> but definitely very pedestrian looking.
Yep, pedestrian... she’ll walk all over you.
