Most of this sounds dated, but it is still good advice for people, not just for women.
- grooming in front of your date looks bad, male or female
- drinking excessively is also a bad idea. If you can’t tolerate your date while sober, end the date.
- both crying and looking bored are rude, again whether male or female. If you cannot even pretend interest while looking for a better topic, end the date
- flirting with another person during a date is rude
I don’t see most of the advice as unique to women only. Don’t adjust your bra in front of him? Okay. But men should not adjust their anatomy either. The only advice that does not have a close parallel for men is bad advice for women too. No, I don’t want to date a woman who sits in an uncomfortable position to “appeal” to me, nor do I want to talk with a woman who fakes interest in a topic instead of looking for a topic that is a shared interest.
Only part I might disagree with you on is the faking interest in a topic. The rest - right on! When I’m meeting and spending time with someone I don’t know, I try to get them talking about something about which they’re passionate. I might not know anything about it when they start talking, but I will always walk away with a lot more knowledge than when I arrived. That might lead to more interest. It might not. But there isn’t a time I regret learning about something I don’t know. So I guess I object to the phrase “faking it.”
Look, you feel when there is no there there, be polite and don’t burn bridges
You never know.
Sometimes that’s just bad timing
