The results are in: she only wanted to try that hot new restaurant.
A new study published Friday in the Society for Personality and Social Psychology journal found that a quarter to a third of heterosexual women have gone on a date with a guy they werent interested in just for a free meal.
Foodie calls, can happen when moneys tight, the grocery store is out of a favorite frozen meal, or a must-try entree is just too extravagant to justify when the tab comes out of your own bank account.
Two studies, the first conducted with 820 women, and the second with 327, asked participants if they ever engaged in a plate for play: 23% of the women copped to it in the first study, 33% in the second.

Him: why don’t we meet for coffee?
Her: “coffee? You’re taking me on a Starbucks date?”
Him: “Starbucks? You wish, they got free coffee at the bank”

You should see sometime what gets into women. Blow your mind away.

True. Some women are just as NUTS as some men.

You’re messed up if you think food and sex are equal and somehow balance themselves out.

What? You’re a little slow.
Some women just want the food and drink. Most men just want sex.
If you don’t understand that, I can’t help you.

I’ve gone on many dates hoping for a free taco, but it always costs a lot.

If paying for meals didnt work as a ritualistic display of ability and willingness to provide for a female mate, males wouldnt do it.
And in the old world, that display would have benefits. In the modern world, however, women have no need of a provider. They either earn their own money, or they have Uncle Sucker pay for everything. As a result, men who buy women (who they aren't already sleeping with) dinner now are simply demonstrating that they are marks, chumps, and suckers.

Its probably far more than just one third.Headline should read:
A third of women admit to only dating men because of free food - Other two-thirds expose selves as liars

The Pence Rule is the way forward for men. The "Pence Rule" is not applicable to the dating scene. I.e., it does not give any advice or lay down any rules about how men seeking a mate should behave.

For some reason I KNEW it was going to be that video!
“Oh you guys!”
The first two dates with my wife (30th Anniversary this year!) she paid. First one was breakfast (after meeting her at church). I forgot my wallet at home or in my truck, we took her car.
The second time I had left it in my truck in the parking lot at the restaurant and it was pouring down rain and she said that I shouldn’t run out there.
She tells the kids “I’m glad I was still young or I would never have married your dad. I wouldn’t stand for that crap now!”
Funny though - she STILL pays for dinners out. I hate spending money at restaurants, but she enjoys our weekly outing. But - she has to pay for it. Joint bank account - but this way she can enjoy it, but I don’t have to see how much it was!

And who said prostitution isn't alive and well! “....In addition to egotism (with a side of truffled mashed potatoes to-go) Collisson said foodie callers are more likely to engage in one-night stands, faking an orgasm, or sending unsolicited sexual pictures.....”
I can see why NY State wants to legalize sex work, not sure it is a good thing, but......
