Hot Women Dont Want To Pay For Dinner

It is a down economy. Men would rather go dutch on a date. Guys, I have bad news. The more attractive your date is (yes!), the less likely she is going to help cover the dinner bill (d'oh!). A British study — naturally — reveals that hot women do not think they should have to pay on a date. Less attractive women are more willing to chip in. Why?

But they are not worried about the expense - it is likely to be because they believe their date should pay for the pleasure of being with them, according to researchers at St Andrews University. The intriguing finding comes from a study of 416 men and women who were asked to rate themselves for attractiveness, ahead of going on a series of hypothetical dates. In each case, they were shown a picture of their ‘date’, told to imagine they had been for dinner together, and asked to decide who should pay for the meal. They could decide to pay for the entire meal, nominate their date to pay or choose to split the bill. The answers revealed that the good-looking women were less likely to want to contribute towards the costs. Handsome men were also reluctant to splash the cash.
Researcher Michael Stirrat said: ‘They quite literally bring more to the table, so they expect the other person to pick up the tab or expect to pay for the bill.’ Things, however, may change, if the man wants to impress. The study, published in the journal Evolutionary Psychology, showed that a man is more willing to pay for a good-looking woman. Dr Stirrat said: ‘When a man offers to pay for the meal he is to some extent saying “I’m interested, I’d like a second date, I’d like to see you again”.’

Who should really pay on a date? The article consulted etiquette experts who say the person who requested the date must cover the cost. I have a different question. If an attractive woman expects a man to pay for dinner, what does the man expect in return? Ah, my friends, they did not cover that in the survey, but I think we know the answer.

But with women, the opposite is true. The study found that a woman expects a good-looking man to pay for her, perhaps as a way of making him invest in their future. The researcher said: ‘When the woman lets the man pay for her, she is basically saying she’d like a second date.’ It also means that if a woman does insist on paying, or at least making a contribution, it may be a sign that the date has not gone well. Dr Stirrat said: ‘If he is less attractive, she’d rather split the bill.’

Overall, some 45 per cent of the women said they would expect their date to pick up the entire tab, compared with just 30 per cent of the men. The favoured scenario, with both sexes, was splitting the bill or ‘going Dutch’, something that goes against etiquette, according to Debrett’s. The authority on manners, style and taste says the task of paying the bill should fall to the person who set up the date – no matter what they look like. Debrett’s director David Miller said: ‘There is one abiding rule when it comes to it – the person who requests the pleasure, pays for the pleasure.

Which leads me to another shocking headline: Sex Can Kill You. Or at least give you a coronary. Tufts researchers found that sudden bursts of activity — like sex — make it 2.7 times more likely someone will have a heart attack. Exactly how did they monitor and measure that? Still, frazzled housewives now have a better excuse for bowing out for the night than coming down with a headache. However, take heart. Your chances of avoiding a heart attack during sex improve if you get regular exercise.
