Not too long ago, I overheard a woman I work with say, "If a guy doesn't have enough money to pay my way, he's clearly not worth my time or attention." Another once said, "I don't really care what my boyfriend does as long as he buys me things."
I remember thinking how pathetic this sounded at the time, but got to thinking about it later. I realized that, although most women might not come out and say it in the blunt manner of my less-than-subtle co-workers, the majority of them hold a similar opinion, and I for one think it's ridiculous.
