The etiquette of intersexual drink-buying at bars -- a primer for men and women

You know, I hate it when girls ask me to buy them drinks at the bar after a short conversation. I never buy them drinks when they ask. See, I might offer to buy a drink. Over my dead body some broad takes that drink I buy her, walk away and talk to another dude. I wouldn't mind buying my bro 20 drinks a night (actually if they're broke, I'll just tell my friends to order whatever they want on my tab and inform the bartender too)... but if a girl asks for me to buy her a drink. This is what I usually do: ~~~ Get the bartender's attention and tell him that I need 2 drinks. 1 margarita (for me) and tap water for this beautiful lady.

Buying drinks for strangers has always been a sucker move. Even Richard Feynman covered that topic in his books.

I thought Feminism would have resulted in women feeling more relaxed and empowered to buy the drinks. Guess that economics trumps you-go-girl feminism.

I hate bard for a number of reasons, and i hate the dating game for many more. This is just an intersection.
